Staycation!!!

A nice staycation was in order for me last week.  I had a glorious 10 days away from work and the end that glorious time off, I decided to head to DC for a weekend with my beau.  Unfortunately, we were planning on spending a whole Saturday afternoon wandering through DC and visiting museums, but what is normally a 3 hour drive actually took us 8 hours, so those plans were smashed.  But we did treat ourselves to a really awesome dinner at this place called Dirty Martini and then spent the following morning walking all around DC for about 3 hours.  It's amazing how much ground you can cover in 3 hours of walking!!!

 

Thankfully, after hours of walking around DC we were able to retire to a really sweet hotel.  Seriously, if you're in DC you have to stay at the Mayflower!!!  I've never been to a hotel so pretty and hospitable!

Bar Night

I'm not sure about you, but I enjoy visiting a bar that feels cozy and fun.  I'm definietly not one to go out to dance clubs (too loud) so I enjoy the more simpler pleasures of heading out with my guy and friends for an evening of drinks and pool.  I mean, the dudes even play chess at this bar.  That's how cozy it really is.

Changing Direction

My life has changed so dramatically in the last year.  And accordingly, my blog tastes have changed as well.  You have already noticed that I haven't updated my blog since August.  Life slowed down for me in a way and then sped up.  I have seriously limited my time on the internet in the past few months and have started living life and finding beauty in everyday things.  While I do enjoy this new point in my life, I've noticed I haven't been documenting it!!!  I was given a wonderful gift of my Nikon and lately its been a dust collector.

Now, I have come to a point in my life where I can better handle my time management with life, internet, and finding the beauty in the day to day life.  I can't wait to change the direction of my blog!!!  I am keeping the blog url, in case you want to follow along, but have changed the title.  This may or may not be a temporary decision.  I hope that when I do change the url, that you all decided to continue to follow along!!!  But this direction is also a little more personal for myself.

So, as you may have guessed by this point,  I am now a lifestyle blogger.  No longer a style blogger.  But I do plan on throwing some cute outfits in the blog on a weekly basis.  Just for kicks, ya know?  hehe..
