Random Wednesday

Blazer: F21 | Top: Kohl's | Shorts: Gap Outlet | Shoes: F21 | Necklace & Bracelet: F21


I don't know about you guys, but my allergies are about to take my life. I have been down and out since Sunday evening. Blowing my nose, running fever, sore throat, blah, blah, blah.

Nothing came to my mind for this post, so since my head is a little stuffy and cloudy, I thought I would share some random thoughts. Call it, "I can't think of anything else to write about kind of day."

1. The X-Factor starts tonight! I can't wait to have Simon Cowell back in my life. An added bonus, Brit-Brit will be gracing us with her presence. Yes, Momma loves her some Britney Spears. I could do without Demi Lovato. Simon should have grabbed Steven Tyler the second American Idol gave him the boot.

2. Logan (my oldest) lost her third tooth. Ross and I have both felt so crummy lately that we didn't know each of us left money under her pillow. Communication break down. It happens in a marriage, right? Good for Logan because she got double bucks from the tooth fairy. She woke up and said, "Wow, I guess the tooth fairy REALLY liked my tooth."

3. Who else has had dreams about other bloggers? I know there are at least three of us out there because I have had one, someone has had one about me and another blogger told me it happens to her all the time. Any others want to step up and admit to this?

4. Last but not least, have any of you heard of this site called Wanelo? Please tell me I am not that far out of the loop. Sara blogged about this yesterday and it just might be my new addiction. Think Pinterest meets Etsy meets major online shopping. When you see something you like, you can actually buy it. Genius! You can set up your own category feeds (fashion, home, kids, entertainment and tech), or search for anything you want. Be scared, be very scared. Be prepared spend some serious time on this site. Thanks, Sara. Thanks a lot. Just what I needed!

So, there you have it, some Wednesday Randoms! I hope you enjoyed.

P.S. Don't forget about the HUGE reader appreciation giveaway going on right now. You won't want to miss out!

Loving loving loving the dots, we must of been in the same frame of mind for our posts this week ;)

And I was cracking up, evidently our alarm clocks our set for the same time, the past few weeks our link up are right beside each others ;)

We have felt bad also! Sorry you have felt so crummy

Andrea said...

Sorry you are feeling so crummy! Our allergies are kicking us in the booty down here too! I have had dreams about bloggers and blogging too! So funny! This new website you are telling us about...sounds dangerous for me if there is online shopping involved! But I think I need to check it out since I'm slightly addicted to Pinterest and Etsy! Hope you start feeling better soon!

How cute are you?! Love this outfit and totally going to check out wanelo... how had I not heard of it!?

Unknown said...

OMG. I definitely have dreams about other bloggers! I feel like it's sort of creepy, but I'll admit it since you are too. Also, I had no idea that Steven Tyler got the boot from AI. Simon definitely should've scooped him up. And lastly, I hope you feel better AND I love your outfit!! Happy Wednesday!

Allie said...

Love the mixed polka dots! It goes so well together! Annnddd, I'm secretly excited about X Factor too. I don't always stay current on TV shows like that {only sitcoms}, but I do love me some Simon! Have a great night love! xx, Allie

I have dreams about bloggers all the time. Once I had a dream that my two bloggy friends Shay and Amy had to come save me from a kidnapper because Jestina (bff AND blog friend) was too busy sleeping to come save me.

And I'm glad we can be friends because people who don't like Britney cannot be my friend.

TheTinyHeart said...

Loving the dots on dots, Shanna! I've have dreams about other bloggers too. It makes sense...we spend so much time reading other blogs :)Thanks for the reminder about X Factor. I like The Voice better (hello, Adam Levine!) but I'm curious to see Brit as a judge.

No I dream about having sex with rock stars! And then right when I am about to French kiss Jon Bon Jovi I get woken up by some creature that wants cereal. I got bigger fish to fry than blogger dreams but one day.

Sarah said...

Alright, I'll admit it too! I have dreams about other bloggers too! And daydreams that we will all go on one huge vacation together!

Thanks a lot to you for that site... :)

My allergies have been off the charts too! Thankfully my routine of claritin in the morning and benadryl before bed is doing the trick. Love those dots on dots:)

Always Maylee said...

Ahh dots on dots! How could I not love this outfit. You look so cute Shanna! I don't think I've had dreams about other bloggers, but I'm pretty sure now that this idea is in my head, my dreams will be flooded with my bloggy friend. :)

Chris said...

Your closet must be amazing... I want pictures! Sorry you're not feeling good. My allergies are bad too. I literally want to rip my nose from my face.

Lindsay said...

Love the all those polka dots. So cute! I would like that blazer and that shirt all to myself...k? And this is gonna sound really creepy but the bloggers that I have been reading for years and years are always in my dreams and in my dreams they are my really good friends. Creepy huh? Definitely should not have admitted that out loud...

Franziska said...

I'm sick too :( I had to stay home from work today and just sleep.

I love your outfit today. It's so cute with the double polka dots, fancy but casual with the shorts. plus your hair looks fab today :)

Unknown said...

I have to admit too that I have dreamed about other bloggers as well. LOL. Honestly some of them are a great inspiration. Well, to me I get inspired by some of my fellow bloggers than some model in a magazine. I hope you understand what I mean...LOL. Love your outfit and you look amazing like always. :)

Shanna, you are too dang cute. Sorry to hear about your allergies. They are NO BUENO. Do allergy relief medicines not work for you? And whyyyyy did you tell me about Wanelo? I do not have time to get addicted to anything else, but I took a peek at Wanelo and now I have to use all of my energy not to jump on board.

Lacey S said...

Someone told me about Wanelo earlier this week! I signed up and browsed for a few minutes but then clicked on the little X before I got completely sucked in. I put Wanelo on my "to do" list lol

Annie said...

I'm going to check out the site as well! Then again, maybe I shouldn't. I don't need anything else to keep me from doing what I really need to be doing. Oh, and I'm so glad that I'm not the only one with a soft spot for Britney; her music (and her body, most times) ROCKS!
