Hunting For That Cookie Monster--

I've been on a mission to search and destroy the Cookie Monster. Yeap! you heard right. Although I'm talking about a virus called the Cookie Monster that I somehow got. Maybe it explains why I can't access some of my favorite blogs anymore(http://www.byhillary.com/) is one of them.

  Awhile back on Twitter I got a private message that someone had blogged something bad about me or said something mean and it had a link so of course being new to Twitter and natural human curiosity I clicked the link. Well it turns out it was a virus that a blogger I followed got and it hacked her account and sent out that message to everyone she followed on her Twitter. Thank goodness I didn't get hacked or the virus then but now I'm wondering if my Twitter is hacked and it's sending out messages from me and people are dropping me like flies.

So if you get a message from say Twitter,pinterest,blogger,email etc...and it seems weird, don't click it,open it etc...

This is the second time I've tried writing this post. Blogger is acting funny too...maybe it's something to do with this new process they are going too...working out the kinks!

anyway...I did a diagnostic search & destroy on my computer and found the problem.  My antivirus protection found and quarantined a virus called Cookie Monster...The only freaking Cookie Monster I want lives on Sesame St. and we stopped watching him years ago! :) So perhaps it wasn't my twitter being hacked and yes I do let the kids use the computer so...God only knows what sites they go to. Thank goodness I have decent protection.

Everything I'm wearing is from Goodwill except the Shoes. I bought them on etsy and will do a review soon.

Thrift till the Sun Comes Out--

On a perfectly rainy day, what is better to do then a little thrifting?

I love listening to the rain and thunder all while perusing the racks at thrift stores. It puts me in the no worry or rush zone and I can shop at my leisure

. Here are a few new things I'm loving in my shop. I really love that fringe bag. It had a silver, western look cabochon wrapped within the fringe that I didn't like. I removed it and put a book on the leather fringe to straighten it from being wrapped and twisted so long through the silver cabochon.  Now I feel it's more versitile and hip and just might keep it for myself. That's my problem with thrift shopping for my etsy shop; I just might keep most of what I intended to sell.

Not All Roses--

I really love to put modern and vintage pieces together. Today I decided to wear a skirt my Mom sent me, but I've not got around to wearing. It's a cute floral print that buttons all the way down. I've always admired other bloggers who put turquoise and red together and I've wanted to try that combination myself. I accessorized with pops of red, even adding a red daisy scarf to my vintage bag. I'm off to the library then grocery store.
