Walking for Anthropologie

And so it begins. I will be waking up early to go walking before the baby wakes up and I have to get ready for work. Am I doing this for better health? Sure. That goes without saying. If I’m going to be honest, however, my motivation also includes a deep desire to fit into whatever I want from Anthropologie.  The occasional top or cardigan just isn’t going to cut it anymore! I’ve had a baby. I’ve nursed him. It’s time for that cute skirt hanging in my closet to actually fit over my hips again. This also affords me time with my tunes, which leads me to the introduction of a regular feature here at My Little Thought Bubbles… “My Personal Soundtrack.” Today’s entry is “A Perfect Day Elise” by PJ Harvey. Miss Polly Jean will likely find her way into this feature on a regular basis because she’s fabulous, though I admit that today her cute outfit and haircut played through my head and kept me going at a brisk pace. “I too will have this look if I just keep going.” We shall see…

Today is the beginning of an era for me, one which includes a blog. Today is the end of an era for France, one in which French president Nicolas Sarkozy is voted out of office. While I promise to never write about politics here, I am including this bit because it's French and it was fun being able to look at the French president as a man who was so French that he married the fabulous Carla Bruni, whom he met at an exclusive party. (Nevermind that she's Italian. She spent enough of her childhood in Paris to be honorary) In honor of your era Monsieur Sarkozy, here is my favorite song from Carla. My apologies for the fact that it's about the father of her other child. What can you do...
