Casual Friday + Moments of the Week

This is going to be embarrassing.

If you follow me on Twitter, you probably know that I moved this week.  The whole process of moving gets two giant thumbs down from me.  

So in lieu of a "Casual Friday Outfit Post," I thought I would share an embarrassing photo of myself as I really look right now.

Why?  

Because I have no energy to clean myself up, my new house is a mess, my husband has been out of town all week which is stressful during a move, and gosh darn it...sometimes I just want to make sure y'all know that this girl doesn't pretend to be perfect!  


So yeah...that is how I look right now.  No heels :)

Moments of the Week


"He Strikes Again!" Moment
Okay, so some of you may remember THIS being in the recycle bin of my high-rise building a few weeks ago.  
Well, I'm taking boxes out on Tuesday and here is what I find:

I suppose it IS Playboy's "lingerie edition"...so this guy must have some class :)
But again...wouldn't you at least try to cover it up?  

"Speaking of Sexy-Time" Moment
Just had to share this image of my Bogey at the Dog Park the other day.  Could he possibly look any happier (note the tail wag)? 

Shameless Bogey.  Just shameless...

"Umm...Thank you??" Moment

One of my movers is picking up a wedding photo featuring myself and the husband.  He looks at it...looks at me...looks at it again.  Then the following exchange took place:

Mover:  "Is this you?"
Me:  "Um, yes."  
(thinking to myself that it would be strange if we kept large wedding photos of another couple on our wall...)
Mover:  "Huh.  Doesn't look like you all that much.  You clean up nicely."

So do you forgive me for today's outfit?  Please?!  :)

Oh that pic of bogey made me snort. Remember that song The Humpty? That's what I am picturing. Priceless!!

Maria DaintyandDecadent said...

You look adorable with your cute belly! :-)

Becca said...

At least he's a consistent recycler!

Chelsea I said...

Love it! You still look totally cute with "messy hair" and workout clothes. We are going through the exact same thing over here. My husband and I are moving back down to DC this weekend. He's been away the past two nights at "good-bye happy hours" so I made him wake up at 5:30am to do some of the "too heavy for me" packing. Good Luck settling in and preparing for the little one :)

judy said...

But you still look gorgeous!!!! Congrats on the new home, looking forward to the babies room!!! That doggie and in front of mother!!!!

Nikki said...

Real life isn't always full of glamour! You look amazing for a woman who is pregnant and in the middle of a move. An inspiration for all!!

Laura said...

Congrats on the new house! Moving totally is a pain, I can't imagine doing it while your hubby is gone! And too funny about your neighbor's magazine "collection" - some people have no shame!

Michelle in N. Cal said...

thanks for making me laugh! You look gorgeous au natural as well. Good luck with your move!

Audrey said...

Good luck unpacking Marion! What's funny is that your outfit is pretty much what I wear every weekend. Are you pants from Lululemon? If so, I have the same exact ones :)

Tara St said...

We lost our newspaper recycling privileges in my building because someone threw a mattress into the bin. At least your neighbors throw paper items in there...even if they are weird paper items.

Man...I miss you!!! You look AMAZING...as usual! Love you gorgeous! :)

Lisa B said...

Isn't it funny that we all post pics of us all done up and pretty, when I'm sure most of the time we are in comfy clothes! Don't get me wrong, I love my "nice clothes", but sweats and a t-shirt are so comfortable!

I just found your blog and I love your sense of humor. As for your post today, it's nice to see that you're real like the rest of us!

Tiffany said...

I am half laughing/half crying at the wedding picture comment. Oh my gosh, people really need to think before they speak! Good thing you have a good sense of humor and can laugh it off :) And, btw, you look fine right now. No need for fancy clothes all the time, right?

MrsChristyO said...

Love it! Thanks for making me smile. Hope next week is better for you

I moved in July and it was super stressful with a toddler so I can only imagine moving while pregnant and with the hubby gone! Glad you made it!!

Mess or no mess, you're a gorgeous lady my friend!
Have a great weekend.

I think you are still gracefully beautifully despite all thats going on with the move. Be sure to rest.

CC said...

I HATE moving! (11 times in almost 14 years of marriage will do that) So sorry you had to do it sans hubby (and preggers) Bless your heart!
And you are still gorgeous, even in your work out clothes. Seriously.

I have a giveaway going on - I'd love for you to come check it out!
