This and That on Friday

Greetings all!

Can I get a hip-hip-hooray
it's Friday!
My favorite day of the week!  :)
 
A bit of randomness this week for you!
 
 Look at my Safety Patrol Girl -
is she the most adorable ever?
Yes?
 I agree!
Although 6th grade has more homework (and it's harder too)
Maddy has volunteered for a few school activities
. . .
including
Safety Patrol
(delays her departure from school)
and
Choir
(requires once a week early arrival
and giving up an extra recess on Fridays)!
and
Daughters of Mary
(after-school prayer group once a month).
All of these are extras and not required,
but she is delighted to be able to
participate . . .
although she really hates
to miss that extra recess!

Sparky from Frankenweenie!
 
In her free-time, she is
doing drawings of
various Disney characters!
She just looks at a picture
and starts to draw!
Quite amazing to me
as I never evolved past stick-figures!
 
And, what do you think - do you like these shoes?
I have kind of avoided flats as I need a little bit
more in the height department.
But, I have finally accepted that I am probably not going to ever be
a tall drink of water (or whatever that weird saying is) 
and why hurt my feet in uncomfortable shoes???

 
Some ballet flats are not too comfy as there
is simply not enough shoe.
But these are Dr. Scholl's and have some support
and style, at least I think so, don't you agree?!
And it's been chilly --
 time to find some fake Uggs*!
I'm sure the real things are fabulous - but the Fuggs
are quite comfy too and I definitely like the price! :)
 Shopping is on the schedule!
 
A much-needed hair appointment is also
on the schedule -
what to do with my sometimes
frizzy mop poodle-head??? 
 
Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!
See  you on Monday! :)

Sounds like Maddy is keeping busy but enjoying her new activities. She makes an adorable safety patrol girl. Love those shoes. I'm always searching for comfortable/supportive but cute shoes. Us "feet surgery" gals need to stick together. Thanks for the tip. Enjoy your weekend!

Enjoy your weekend! Love the shoes, I have decided practical shoes are better than pain when you stand on cement floors all day.

Definitely go with the comfy shoes over the heels for added height.

Have a great weekend!

It sounds like Maddy is having sooo much fun in school this year! Love the safety patrol picture and love your new shoes! I must get on Zappos and find some comfy shoes too! You have inspired me!
