Woke up this morning and wasn't ready to start the day.  So I squished my toes against my hubby's, stayed in bed, and battled the clock.  Time won, it always does.  Feeling defeated, I wiggled my toosh out of bed, and literally sat in my closet, for like an hour.  Ever do this?  You know - a closet full of clothes and nothing to wear.   So I pondered.  I rummaged.  Threw something on.  Fiddled with it.  Threw something off.  And continued to battle the clock.  Frustrated, I looked in the very back of my closet, under a pile clothes, and pulled out this old skirt I've owned since my high school days.  I swear, she whispered, "Wear me, just like you used to on those hot summer days.  You loved me so much.  But you moved on to those skanky minis and those stiff high-waisted pencils."  I told my boho skirt that she was being jealous, but, agreed to old times.  I'd simply update her to something still laid back, just more pulled together.  It's great when you can find something old just lying around and reinvent it in a way you never thought.  Pulled it up to my waist, cinched it with a belt, threw on some college heels and walked out the door.  And honestly, after all that deliberation, I feel pretty good about it.  So with that, I stick my nose at the clock and claim my victory.
