Here's what we've been up to as of late:

I finished reading Wicked, we painted our driveway and are in the process of installing a new closet organizer in our guest bedroom.

 

Okay, so Wicked was good, even great, but mind-blowingly not the child fairy tale type that one might expect it to be, like those of which I adored from L. Frank Baum. As previously mentioned, I have a love for Oz-ish things, so I have read all 14 of Baum's series of tales about the land of Oz. Wicked introduced adult themes such as sex and politics into my land of Oz. It was a little disconcerting at first but was interesting nonetheless. My friend who lent me the book is in New York right now and plans to see Wicked on Broadway while she is there. Lucky Duck!

 

(UPDATE: She was unable to go to New York because of the blizzard and bad weather conditions that were plauging that area at the time.)

 

As for the home repairs, our driveway was looking shabby and our HOA has been on our back to tidy it up. Hubby says I stacked too much stuff on the closet shelf and caused it to rip out of the wall. That is the reason for the new closet organizer.

 

I mentioned sneaker wedges in my last post and that I'd post some pictures, so I've gathered some images of this new style and compiled them here for your viewing  pleasure. I made a sneaker wedge collage and spiffied it all up using a website called piZap.

 

I will close with this.

So here they are... my beloved sneaker wedges:
