Hello Friends!! Sorry it’s been forever and a day… traveling is fun (kind of) but I always get behind on LIFE!! Hope everyone had a great start to the week. It’s Wednesday, so it’s time for another From Grandma with Love!
Today, I’m sharing this beautiful black and white applique dress. You wouldn’t think much of it on the hanger, but wowsa… it sure does make me feel gorgeous when I have it on. I automatically feel so much more ladylike. And because of the applique placement shape and color, I seem to be well more endowed than I actually am! Yay for optical illusions that make you look skinnier or have bigger boobs! Hey, that never makes me upset! ;) And of course, I went for trusty gold heels and a black bag for accessories.
Anyhow, this month has flown by already! Of course, I have so many things on my to-do lists… but it never gets finished. I’m trying out some new “organization” techniques with that time blocking I mentioned in the last post. Please share ANY secrets (apps, organizers, etc.) that you have for staying on top of things!

That dress is beautiful, love the detailing! :)
I’m finding setting aside blocks of time to tackle a to-do list helps! Except email, I always have email at the bottom of my list and so it gets bumped frequently. I’m a shocker with email haha. I have a little to-do list each day with priorities and as soon as I get time (usually nap time!) I power through the list.
