Currently September

I am finally joining up with Farley for her Currently September! I read so many of these over the summer and always thought "Oh, they're so cute, I will get around to making my own next month"and never did. I finally made one! So here goes:
Ya'll let me explain about this running errands in advance thing. I never realized this before but when a either the DNC or the RNC comes to a city, they basically shut the city down for the entire week. Schools are closed, businesses are closed, our big corporations like Bank of America and Wells Fargo are closing their downtown offices and their employees have to work from home. All of this mostly because they have to shut down many of the major roads. My school is not closed all week, but we are closed on Thursday because even MORE roads are closed and the buses would not be able to get to the students to pick them up. 

I never really put much thought into the cities the conventions are in until I lived through one and let me tell ya, while it is very exciting and will temporarily help the economy in Charlotte, I want so badly for things to go back to normal!!!

And now on to my favorite things... I have already blogged enough about my recent obsession with KPM Doodles Clip art so I think I will let that one rest. My other obsession is this adorable little boutique near my house that sells fun, funky jewelry. They have a website here that you can look at but some of the ones I am wanting to buy are below.



Ahh, I just love how funky and cute they are. Alright, now it is your turn to link up with Farley and make your Currently September!
