So, you remember I spent WAY too much on the amazing Betsey Johnson Dress for the family photo shoot?
And then I went and spent WAY WAY too much for the framed print?
The picture we fell in love with... before.
So, the picture we wanted mounted and framed, we loved with the white background, but I asked them to retouch it in photoshop in the same style as another picture from our group had been retouched. They warned me that it might be “a bit much” and I explained to them that I would be the one to decide that. MY version of “a bit much” and other peoples versions are not exactly the same thing. So, against their better judgement, they Muchified our family pic.
I LOVE IT!!!!!
LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT!!
I cant wait to get it and hang it on the wall!!!
What do you think???? Be honest!!! (But only if you love it. If you think it sucks, go tell someone else. haha!! 🙂 )
I know I committed to taking my Muchness pic daily but I’m not reliable. Oh well. Todays Muchness must have been extra muchy because i got a ton of comments- my boss, my neighbors, strangers on the street talking to each other…
So, here it is! My MUCHNESS PIC OF THE DAY!!!
Today i am not feeling much like working and i got a terrible belly ache from a disgusting tuna sandwich i ate for lunch.
I cheered myself up by walking past a fabric store and this sheer sequin pea coat type thing was in the window.
Hmmmmmm…
Thoughts?
Somedays ya just gotta say “today, for lunch, im gonna get a stiff drink”
Can ya read the placemat? “We are the music makers, we are the dreamers of dreams”
So true.
Open your eyes and make your dreams happen.
The Muchness mobile has really big keys. They dont fit it my really small purse. So i grabbed this sparkly number from the closet. Molly’s closet. Her dress-up closet.
Too bad those molded plastic princess shoes that are covered in glitter dont come in my size.
Handed the hubby some change for the toll. He went to count it.
“whats that? A nickel?” He Joked
“no. It’s some spare Muchness”
Har har.
As you may recall, I determined that the carved wooden sole on these shoes were neither Much, nor, really, Too Much. They just seemed to be trying too hard. And to me, the efforts fell somewhere in the middle. I determined I’d return them because I didn’t feel that I would feel confident in their Muchness as I navigated through the Concrete Jungle.
But then, I realized the problem. They were not MUCH. And, they were not TOO MUCH. They were, in fact, NOT MUCHY ENOUGH.
Now, there is no longer a question. Behold:
Undeniable MUCHNESS!!

My old car was so blahhhhh. And LOUD. Truly, i was embarrased to drive around town with it. My brother in law is a car dealer and he was on the lookout for a new used car for me. My requirements? Not black, not beige, not white, not gray, big trunk.
This is what i got! Its my new MUCHNESS Mobile!!!
I left my office to get some air. In the elevator some dude complimented my shoes. Said they were “very bright.”
“keeps me cheerful” I replied.
he chuckled. “Is that all It takes?”
I looked him square in the eye and said “that, and sparkles”
…he thought I was being cute. If only he knew!!!!
