Fig Leaves/ Why we wear clothes.

Ok, so one of my favorite things to stew about is how men can buy guns and trucks and 4 wheelers and motorcycles...but women get so much slack for buying shoes and purses!
Don't get me wrong, a motorcycle will probably get you farther than a pair of stilettos, because if your walkin, your carrying those high heals in your hands!

Remember in the movie, Romancing the Stone, with Kathleen Turner and Micheal Douglas? When they are walking in the jungle and he chops the heels off her shoes with a machete?
Anyway, here is what I am getting at... The Bible says: And the eyes of them both were opened, and they knew that they were naked; and they sewed fig leaves together, and made themselves aprons.- Genesis 3:7.  It is right there, in the bible, for everyone to read. Apron horders of the world unite! It is biblical baby!
Shoes, and aprons, are very much a part of our day to day life. They can be an amazing form of art and expression. They can represent craftmanship and dedication. They can protect us from the elements and be a form of personal style.

Granted, when they cost $1,000.00 a pair, they can be pricey and you can't walk in them. But really, is it not worth it?

Introdution/ Why the hell am I doing this?

Good Morning! Here I am, starting my blog on a Sunday morning. It is a turning point in my life because I have made the commitment to begin writing about all of the art that goes on in my life everyday.
This, I understand, is a huge undertaking. I am one of those HIGH OCTANE women that does not slow down for anything. I get pretty darn excited about everything and can't stand to not live life to the fullest. One of my favorite quotes/mottos is: "I want to be the kind of woman that when my feet hit the floor in the morning the Devil says, "OOOOO crap! CaseyJuly is up!"
I will be expressing my views about life, my understanding of the universe and my opinions about what makes the world go round. I do cuss, and I have some pretty strong convictions. I have realized that I am way too serious, thanks to Sarah Elizabeth, and have been focusing on on the crap that has been going on in my life instead of how strong I am and my amazing resilience (which is a priceless gift)!
I do have some college education and am in the process of getting that piece of paper to validate it, but I have a lot of experience in a lot of things and that makes all the difference most of the time. I face things head on and have learned to let the truth "burn off the fog" as Ernest Hemingway kind of put it.
I am open to comments, and am kind of excited about it! I love to hear what other people have to say and am pretty open to even negative criticism. I mean, we get so much of it these days from everybody...why not just get use to it?
Soooo, why the hell am I doing this? Ask me in a year, and I will answer you then!
