You'd think that after all these years, I'd be over my country kitsch schtick.  That I'd get real with myself and say, face it, Tracy, you're a Jersey girl.  But aside from the occasional impulse to set up my tripod at a nearby abandoned gas station, I'm uninspired by my suburban surroundings.  So instead, I put on one of my many pairs of cowboy boots and imagine that my yard is a speck in a stretch of wide, open spaces.  Delusional?  Sure.  But it's probably wise.

Intriguing or not, that gas station seems suspect.

Red may have been all the rage yesterday when Kansas City took on San Francisco, but here at the Trove, I'm thinking pink.  Also, maroon.  Or, to be more accurate, rust.  But maroon sounds more refined than a color usually used to describe a decaying Chrysler.

For the office, the family Valentine's bash, and the ever-popular I-put-this-on-just-to-take-a-pic op, I donned the colors of Cupid.  Each outfit includes maternity leggings, which are now a staple, and whatever regular clothes I can still squeeze into.  The polka dot dress is a swing style with no waist -- so, ideal for an ever-expanding midsection.  The surplice top is roomy, and the black skirt has a big, stretchy waistband that I positioned below my bump.  Finally, the pink sheath was always big.  No need to belt that baby now -- or for the foreseeable future!

And so that's my kind of Hail Mary, something else football, two-point-conversion, something else football, field goal, never mind, let's just go with the generic, gets-the-job-done wardrobe win.

As if you didn't know sports aren't my strong suit. 😏🚫🏈
