What have I said 'Yes' to today? Well, today was town day. For some reason, I dressed a little more snazzily saying YES to heeled boots and a necklace.

Today's prompt for Sunday's blog challenge is to write about a particularly good or controversial comment someone left me. Well, this is actually a hard one to answer as I have so many lovely comments on my blog and on other social media outlets.
