The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Early Access is going on now!  In case you missed it, yesterday I published a blog post, Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Early Access Initial Picks, reviewing a few initial picks from the sale.  I absolutely love the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale because all their new season items are on sale!  You read that right…all the new items for the season are discounted at prices you don’t want to miss!  Right now, cardholders get the chance to shop early, before the sale opens to the public on July 20.

Yesterday I ordered several items to try on at home.  Since the nearest Nordstrom to me is over 3 hours away, I have to order items, have them shipped to me, try them on, then send back what doesn’t fit.  While I do have to wait a day or two for the items to arrive at my house, it’s very convenient to shop online, avoid the crowds and try on everything in the comfort of my own home!  My picks are scheduled to arrive Saturday, so look for a try-on session post here on Classy Yet Trendy on Monday!

I have had a few of you asking about my daughter and how she is doing since being diagnosed with a brain tumor back in May.  She has been undergoing radiation treatments and chemotherapy (in pill form).  I’ve been busy taking her to her doctor appointments and daily treatments, so I haven’t been able to be as present here on the blog.  She is doing quite well, but has been really tired due to the radiation.  The chemotherapy has lowered her appetite but she is eating well.  She no longer has headaches since having the surgery for hydrocephalus in May.  She was having trouble writing and her hands would shake.  We are proud to say her handwriting has improved and her hands no longer shake.  Her short-term memory has improved greatly and she is more “aware” of everything going on.  It’s something how a tumor can limit your abilities, coordination and memory.  Her last radiation treatment is Monday.  She will have a 4-week period with no medication, then will start short rounds of chemotherapy and will have an MRI to check the status of the tumor.  We are praying everyday that tumor has decreased.  If you don’t mind, please say a prayer for my daughter that she continues to get well and overcomes this.
