Thanks girls for your well wishes, they are definitely arriving! I feel pretty good, but I do notice that at the end of the day my body is telling me 'stop it, I need a rest you dork'. Plus, I'm putting my sons to work, trying to overlook the fact that the kitchen looks like the last sequence in a horror movie and the dishwasher is, typically, running half empty. It is really true that the male species is unable to fill up a dishwasher economically...
@MinaAnais I'm looking forward to your outfit posts and can't wait to see what you choose for the wedding! The AC addiction is something that totally eludes me. When my husband still lived in the US, I used to get a bladder infection the first week I got there. Every time for two years. He was working for Congress and since most of the offices are empty over the weekend but the AC is cranked up during hot and humid summer in D.C., it was like walking into a freezer Monday morning. Why can't anybody figure out that it's much healthier to set the AC a bit lower and definitely more environmentally friendly? Sorry for the ramble, summer will be over soon anyways...
@eggtartapproved You found the jeans already, that's great! Can't wait to see pictures!
@bakeacookie I strongly recommend Max Mara. It's great quality, beautifully made and special. I used to almost wear it exclusively, but now things don't quite fit as well anymore. Mostly because the recent lines were all too bulky and stiff and the coats too oversized. I do find though, that what's sold in the US is not as pretty and much more expensive.
@girleuro Thanks for the advice, I'll try to be good! Desert here has just been fruit and yoghurt the last few days. They manage fine. Glad to hear you're doing a bit better. When will the heels have their first outing?
I kind of do understand your bag moods. Different times in our lives require different styles. While I always found the Jumbo too big I do need a roomy bag. I love the WOCs, they force me to be disciplined. Which works well when going out. What's wrong about only loving flaps? They're fantastic, pretty and well made! I think they are worth their money more than some other styles. Like the Gabrielle I'm lusting for....
I'll take your advice to save the money for something special/Chanel. So far non of my purged items are even online yet, so it's going to take a while until everything will be sold. (I made another box today and there will be at least two more.)
