Man crickets chirping around here! How's everyone spending the weekend?
We cleaned our terrace and did yard work and planted new flowers and worked on landscaping and I'm very pleased with how the property looks all the way around the house. I even made sure there was a colorful welcome in the driveway and hanging from pots going down outdoor stairs on one side of the house between house and garage, to the backyard, basically a happy colorful scene outdoors combined with perfect weather! Yay!
Hosting a ladies sauna and swimming (there's a lake and public swimming pier 80 M/yards from our back yard) evening on my backyard terrace in a couple of weeks and another few parties when we get back from visiting my mom so I'm glad I'm getting it into attractive and festive shape. I had neglected it so bad with grad school and kid duties but with the semester over I'm able to do other things!!

Yesterday went to a bbq and today it’s raining so just going to brunch.
been sorting out kids clothes, they grow out of 'em so quickly!
feel more tired than before the weekend, i want to go back to the office
Thanks for the compliments on my things. I love them.
I really need cute flats. But they hurt when I wear them because most rub the back of my ankle. Anyone have suggestions on cute flats that don’t have that problem?
Haven’t been able to get any shopping in.
Family time has expanded. Don’t they know I have shoe shopping to do??? LOL! Have fun in Aruba. I haven’t been there but, DD & I planned a girls trip to Aruba in Nov. Please share your tips when you get back.
Thank you!
Thanks!!
I love rainbow / iridescent hardware. I’d love to add one to my collection at some point.
Sounds fun and busy!
LOL! Yep. When my kids were little, it seemed work was often easier than managing the household.been sorting out kids clothes, they grow out of 'em so quickly!

My new bag for the new week! Notice how I’m always either in (shades of) blue or white? LOL!

This month I have not been to good and am still waiting for the Mz Wallace Sale. I have been working hard to get rid of the ones that don’t work great and replacing them with ones that do. We have had so much crazy weather this year and even though I am not crazy about saffaino type leathers I bought a second blue Furla bag in this kind of leather. The darker blue tote I bought from them worked so well in winter, that I bought a satchel in a lighter blue for spring/summer. We have had so much rain lately my white bag does not get to come out to play. What have you been carrying lately? I carried my Furla tote yesterday to make sure the color I was buying was truly lighter and it was raining. Lol

Here’s Saturday’s bag!
Speedy 20
Sunday’s bag was a Disney backpack from DBF, since I took Bella to Santa Monica for a super long walk.
Today is possibly my Chanel bag as I planned earlier this weekend, but maybe I’ll change my mind to something else.
We’ve had such perfect weather this weekend, I hope everyone is also enjoying the long weekend! [emoji177]
I also sold my Bally bag! Yay! I got a great amount back for it since I got it during a sale. [emoji4] hoping to sell two more bags this year.
The Bally isn’t really an out since I considered it luggage. There’s one more luggage bag and one handbag left to sell.

Better to get your collection to a point where it really works for you than to be “good”, IMHO.
Every collection needs some bad weather bags and saffiano is a great choice.I’ve been traveling this weekend and only took two bags with me. LV LockMe II BB
and Dior Diorama
I just got home and the bag I bought arrived while I was gone. I’m torn. I love it. It’s very different for me but, I know I’d wear it.
I’m not sure I need it, though. In fact I know I don’t. LOL!
Want...need...like...
More after I decide.
