This bag is gorgeous!

Thank-you! I´m so in love with it and feel no bag need anymore. I actually deleted all other bags from all my watchlists.

That is great. Nothing better then the smell of good leather,

The Dior leather from some of the bags from the Galliano era has a special scent to it. It fills all my senses with joy. I so wished there was a perfume like it!

Nonessential businesses must close. Everyone should stay home.but you can go to grocery stores, banks, gas stations etc..just maintain 6ft distance (even while walking the dog) All this hoarding is ridiculous. Toilet paper, bottled water...and OMG guns. Seriously the last thing we need is more guns bought by freaked out people. Anyway, I suppose we could be stopped and asked why we’re out..but I doubt it since we’re not under martial law. Essential trips only. I can handle that.

Thank you for the explanation. We've just had two confirmed cases of COVID-19 in our county, and our shelter in place order goes into effect at midnight tonight. DH and I are taking it very seriously. DH is picking up a couple of scrips for us at the pharmacy tomorrow, but we have everything we need for the time being from the grocery store, so no need for that. Both cars have gas (not that we're going anywhere!), no other appointments for the foreseeable future. DH had a haircut scheduled for Thursday, but he cancelled… it's not essential, and he definitely can't get his hair cut and stay 6 feet away, LOL!

The weather here is chilly(ish) but sunny for the next while. We plan to walk every day, just so we don't get cabin fever. I'm stress-cleaning. But I figure that's a whole lot better than either stress-eating or stress-shopping… yes???

Definetely and your place will sparkle in no time! Stay safe! Take care! It´s good we have the internet to meet people without taking risks! Good night!

Oh my goodness gracious dear!! I’m so happy you have all of these treasures to both enjoy and also share with us. They sound so lovely and I’m beyond excited to see. I also can’t wait to see your closet!! I don’t think I can be much help with your diamond pendant because I am very simple and prefer simple designs. I know that what you pick will be lovely! My engagement ring is an oval diamond so I am very partial to ovals.
I recently got 2 antique gold pig pendants to wear together on my neck. My daughter was born in the year of the earth pig and so was my Dad. It’s not a diamond necklace but I love it!

Those pigs made me smile! I love that there's a big (Dad-sized) and little (granddaughter-sized) one.

How interesting that they are antiques. Are they from Asia?

Well I’m wondering if there won’t be a grace period for this. People aren’t easily able to go out to H&R Block to complete their taxes, let alone the financial impacts of what is happening and people being able to pay taxes. I know what I owe and am waiting to pay because so much could change in the next month.

Apparently in California, they've instituted a 2-month grace period. But nothing so far for Federal.

I wish I stress cleaned. I usually do the other two - one which is bad for my weight and the other is bad for the bank account.

I heard on the news today there is a federal 90 day penalty free period for paying but I didn't hear anything about filing. If there isn't going to be a penalty, people could file extensions but I imagine many people don't know how to do that.

There is this page at IRS. https://www.irs.gov/coronavirus
It hasn't been updated to show any relief yet but hopefully soon.

I'm the same way!

They are from England! I'm so glad I found them. I've been looking for awhile and just happened upon a vintage jewelry seller. They're only 9 ct gold but perfect for my purposes.

Those are just too cute! I wish I was born in a cute animal year..but alas snake blech

I was born in the year of the rabbit. Could be cute but not really as interesting as a pig!

Two words. Bvlgari Serpenti!!

I like snakes...

Me too! I had them growing up because I had bad fur allergies.

So glad you are back and that surgery went well.

Thank you! Please send good energy that the recovery wraps up well. I’m so tired of hurting.

Wonderful pinks and purples!


I recall you moved recently, I hope all is going well with your move and job change.

Thanks! Have not moved yet this weekend assuming we get out. We are going to have to do quarantine when we arrive, oh the fun.

Thanks! Have not moved yet this weekend assuming we get out. We are going to have to do quarantine when we arrive, oh the fun.

Sending warm wishes for a smooth, uneventful move and quick quarantine. I hope you’ve got contacts on the other side who can help you with groceries, etc. when you arrive.
