Because you can’t make this stuff up and it feels like someone up there wants only bittersweet for me…

Last night I found out my grandpa was admitted into the hospital and immediately put on a morphine drip because his lung cancer has metastasized to his brain and he is not expected to make it to the weekend, could go at any time. I called him today to say goodbye (and bawled my eyes out)…he is basically being kept unconscious until he passes because of the pain so I spoke to the sound of him breathing. It is a 14 hour drive to get to him and there is no guarantee I would make it in time. I had thought of postponing Italy yet again but was told by my entire family to go. So I am but instead of being happy and excited, I am sad, cried today and know that I will be told during my trip that he has passed. I hope I can just enjoy Italy once I get there…but not the best of starts.
I’m so sorry to hear this! :hugs:

Hello everyone! I believe I missed backpack and clutch week? Anyway, the only backpack I own is a no-name utilitarian one that I rarely use. As for clutches, my BV knots don't get used a whole lot, but I am glad I have them if the occasion arises for more dressy or formal events. I also have the Dior promenade bag that can be used as a clutch, and I will post a pic if I can find one.
I've had a lot on my plate recently, and it looks like it will continue that way. So I will pop in and post as and when I can. Hopefully it will be less busy closer to the holidays.

Looks like a darling and useful little bag
Thank you! :smile: It's particularly good for travel as it's quite under the radar, with minimal branding.

Looks like next week's topic is bags that don't count. I assume this includes bags that are earmarked for departure from our collections? Interested to see what others include in this category.
