How about wearing one non-black neutral per week (whatever is a neutral for you)

I like guessing who it is. I just noticed your real name shows up when I quote you. I like your new avatar!
I finished a report and should have gone to the supermarket but went to the beach with navy Emmy shoulder bag.
April 1st is really making me laugh today with the names and cheering me up!
I’ve just found out that one of our close family friends who I’ve known since I was a child just passed away from a brain tumour(which was also what my late Aunt died from)- my Dad is lying down , so I think he’s taking it very badly.
I hope my day out tomorrow takes my mind off everything although I do feel a bit guilty about going out..although my sister is still attending football matches and went to the theatre for her birthday last month.

Our lavender is a favourite with bees in Summer and is brilliant for laundry. Even after the flowers have gone the fragrance is in the stems and leaves. I know what you mean with towels.
I actually hate fridge cold food anyway. I'll even wait until cold food is room temperature bought from the supermarket. If food that needs to be cold is raw, I just have to decide whether I need to cook it straight away or freeze. I never buy fresh or defrost anything that may need to be kept in a fridge.
Our cat has his own mini fridge because of as well as his dry food he has fresh everyday. I'm careful with his little bits of raw/cooked chicken or fish he doesn't finish in one go. Not that he would touch anything that was not absolutely fresh anyway, he is very fussy, just in case.
Thank You! It is the first painting using my Right hand again.
Take joy where ever you can. Hugs!
Listen to your heart with respect to retirement and bags 
Go slow. You have plenty of time and options Nothing has to be forever, and you can always change course. (DH and I retired early, and he still serves on boards and mentors entrepreneurs in his field)
And. Agree with @dcooney4 . Take Joy
@papertiger, if your gut is telling you that the moment has passed for a yellow bag, then it probably has
The beach is more appealing than the grocery lol

I carried 9 bags in March.
We've been walking every day and I've been doing the exercises the PT recommended three times a week.
I think sales of my items have picked up a bit because a lot of US sellers are dropping out due to tax reporting that goes into effect this year.

Checking in to see who I am. I loooove April Fool’s Day!
Finally wearing my shearling bag before the weather gets warmer and it will look out of place.
In real winter it simply didn't work with my furry coats. I think my fleemarket mens raincoat is just the canvas it needs. ( Just realized it's kind of sick to actually buy a coat to match a handbag... first world bag lovers' problems!)

My new bag arrived today. Ta-da!
She's big! The condition is OK. There are a few little nicks on one side ( disclosed ) that seem to be a cat's work and some more all over they missed to disclose. Nothing some leather glue and paint won't fix, so I'm happy, especially considering the price.
(I was shocked to see the prices in the few Vestiaire Collective listings I found for Leather Plisse bags.)
The leather is extremely soft, even softer than what was used for the Karenina. I think it's comparable to the leather they used for the Serpeant bag.
