Please indulge me in a redo. It’s been bothering me that I left out @eleanors36 (a long time ban islander) on my Christmas card (even though I had a disclaimer saying sorry for leaving anyone out). So I made a new card with my Happy New Year wishes. (I may be leaving out someone again but this is the last time I will attempt to do this, lol).

Have a great first week of the year, lovely ban islanders :)

Sooo. I have some big news. Some of you may remember that a couple years ago, I mentioned that DH and I would be moving. Since then, we've looked at more houses than I ever want to see again, but suddenly found one a few days ago. We dashed down to this area (about 30-40 miles south of Atlanta) and made an offer that was accepted today!!! So at long last, we will be moving in the spring. We have some time before then because I really can't do much before May, but we had to grab this house. Really looking forward to getting back to warmer weather, and hey! Some retail! There's a Target about 15 minutes from this house. A Belks and a Dillard's! Good grocery stores! What will I ever do??!!

So excited!

This is awesome, IM! I'm saving these cards as images on my devices. They are so fun and make me smile!

Congratulations, eleanor! Sounds like you've got a great location with all that fun shopping! I love Target! I need to visit a Dillard's because there seems to be some pretty good sales on Coach there! I wanted to ask you are you down sizing homes or is it about the same size?

Hmmm, I haven't picked anyone.... Could it be me??? [emoji848] Or it could also be ML! [emoji28]

I thought about both of you, but I think ML spent a bit lately and will stop. Not sure about you, but to me, you're in the same group as ML.

I thought about nominating myself to be the next one to crack (just in case), but I'm looking at all my gorgeous new stuff and ...I think not! So I vote for @Syren !

Besides, I just paid for housing and tuition for both kids. :wtf: I need some time to re-group. And I'm feeling rather protective of my wallet until next week when I order my LV wallet for my birthday :lol:. (SLGs don't count right? :graucho: )

On another note, I sold a clutch and a small wallet so picked up my consignment money today! :yahoo: I'm throwing that into my new wallet fund.

Edited to add: I dropped off another bag and a cosmetic case at the consignment store as well. Today was a good clear out of Sporting Goods, consignment store, Salvation Army thrift store and the women's shelter.

How did I not see this post?

Congrats e!!!! So glad to hear you found a house you love and will be moving soon! That is exciting! Looks like you will be close to some great stores. If nothing else, Target will get all your money. [emoji28] You'll be near LT as well! Looking forward to hear all about packing, purging, and moving! [emoji256]

Thank you! It's smaller than what we have now although we will still have a lot of space for DH's tools and workshop. Yard is smaller too. We're not completely downsizing, but it's better.

Congrats on your sale ML! Most of my stuffs are still pretty new too! I love looking at my collection though. [emoji7] It's definitely time for me to just focus on giving my bags more love! Oh and more bag charms! Lol!
