I'm doing well now. I've been volunteering for our local animal shelter. Mostly doing trap/neuter/release for ferals, socializing potential adoptees, and fostering sick/injured kitties. I fell through part of a barn with a fireman and tore my leg up. Maybe @LauraTracy can incorporate firemen in her next dirty book?! I have to say, there are quite a few gorgeous firemen here.
Here is the poor stuck horse from this week, I should have got some pics of the hot firemen that helped, what was I thinking?! :lol:

Omg that poor horse and poor you! Glad you are doing better. At least you had some eye candy with the firemen [emoji91] [emoji23]
 
wow, what fulfilling work! That poor animal!
Did I ever tell you guys about the car accident I was in when I was in high school? I was trapped under the car and a young man pulled me out. He and I started dating. He was my first boyfriend. He was a carpenter but I inspired him to become a fireman.

Sounds like the beginnings of one of LTs books lol Sounds like a bad situation but something good came out of it!
 
You have remarkable fortitude. That is so good to know in your mind what you want, and need. :yes:

Thank you! I'm still enjoying carrying it very much. I love the size of the regular Rogue.

Oh I still want the black rogue [emoji23] If it goes lower in price I don’t know if I’ll be able to resist! Someone posted the navy with rivets 25 they received from the sale and it had the clochette!
 
As Ban Islanders, we buy too many bags for me to keep track of who’s got what! :happydance:

So on that note, who has a Parker? Likes and dislikes? The one I like is finally on sale for the Victoria Day weekend we’re having here at home. I might wait for a better price as the SAS is coming up but $255 CAN is pretty good.

I was going to ask on the Parker thread but our discussion here is always so much more fun. The jury is out on the signature but I could be swayed.

This one is on my list! I’ve wanted something in the blue canvas with brass [emoji7] I don’t know if you saw my post a while back but I purchased the chalk quilted Parker and had it for all of 5 mins before returning it, I LOVED it but it came in awful shape. This signature Parker is supposed to go to SAS according to my SA.

I like the size and structure and it will work well as an evening dinner bag or for a lunch event. It fit a double zip wristlet, card case, small keys (bulky keys would probably be awkward), lipstick, and small sunglasses case. My iPhone 7 fits inside as well but I have a silicone slip case and when taken off it fits in the outside slip pocket. The phone case comes off so easily and I don’t mind going sans case when going to dinner because odds are I won’t even bring my phone out to risk dropping it.

For my smaller bags I keep my SLGs slim and compact. The Parkers probably won’t work well with bulky items but for what I’d use it for it will work great!

I got this exact Parker at Dillards for $122. I was never into Parker, but for the price I figured I'd chance it. My large phone fits easily in the back pocket (in its' slim case) and inside I can fit a soft wallet, sunglass case, key fob, gum and chap stick. I don't carry much else, but could easily slip a card case or 2 in there as well. I agree with @Syren that it works great if you carry slim vs. bulky items. I also like the 3 strap options that you can change in seconds vs. unhooking and doubling a strap on other bags.

Oh man what a sale! Was this online or in store? I wish I had a Dillard’s [emoji24]

Hi ML. I just want to say I really like the look of this bag (I don’t usually like Coach signature items but really like it done in navy blue like that, plus the pretty flower clasp/lock). I agree with others that this might be good for a small occasion or weekend bag. Perhaps wait for a better sale? Good luck deciding and let us know :).
 
My 20-year old self would have been drooling over @BeachBagGal ‘s crush. Happy Weekend ladies :smile:.

Okay don't mess with me. I was just getting ready to start the Minda does Timothy O as the firefighter story. I'd switch to JM but we don't need blood on the sand. Although a lifeguard could also be deemed a first responder...:nuts:

Tim is still the one, swoon. My obsession with him is epic (I hope his wife is not a TPFer, lol). For him to become my co-avatar (with Ryan) within a month of my discovering him — that is true celebrity love!! BTW, just noticed today is my 5 year TPF anniversary — halfway to becoming an OG, woohoo.

I don’t own one. I think they look super cute though. I’m no help. [emoji14]
