I actually need new clothes , and especially a warm winter coat, with the lost weight my coat is huge on me, and its one of those that needs to be close to your body to keep you warm, i was thinking going on poshmark but I am not quite sure what size I am anymore and also I use sweaters and thicker shirts during winter, I took out all my clothes items that are super huge but just put them in the storage, I am afraid of gaining weight (my forever fear) and then having nothing that fits me

Last time I got rid of my coat and got a fitted one so I wouldn't grow out of it. lol! That didn't work. I still get rid of the big clothes every time I shrink out of them. I encourage you to set the big things free. Hopefully you won't ever need them again.

Oh gosh, that’s so kind of you! Isn’t that funny about the mechanical pencils? My kids only use them as well.

Here’s my new planner. It just came today from Indigo/Chapters.

Sorry about the bit of shadow from the window earlier this afternoon. It’s really pretty and came with two sheets of cute stickers and a pocket.

Sometimes I ask myself if I became a teacher because I love school supplies so much!

Your new notebook is pretty! I like their flower patterns. That's funny about becoming a teacher possibly because of your love of school supplies. I was in a store (before I had children) looking at cute supplies, and the cashier must have heard me exclaiming when I saw some cute ones. She asked if they were for me or for children. lol!

 

[tealocean]

Yup, it's me!!!! I guess I haven't updated everyone yet lol. I had a few strangers on here figure out who I am irl and it gave me the creeps so I changed it lol.
@Iamminda your new bag looks so carefree and easy to use. My neonoe can get a bit bulky at times so I was looking around for something easier. I also really like that I could hang charms where the luggage tag is.

That is creepy! I thought that was you when I saw your bag.

Do

Donate them! You won’t need them because you won’t gain the weight back.

Thank you

Thank you I don't know how i cannot

Thanks so much ML. I have been waiting for the right mono/black bag and I think this may be it. I ordered it without ever trying it and am so glad it worked out. I am pleased that I now have a good shoulder bag in each of the 3 canvas print.

I know how much you enjoy the shoulder bag style so that's excellent how you stayed true to yourself! I love all the canvases myself, thus the three Speedies. It's really my favourite bag. I keep looking at them, but I'm reluctant to bring them to work. Maybe my DE Speedy. I think that one would be ok.

Iam, I was thinking about getting the small zippy wallet like yours to go with my Cassie 19. Is yours the zippy coin purse? I am finding my regular long wallets dont' fit easily into the Cassie. Does your small zippy hold many cards? And does it have a zip area for coins? I wonder if my Rosalie is similar.

Love! I have so many paper products, school supply season is my skid row. I never met a planner, journal, notebook, etc. that I didn’t roll with. It’s a deep love.

Me, too, LT. I love planners and notebooks and pens of all kinds. I still enjoy writing notes by hand and using a paper planner. Right now I'm using a Swarovski pen with all those pretty little crystals in rose gold. It's beautiful, a gift from one of my students. I've just discovered Rifle & Co and I love their floral patterns. I have a beautiful Rifle notebook.

I also love stickers. I have a huge collection at school to use for my sweeties.

Indigo chapters!! Another Canadian friend

Hi MT, I'm on the westcoast! How about you?

 

[musiclover]

I'm glad to hear you had fun carrying your pretty new bags to work and enjoying the sparkle of the new rings. All those little things add something nice to your day. I hope you get a break from all that talking or get used to it. Do you ever get used to it? I do a lot of talking too; so I drink all the time. (Lol! lots of bubbly flavored water or water) It seems to help, but sometimes I sound a little hoarse anyway.

Hi TO! Teachers do end up talking a lot, but I try to be careful not to overdo it so the students know that whenever I speak, I've got something important to say. We can use a microphone if we wish but I don't really like to because the mikes we have are like a huge necklace and it's a lot of work every weight my collarbone. I've been teaching for a very long time so I'm quite used to it. Admittedly, I do eat a lot of cough drops, drink lots of tea and anything to keep my voice from getting too hoarse.

So glad to hear that you love your Speedies — you have a wonderful collection, one of each classic . I agree that it is wise not to bring them to work especially with all the sanitizer and cleanser you need to use these days (you have probably seen various threads on how sanitizers can damage coated canvas). I would even be hesitant to use the DE one now.

I love my zippy coin purses — the best compact wallet style for me. I believe it’s around the same size as the Rosalie. The ZCP can hold a fair amount of cash folded into half and cards. There are 7 card slots or areas (3 on each side plus one in the middle) — you can easily put 7 cards (more if you double up in each slot). However, it doesn’t have a zipped area for coins like the Rosalie. I put my coins loose in one of the two main compartments (folded cash in the other main compartment).

OMG, you and I would be trouble together. I plot my books on paper and pen before I type away. I still write a grocery list on stationary.

that's just frightening, you wonder about people sometimes

glad they let you change your name because they use to have rules about that but I don't frequent many places here anymore - just this thread because it's so much fun and keeps me from buying more purses...I still have one wrapped up from 2 years ago, my last purchase that I kept...ok my Longchamp Paris bag doesn't count because I got that on vacation and I might never be able to go back to France again
