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.
It is funny because I get drawn to notebooks/journals in stores, but I don't have a single use for them. lol. I have 2 right now that I bought because I loved them, and they are sitting here waiting on a use sometime.
 
Who robbed a bank? :amazed: Lunch for the rest of the month is on @Iamminda ! :happydance: And everyone put on their good bras. We’re going to the fancy places!

good bra!!

that reminds me of yesterday, I mailed a package to my daughter who is living her brothers apartment because she had a fight with her friend/roommate and had to move out and he was home because their was a break between summer A & B and he told her she could stay at his place...2 months later she is still there but back to package.

It seems UPS can not even with their high tech GPS system can not deliver a package to the right address, I mean its like a scavenger hunt to locate your package because it's in your area but not at your house and you have to go find it.

I send my daughter a text saying hey the package is there...nothing for 3 hours, she gets back to me and says it's not here. I tell her go walk around the very small apartment complex and look for it...she tells me I have to put pants on! Not shoes or a bra but pants...she hasn't changed since she was little, the girl who hates clothes.

She calls me back and tells me it's not anywhere to be found. I call UPS and the contact the driver and hour later they get back to me and tell me where the driver left it...basically they admitted to just dropping off the package at the wrong address and running away. Luckily for my daughter her package was outside the apartment the driver left it at and she talked to the people that are living there and they told her that it happens everyday with UPS.

I would call and complain to UPS but what good would that do? They told me that the package didn't have the apartment number on it, I told them yes it did because I made up the label, and I printed it from my computer.
 
The prime Minister is my neighbor haha ;) I mean not really but hey my husband is working in the construction in parliament Hill so that counts right? Lol
Oh, that is so funny! I've only travelled once to your city when I was in my 20s, and thought what a beautiful place to live and work. The ocean is my neighbour so it's gorgeous here, too.

Yup, that's me as well. I have some lovely agendas that require refills but can't decide if I would rather fill them with notepaper or use them like a calendar/planner. I find the planner easier for work and it's bigger than my agendas.

:lol: Good bras — what are those? These days, I rarely ever wear one unless I am going out (even then, it depends on the material of the top, call it a blessing of being “small” :lol:)
 
So glad to hear that you love your Speedies — you have a wonderful collection, one of each classic :smile:. 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).

Hi Iam, yes, I saw that in the LV thread and on the LV website that sanitizers can hurt the canvas. I think it's probably better then to be cautious and keep my Speedies at home.

Are you using any of your LV slgs right now? I am currently not using mine. I just took a look at them the other day to see how they are doing (crazy, I know).

Thank you for your excellent description of the zippy coin purse. It can definitely hold more cards than the Rosalie. I like the zip compartment for coins, but I can see from your organisation that the two main sections are more than ample to hold the amount of cash I usually carry. I haven't decided yet which canvas to purchase. Which one is your favourite? I would consider the Christmas animation but I haven't been a huge fan of the releases the past couple of years. I loved the "voyage" animation. I have a mini-pochette with the cruise ship. It's very cute.

Hi ML. Yes, I am still using my LV SLGs mostly because I only own a few others (1 Coach key pouch, 1 Fossil key pouch and 1 old full size Buxton (?) wallet). I am not too worried about them since they are inside my bag. When I know I will need to pay, I unzip my key cles and have the credit card sticking out of it before I get out of my car so it’s ready to go at the cash register. I know how fun it is just to look at them (admire them :smile:) if you are not using them currently — not crazy at all :smile:.

I really love my ZCPs (although my vernis ones are a little less carefree, I let go of 2 vernis ones in the last couple of years). My current favorites are my monogram pop one and my new DE w/ RB lining (I parted with my DE with brown lining since I prefer the pink lining). I recommend getting either a mono or DE one to start with — great classic and carefree too. I would like a Christmas one since I love little Vivienne :heart: but I don’t want to worry about the illustration inevitably chipping down the line (since I will be handling my ZCP often/daily). Plus I am trying to be good in limiting my collection. Here is the most recent picture of them (taken in March, I have since let go of one because I don’t like odd number of things :lol: and I rather not add another one now).

I loved the voyage animation too. I've looked at the animation in recent years and haven't liked anything as much as that one. My favorite was this one.

I know not everyone likes Vivienne (there are two camps — those who love her, those who don’t :lol:). The little girl in me finds her so adorable :heart: especially with the Paris/Venice/Shanghai theme last year. I bought a key charm with her on it (that’s all I have so far).

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.

Some people really don't have a life! I'm sorry you had to go through that. Glad you were able to get the named changed and still be here. I knew the avatar looked familiar! Good to have you back!

You're loaded! :lol: JK! I love that size wallet.

Glad to hear I am not the only one who considers the bra depending on where I am going. :lol: I've lost weight too, but not enough to get a new size. Or at least, I don't want to get a new size bra yet. :biggrin:
