Quite the reverse: beginning the process of storing away my Halzan, still dressed with the soon to be removed JL Twilly. My Halzan has been the most useful and practical bag in the last two weeks as I alternated between it and my very washable Longchamp backpack while toting my work laptop. Now that NY is about to head to a 100% non-essential workforce reduction, my bag is going into gentle hibernation for a bit. My cat, of course, insisted on marking/testing the dust bag first. And I wanted to add my greatest appreciation to all the critical workforce out there who risk so much to keep everything running. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

"Dear Miss B,
I am afraid your maiden voyage overseas end of the year is postponed indefinitely. Let's be contented that at least we can still reminisce...
Remember La Petite France at Strasbourg? That's the trip we brought you back from Paris. We also picked up your baby roommate, Kelly, from Paris in our recent trip to Mont Saint-Michel. Look at the acrylic painting of Park Guell. That's when we brought your other baby roommate, Constance, home after a walk in the park.
Let's pray that the world can fight this insidious virus soon and healthy cities be restored on earth again."

We all appreciate your thoughts- I have resisted putting away my bags and scarves because I wanted to wear at least SOMETHING every day to arm myself with. But today I have the day off and I ( reluctantly) will do that. But not to be deprived of my Hermes armor, I bought at the last second on line the lip balm, poppy shine and beige natural. I tried them out yesterday and was thrilled- they hold up well at work under the mask. The perfect (mental) defense.
My cats will of course help as well- I can't wait to see all the cat hair when I un-bag them!
PS- I love that twilly on your Halzan. What color is the bag? Plus they both ( of course) compliment the cat perfectly. Everything must always match the cats!!

Of course, matchy-matchy and cat’s hair galore! And I always fight to remain the hopeful optimistic gal -so when we come through this and get to other side with all essential aspects intact, I’m going to get that poppy shine lipstick, too. And perhaps a gold Halzan with BDG nano in white/fuchsia for adornment. My Halzan is noir. Here it is last summer in my sister’s garden. These images bring a smile to my face since I recall clearly the warmth, sunshine, family and love associated with that time. They’re all still there (sunshine, love, etc.), just a little harder to see. :flowers:

Yes, my thanks too! Your cat is a crack-up - seems to feel a need to be :supervising: (that’s a-what we call our dog’s ‘right in the middle of everything activities’ :P). One of my friends has a gorgeous blue halzan and she loves it and carries it lots, especially when she want to be under the radar. Thanks for sharing cat and bag!
