Hi girls! I see I missed ALOT! Shame on all those members for hating on MK. Get a life and let people live theirs 😠😠.
I've been pretty busy at work and don't have much time for anything. I still carry my MK bags daily and get compliments everyday. I now live in my messenger bags.. Crazy because I used to love ginormous bags.
What's everyone planning for Thanksgiving?

Hi Melbo! honestly, your better off you missed it. Just got ugly for no darn reason.

How's your kitchen reno going? Messenger bags are great for carrying just what you need and not a lot of what you don't lol.

Ooh, I agree. Glad I missed that.. It would have made my blood boil for obvious reasons! My reno had been put on hold. I'm almost finished so I don't feel so guilty about the procrastination.. 😳😳😳😶.
I wish I could fit a giant bag in my locker, but I can't without it getting squished. I always pack a second pair of shoes just in case I need to run errands after work.
I'm so glad fall is over. I spent a lot of hours cleaning my yard. 😥😧
I already started Cmas shopping. I'm pretty much done! Got amazing deals the last few weeks.. Which really helps because I'll be visiting my family this year. They live in Canada, so traveling and taking time off from work is gonna cost me.. But I'm okay with that 😄!

Second what Hesitant Shopper said, be glad you missed it, as it saved your blood boiling. It was totally silly and not necessary from people who are supposedly adults! Glad it is done and dusted now and we can carry on loving what we love.

We have missed you, well done on starting Cmas shopping, wow I wish I had started mine! Every year I know I should, every year I never do!

Sounds so fun! I also got a ton of xmas shopping done through Amazon - gotta love shopping from home There are lots of nieces and nephews in our family so I got those out of the way first. Then my parents and step parents, and now just need gifts for my sis and brother...oh and the hubby, haven't figured out what to get him yet.

I'm also traveling tomorrow, going on a 7 hour roadtrip, hoping there won't be too much traffic...Thanksgiving usually makes a 7 hour drive into 11 hours or so. We are going to leave much later and try to take different freeways to get to the bay area.

Glad to see everything is ok with you!!

Melbo!!! You've been missed. You didn't miss much...just the crazy MK haters & their irrational claims. You would think grown azz women would behave better but they never cease to amaze me. I read the thread but decided to ignore it. That choice was better for my blood pressure. LOL

Thanksgiving in Canada! That sounds awesome. I didn't know Canada celebrated Thankgiving. Sounds like you'll be having a grand time! I will be traveling to my Mom's & spending the day with family & the kids. Will have repeat celebration on Sunday once the hubby is home from England. I will be spending some time picking the brains of the ones I don't have Christmas gifts for yet. Some family members are extremely hard to buy for. LOL

It has been a while since I posted as the past few weeks have been crazy. It is almost Thanksgiving for the US but I just thought share my story, as I am thankful for for a miracle this week and I just want to give someone who is ever in my situation a glimmer of hope. Two weeks ago today I was told by my Dad's GP to rush him to A and E. There was an infection in his body and they couldn't find it. He had barely eaten for a few weeks and went from 13stone to 9 stone. He stayed in a local hospital and a week later he was rushed to the Intensive Care Unit as he rapidly deteriorated. I saw him for 2 minutes and he couldn't breathe. Throughout the night he had major surgery as they found a hole in his intestine. The next day we were told very clearly he would not survive the next few hours. He was sedated, on a ventilator with maximum oxygen, his blood pressure was 70/40 and this was with the maximum blood pressure medication, his heart rate was 111 and his kidneys were failing. We stayed by his side and were given all his belongings. Fast forward a week to today and he is now on a ward! He was moved on out on Friday but got a chest infection and almost went back to ICU. He is fighting that and has been talking and eating again. All anyone ever wants is to be able to have that last chance to speak to their loved ones and I have been blessed with that. One nurse said it would take an absolute miracle for him to regain consciousness! Even his kidneys are fine now! I am under no illusions about the future, he will be in hospital for months and his leukaemia has returned but I am soo thankful to have had the opportunity to say my peace to him and he has said all he needs to say to me.

I just felt I should share and give others some hope!

Nice to see you, pinkalicious! Wow, that's a loong drive! I'm assuming you have some good play lists to help you get through it?
Last year, I did most of my shopping on amazon, but this year I've found some amazing deals at target and kohl's. I also got some photo canvases and personalized calendars for awesome prices! I still can't believe how much I saved! This is the year of photo gifting, lol. I'm also missing DH... Not sure what to get him either 😰.
Any new bags or you still on a (voluntary) ban?

I feel you! Last year I missed out on great prices because I wasn't sure what I wanted to gift. This time I'm like, "you get what you get and you don't get upset" and so far it's been working out fine, lol! 😁 😁
I despise going out on black Friday, but their online prices are the best, better than cyber Monday and Cmas. 😊

Aww, thanks! I feel the love! Sorry, I didn't clarify, I'll be going to Canada for Cmas!! Canada celebrates Thanksgiving in October, if I'm correct, but it has nothing to do with the American Thanksgiving.
You'll be having Two feasts! I could get used to that 😆😆.
I know.. Presents are soooo hard. They never get any easier!

I'm so sorry you have been going through this but I'm glad to hear you father is better. That's a gift from God. It's always comforting to have that chance to be with loved ones one more time. I did not have that with my father as we lost him quickly to a heart attack. I have often wished I could have been able to say goodbye but it was not in the cards. Tell your loved one that you love them & make memories while you can because tomorrow is not promised. I will keep you & your family in my prayers.
