I'm loving my Mindy bag the more I carry it but last night I kept thinking, am I always going to remember the first day I carried this bag I had to put our puggy to sleep? I didn't sleep very well last night. And Pinter woke me up meowing down the hall in the middle of the night for some reason. I called her and of course she wanted to be petted at 3 am. And then Freyja was like, hey your giving out pets, my turn lol. 

Oh and I love my pilates reformer. Although I've been slacking.

@jaxs mom Join the club. I didn't sleep worth a darn last night and have been dragging all day... I just hate that! Especially when it's a nice day but I don't feel like doing anything... As for your bag, I suspect there might be that association, but I also suspect that over time it'll fade and you'll accept that one had nothing to do with the other... I know you know that anyway, but hopefully the association will diminish.

So how's my boy, Thor?

I looked on line and while not for me, I liked the white best as well @handygal2. Interestingly enough, given my track record, the pink would be my second choice. 

---

Hmmm @stevieb ... 

---

HMMMMM is right @EdithEllenLily ... Have you noticed that this is the second PINK bag she has liked..one actually being the dreaded LL!   

---

Actually @Boehm Collector, it's the third, not forgetting the pretty Henri Bendel bag, but again, I'M NOT BUYING ANY OF THEM... and if I owned any of them, they'd almost never, if ever, be used... 

---

Now that you mention it @stevieb .. I do recall the pink Henri Bendel with the flowers.

Well @EdithEllenLily, what can I say, if you're going for whimsy, what's any more whimsical than a spring floral in a pretty spring pink... But note, I said it wasn't for me in any color...

By this point I clearly have earned the reputation, but I don't dislike the color pink, I think it's very pretty. One of my favorite crayons was "carnation pink" (remember that one), another was "salmon"... I simply don't like to wear a lot of it and I don't like it used for accessories...  but I can appreciate it.

---

I remember both of those colors @stevieb 

Looks like there is a little girly-girl in you after all...

---

Yes @EdithEllenLily and @stevieb I also remember those colors.  I wonder if they will be in the 152 box of Crayola Crayons I ordered?  Or have those colors been discontinued by now?

---

And then there was magenta, the first time I'd ever heard that name... and aquamarine... and spring green and on and on and on... But alas @Boehm Collector @EdithEllenLily, I went to Staples yesterday and bought myself the 152 box. It was a real toss up, because they also had the 120 box, which was the one I really wanted, liking the configuration of old, but I opted for the ultimate... Somewhere online I thought I saw a listing of the colors that come in the big boxes, though I could be wrong on that... I haven't opened my box yet, just got it late yesterday and I need some coloring books anyway...

---

Oh @stevieb .. I would have opened it immediately to check out all those pretty colors.  I would not have been able to wait.   Hope mine arrive soon.

---

@Boehm Collector You don't have to open it, the top is see-thru plastic.

---

Oh okay .. so I take that back @stevieb  LOL

@Boehm Collector: Your outfit is beautifully coordinated, with such pretty colors. And the shoes don't need to be burgandy-- matchy-matchy isn't necessary! You will look great on Monday!!

And as for the exercise, kudos to anyone who has the motivation to work out at home. The only way l will is at an exercise class.

---

I always work out at home! I love it! @handygal2

---

Then you're a better woman than l, @skyblue, LOL.

---

Haha! @handygal2 It's always worked for me!

---

Hi @skyblue and @handygal2 and @stevieb ... today my DH and I took a brisk half hour walk by my brother's house.  It was such a nice, warm (in the high 50's) sunny day.  And since the terrain is rather hilly it was a nice work out!  Much more pleasant than using the treadmill.  If I had to choose between going to the gym or working out at home I definitely prefer being home.  

---

@Boehm Collector, @skyblue, @stevieb: Exercise classes, or walking outdoors while listening to my iPod, are the only workouts that work for me. I find that using a treadmill or other machine-- at home or at a gym-- are tedious and boring. I have an old portable treadmill that's collecting dust. I use it as a clothes rack, LOL.

---

@handygal2 ... I have a TV in front of my treadmill.  If I could not watch TV I wouldn't last 5 minutes on it.  LOL

@Boehm Collector@EdithEllenLily@1Professor I'd love to see a photo of your new baby pink Logo Lock in real life if any of you could post a handbag beauty shot.  

---

Oh Geez.. @skyblue .. I would have loved to have taken a photo of the Bby Pink LL.  But after checking it out to make sure it was in mint condition I gave it to DH to put away until my birthday in April.  Once he hides something there is no way I will be able to find it.  We kind of switched.... I was supposed to get the Bordeaux one for my B-Day.  But then I decided that I would get more use out of the Bordeaux now.  Andt he Baby Pink one is more of a spring/summer color.  But the bag looks exactly like it does on-line.

It must have been heartbreaking putting your dear pug to sleep, @jaxs mom.  No wonder you didn't have a good night.

Last night I  had a small glass of the chocolate liquor from my parents home town in Italy. i slept like a baby.  DH and I only drink it on Friday and/or Saturday nights.  If I drank it during the week I would never be able to get up for work.  LOL  Perhaps it affects me this way because I really am not a drinker!!

I carried my new Bordeaux Logo Lock Hobo for the first time today.  I  it!  It does not carry large so it is fine for my petite frame.  It stays comfortably on my shoulder.  It is on the heavy side ... but it is actually much lighter than my Dooney Florentine Bags.  So the weight does not bother me at all.  I never had to clip the logo lock because it is heavy enough to keep the bag closed.  I am so glad I ordered it ...... and am looking forward to carrying the Baby Pink one this Spring and Summer.

Hi ladies ... this is Mr. BC writing.  I would like to know what you have done to my wife?!?!?!   The handbag fetish was bad enough.  But now she is freaking out about a 152 box of Crayola Crayons; coloring books and Fruit Luminaries with Flameless Candle & Timer!!! And unlike Sister @EdithEllenLily .. my wife does not bake ... so I am not even getting any cakes out of this!    

But all kidding aside ... what I do know is that she is happy .... Happy Wife, Happy Life!

---

Hi Mr. BC @Boehm Collector!!! The pear fruit thingy is my fault! Don't worry, you will only have one...and it's a nice one. Mr. Lily has to look at five of them here and there, mostly in the dining room. They have a nice warm glow...you might like it!  Enjoy, EEL 

---

EEL @EdithEllenLily.. this is MR BC again .... Maria is now thinking about buying the apple thingy!!

---

 @Boehm Collector!! I have to say I am most amused with Mr. BC's messages! Oh dear, so sorry. Maybe get the pear home and then decide about the apple...

What are you sorry about @EdithEllenLily?!?!?!  .. I think the Fruit Luminaries are adorable.  And don't let Mr. BC fool you.... he actually thought they were cute.  But we did agree we will wait until the pear arrives before deciding whether or not to order the apple.
