Well, next week I'll start my planned Thursday OOTD week wrap up! I have been overwhelmed with work and such to even remember to take photos this week. Sad to say, I haven't had the time to do any internet browsing either!

So, for today...I'm going to do a mini about me. 10 random things about me!

1. I love God. He has been my rock my entire life.
2. Lila is and always will be my baby...even if she is furry. I love her more than life.
3. I say a thank you prayer every single day for God bringing Andy and I together. Even on the days he's on my nerves! :)

4. My family is crazy but I love them. Always something going on!!

5. Most of my friends I've known for 10 or more years.

6. I love SPRING, SUMMER, FALL and WINTER. I love living in NC!!

7. I want to be a better/faster/smarter runner.

8. I am very insecure.

9. My dream job would include a baby swing in my six:one design office!

10. I cry a lot more than people know...mostly about other people's lives or something on TV.

cheers! xoxo.

I was going to title this post...always a bridesmaid...but this weekend was much more than just being a bridesmaid. This weekend was a new beginning for one of my best friends!

She and I have been friends for a long time and we've been through many relationships and heart breaks. Funny, we were talking this weekend and saying how thankful we are for unanswered prayers.

I never imagined myself to be single in my mid to late 30s. I had a great plan to find my husband by 25 and start on the broad of kids. Little did I know, God had a different plan. Through all the tears, begging, bargaining and pleading over the years, I had almost given up hope!

How thankful and blessed I am for God's plan. How fortunate I am to not have the answer I wanted all those years ago. It's amazing how life works out. I say it very often and it is true, but we really never know what tomorrow may bring. And for that..........I am very thankful.

What unanswered prayers are you thankful for...

xoxo.
cheers.

So, even though my blog is the same as my bag business, I think I want to make my blog about something more than just my bags. I would like it to be a little about me, my thoughts, my design ideas, things I love AND my bags!
So, I think it's going to go something like this...

• Monday - maniac Monday...random thoughts or ideas
• Tuesday - trending Tuesday...what I'm loving in the fashion world. or home interior design.
• Wednesday - wish list...what I'm lusting after these days.
• Thursday - wrap up of outfit of the day for the week.
• Friday - favorite bag(s) I've made for the week.
• Saturday/Sunday - favorites...what I'm loving!!

Hope this inspires me or others that may {eventually} read my blog. My random thoughts.

cheers!

xoxo. melissa
