BC Hockey won the national championship over the weekend, ironically beating Wisconsin. Yay BC!
S bought tickets last night for us to go see U2 at Soldier Field in July. We had talked about it before, but I guess he still really wanted to go because he asked me when I was at least 70% asleep if I wanted to go. Saw them back in 2000 at the UC, so the outdoor venue should be fun. (Bono's back surgery = cancelled U2 concert :( )
I think I found a pendant light for the dining room, though I haven't done that much shopping around yet. You'll never guess, it's from PB... ;) I really missed out by not signing up for a PB credit card a few years back, I would have made a killing on the rewards program.
I treated myself last fall (after one year of TTGP and our first failed IUI) with a little something from LV. I'm not a handbag snob, but I wanted this, so I bought it for myself.
Sadly, the handle already started to fray, so I took it back to the store to get repaired. Happily, no charge, but it'll be 4-6 weeks, so I'm back to slumming it. I did almost walk out with the spring version, but I did show some restraint, for now.
I was sad to hear late last week that Pamela Fiori has been ousted from the helm of Town & Country after 17 years. She will be succeeded by Stephen Drucker from House Beautiful. I've been an avid reader of T&C since 1996, and she worked so hard to make sure it was focused on quality and substance, rather than just luxury. I am afraid that this will change under new leadership. I wish I was still an ad buyer, so that instead of just writing her a note, I could have "voted" with ad pages (which were down 46% last year). I'm going to give the new guy (who I remember back from his MSL days) a chance before I try to find a new favorite title. (got a lovely e-mail note back from Pam)
Last but certainly not least I had a great get together with some of the Chicago area Bump ladies on Saturday. There were only six of us this time (a much more manageable crowd) and a few that I met in January and some new ones. I had to run off to acu after, and when I ran into my yoga instructor at PDtM she said I looked so happy. I said I just saw my girls, they are the best! :)
