I Gave In!!

Like there was any doubt.... the off white hand bag somehow managed to make its way into my shopping cart...while I  loved it in black as well ...this will be my go to bag this summer...



 This pretty cardigan caught my eye.... cannot wait for summer to enjoy visits to our favourite dairy bar...


We were feeling a bit on the lazy side..... decided to order a pizza & picked up on the way home from an afternoon of "browsing" in the stores....



I came across an awesome website that carries the most adorable tote bags....and while there is one with dachshunds ....... I couldn't resist ordering this one, which is available in two sizes (I ordered the largest size).  Mr. Seventies did inquire if I was going somewhere...lol.   Silly man....


There is also a variety of quilt sets.....in a variety of sizes & patterns.....I chose this one in a twin size....to lay across the bottom of the bed this spring and summer....it also will fit the bed in the smallest spare bedroom (twin size has one sham included).  I'll share pics when they arrive....


I don't often shop at Old Navy....but when browsing their website I came across this two piece set....(sold separately),  they weren't available in store here so I ordered both pieces.  While I love the green....I'll have to determine when they arrive if I truly love the colour....


I've been searching for a pair of pull on,  wide leg capris for early summer & I'm hoping these will be what I've been looking for....


Maurices (clothing store) is having a "Galentines Day Party" tomorrow evening with in store specials from 4-7 p.m.   I hope to visit.... although I don't need much in the way of summer wear.  Fall is my favourite time to pick up a few things there....but I hate to pass up on a sale!!


*Update on the seizure of 43 dogs* - firstly the dogs were from a CKC registered breeder! (who has since been removed from their list) ..... most dogs are small breed..... including dachshunds.  My heart is crushed.... so thankful this a**hole was reported to animal protection & the dogs were removed!  They are currently in foster care....having their every need met.  We donated to their fund for vet care....the community here has rallied with people & businesses donating much needed food, beds, harnesses, leashes....everything these dogs will need when they start their new life.   

The only way situations such as this come to life is when a caring person reports it to the animal shelter....otherwise they would never have known.....that is exactly what happened in this case....

Today the forecast is calling for snow flurries....no major weather events on the horizon.  

*UPDATE* - We are now forecast to get 15-20 cm of snow within the next 24 hours!!  Where did this mess come from?   Ugh.

We hope to visit the mainland for a day next week..... weather permitting..  Monday is a provincial holiday .... "Islander Day, we will be caring for grand daughter for an evening this week while her parents attend a family wake.... (son-in-law's aunt passed away).....

Have an awesome day.... and thanks for stopping by!

Til next time....

    1. Thank you!! Oh, my heart breaks for these poor dogs, as well! So glad someone reported the "registered" breeder....the dogs will now get the much needed veterinary care, proper nutrition...and hopefully can be placed in loving homes.

  2. Cute bag, Charlotte. I’m glad those pups are getting the care they need and deserve. Someone had the courage to speak up. Hope you don’t get too much new snow. I’m ready for Spring. Hugs, Elaine

    1. FYI - items are located in China - it's Chinese New Year - so businesses have slowed down there. Arrival may be late February into March. https://www.comfotlife.com
