"Buy My Bags" purchase #2...

... Following the first purchase of an all-inclusive 10-day vacation to Mexico with Jeff (happening in 81 days!!!), I have made purchase #2 with the profit I've made selling bags....

.... a new soprano saxophone!!!! YAY!!!! I've only had her for 1 day and I love her already. :oD She was pre-loved, but well taken care of. I got her for $1,500 and she plays like a gem.



So, if you have purchased a bag (or several) from me in the past 11 1/2 months, THANK YOU! This has been the most fun little side project ever. I had no idea it'd go so well, but business is still trucking along and I'm still sewing up a storm. I just bought a bunch of new bright colours and patterns, so if you are a "Buy My Bags" follower, stay tuned for some new ones coming up!

(Side note: I thought it would be funny to name my new saxophone Kendra or something alluding to Kenny G, but in the saxophone world that's pretty much sacrilegious, so I refrained. Still, the thought was there.) :op

Update on my buddies!

Although I start every post with something along the lines of "I have really been slacking on the blog thing," it's true every time. Now that I'm starting to teach my Grade 10 computer class to set up and use blogger, I guess I should get back into the swing of things myself. And with that being said, what better topic to update with than my fabulous nieces? :o) They are 3 1/2 months old now and stinkin' cute. See for yourself!

Miss Emily - so happy!
