RIse and SHINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WOW I'm the first one up and I actually beat Lee Ann!!!

Goooooooooodmorning everyone!!!! Today is kinda gloomy but let's make it a GREAT day!!!
I'm going to go and get the kids ready we are getting pictures taken today for Christmas!!
I hope everyone has a Fabulous day!

Thanks Sandi for the reminder on the pics.  If I want to get Christmas Cards made up I need to get a move on it, eh??

I guess I'll be calling Sears or JCP for an appointment since they are speedier than my regular place.  I never did get Gracie's 6 year pics yet either.  It was only about three weeks ago so no harm no foul there but I need to get it DONE!

My weekend is already spoken for.  Richard is over at our rental house ripping out the kitchen floor and putting down new.  Gracie and I have to go to Kohl's to return a pair of shoes and then to Sam's Club.  We have church tonight at 5pm then we are dropping Gracie Goose off at her friend's for a sleepover and going to the comedy club and for a midnight meal with friends afterwards.  Tomorrow we need to move furniture.  Hubby HAD to have a new HDTV so the deal was that I got a new entertainment center for it.  Anyway, the old stuff needs to go to the den in the basement, yadda, yadda, yadda....

I hope everyone stays dry and warm this weekend.  I'm kinda in lurk mode lately but I AM here so if anyone wants or needs me ya just gotta yank my chain and I'll be there!!

  Greetings, Sandi and everyone!  It's getting pretty late in this gloomy day, but hope it's been a good one for y'all.  I got to gym early this morning.  Did a little shopping & now getting ready to go help judge a talent show for High School choral director friend of mine.  Happy rest of the week-end KYANA wls friends!!!

Well...we have been to Clarksville to Home Depot and back by 11:00. Dale found someone's cell phone yesterday and after making numerous calls we tracked down the owner's son and so we arranged to meet the guy there this am at 9:00. Apparently he forgot to zip the pocket of his jacket it was in and when he went around the square...it fell out. (He was on a Harley) Anyway...its back with him and we have more 2x4 for the attic so Mr Sunshine can work on it this week on the days he is not babysitting! I stopped at Walmart and picked up Braedyn's pics! Too cute! i will bring them with me Thursday! i am cooking dinner now....Aubrey is going hunting tonight and Sarah volunteered to babysit so she could go. His dad did not show up...was not surprised. Dale is going to help me rearrange my workshop...I need a bigger space with a million shelves and alot more organization! I am hoping to get some cakes done this weekend. I got everything for my gift bag order so I am 1/2 way through getting those together!  Oh yeah.....I just discovered a new consignment store here in town! They have the cutest shoes and purses! Coash, D&G, Prada, etc....I found a cute Coash for $50...Becka...what do I need to look for to see if it is the real deal???? Mr Sunshine wants to get it for me for Christmas.....yes...I hit the floor! Anyway...let me know! Off to accomplish something...

Coach purse has serial numbers in them.   Just be careful cause there are a lot of knockoffs running rapid in the consignments shops along with others.  

I've always been told to look for the serial number as well.  I saw a show on TV once that said to look closely at the stitching and make sure they were nice and tight and EVENLY seperated.

Maybe go back and write down the serial number and then google it and/or check ebay to see if the numbers match the style?

I believe that the one I have is authentic BUT Richard got it for me off ebay so ya never know.  It came with the dust bag cover and actually had the hang tang (that little plastic thing) still attached.  I saw another one that I like when a was window shopping at Macy's the other day.  It was a VERY SMALL across the chest style bag and they STILL wanted 165 bucks for it!!   

I'll be looking on ebay for it or a good replica soon.  I don't mind a fake as long as it's not obvious and I don't pay for it like it was the real deal.

I watched a tyra banks show once, and they said to look and see if it is made in China, if so with the serial numbers it is probably real, my soon to be daughter-in-law, has one from the coach store, and my sister-in- law bought one at a coach outlet, and they both have serial numbers and made in China. hope this helps
