Finally able to get to the bank on Monday, January 13, 2025. The snow was enough to keep me grounded for a whole week even though I cleared the driveway.
- Black button tie sweater I considered for my shop, June 2024. Discussed in this post. Had to replace the buttons the reason I am not offering the sweater in the shop. That said, I love it.
- Old black high waisted pleated slacks 2001 or so.
- Mandarin collar wool sweater jacket, TJ Maxx 2003 or so. Discussed in this post and here.
- Black PU leather all-weather riding boots with great rubber soles for traction. Fall 2021.
It has been cold in our area since the beginning of the year. Wish I was in the mood for this weather. Good news, looking into new projects.

Yesterday, I thought I would get up and run several errands. That said, for one reason or another I never made it out of the door. I did however, get dressed. The problem? I did not like anything I tried on so I decided the errands were not that important. Think I should have switched the jeans and not the sweaters. Do you ever have one of those days?
- Ann Taylor Sweater - June 2020 reference post
- Black Stretch Jeans (purchased 2021 wholesale sample for my shop)
- PU Leather All Weather Riding Boots (purchased 2021 wholesale sample for my shop)
- One of the new leather belts I discussed in an earlier post.
- Black Leather Blazer (purchased 2024 wholesale sample for my shop)
One of the errands- deposit cash received as a holiday gift into my personal bank account. I was unsure if the drive thru would be available so I could not just throw on sweats.
The other problem, I purchased a new ring light and started playing around
with video and photo lighting settings. It is amazing to me, how much time I
spend playing around with these settings.
Happy to report my diet is still working. Below, some of the meals I have
consumed since the beginning of the year.
We are expecting snow on Monday and I am hoping it clears by Tuesday.

Had several things to take care of yesterday morning. It was about 40° F when I left the house.
- Brown Suede Jacket - Holiday 1997 gift or so.
- Dark tan suede high waisted, cuffed slacks - Mom gifted 20+ years ago
- Cashmere tan crew neck sweater - June 2024 wholesale sample (research for my shop)
- Saks Fifth Ave Dark Brown Pumps - On sale December 2024
Relatives stopped by later in the afternoon, and when they left I tried on
several New Year's outfits, only to check my diet progress. It was wet and
rainy in the Washington/Baltimore region last night and I did not mind staying
in.
- Black high waisted slacks - June 2024 wholesale sample (new slacks discussion)
- Black velvet tank top - 2002 or so Dress Barn Arundel Mills
- 9West patent dress slings - August 2022 9West online (four pairs of new shoes discussion)
Happy New Year.
