Happy President's Day - This Means No Bills in the Mail !!!!

Well, first let's get the pedometer tallies out of the way.

So far, so good !!! On Saturday, we went down to see my mom before I met my friends at Odysseo by Cavalia. We ate at Pinoy once again.

Of course, delicious ribs adobo.

Then, the chopped pork that Doc loves.

And here's the rest - salt shrimp, pancit and corned beef. Yummy.

Then we went up to Irvine, where Doc dropped me off for the show. Here's what I wore:

A long burgundy lace skirt by Antthony Designs, a velour tank with ivory lace trim, and a red velvet Victorian style jacket by SO.

This ring is new - it's a birthday gift . I will show you a better picture the next time I wear it. The garnet/opal bracelet is also a birthday gift, my 40th from my mom.

I wore a buffalo turquoise and smoky topaz statement necklace from Ebay.

I finished it off with boots by Chinese Laundry. I had originally chosen another pair, but since the show was held in a field, I figured that wedges were better than heels.

Here is the big white tent and the big mural leading into the venue.

The show was absolutely wonderful!!! We all loved it. I highly recommend. No pictures, because you aren't allowed to snap pix inside.

Sunday was Valentine's Day, of course. We are always low key, but I did get this for Doc.

The volunteers at our hospital were selling cookies for $2. They personalized them.

Here's Doc holding his cookie. He said it was good.

Of course, he got me a monkey themed card. When the shoe fits.....

He did, however, make me 4 years younger, but that's okay by me. It was one of those giant cards.

So I didn't get a chance to make any wishes for birthday gifts, because I have been helping my mom a lot. So everyone got me gift cards. I used my Neiman Marcus card right away. Duh.

I got a Greenbeads by Elizabeth and Ashley long goldtone lariat necklace. I love it - very heavy weight.

So that's about it, except for today's outfit. And away we go !!!

I am wearing a silk dress by BCBG Max Azria. I topped it with a lurex black/navy tweed jacket.

On my left arm, two Austrian crystal bracelets, a diamond/sapphire ring, and a pear solitaire.

On my right arm, two more Austrian crystal bracelets, and a sapphire ring.

Since today's magical color is gray, my gray Tahari maryjanes, and gray tights.
