This past weekend was filled with a lot of errand running however I was able to squeeze some time with my local gal pals 


And here I am on the right


Sometime last week the lovely Lara form My Milk Glass Heart made a comment like:
"Holidays will be upon us before we know it" 
You know what I thought of?  This also means we have four full months away from a brand new year.   I tend to be a little goal driven here's a short list of a few things I want to accomplish by years end.
            • Finish entire jewelry line for a photo shoot 
            • Reorder Business Cards (goof on the last order) 
            • Complete the website
            • Use Facebook for Jewelry Designs by MiSA (I have a love/hate thing with Facebook)
            • Organize paperwork in my office
            • Tidy-up my Studio 
            • Replenish my Sanity on a regular basis by doing more for me.
            • Finish reading the book in my husband gave me this past Holiday season
            • Buy and read “The Help” before it's available on On- Demand
            • Remember to take more pictures to share with you on this BLOG
            • I have a project I'm working on to print more photos to hang in our hallway at home.

With the hot August temps I haven't been able to imagine wearing Boots but I have now found the exception.  I want these boots really, really bad.

Regardless of weather you have weak ankles like I do or not I think this is very simple and beneficial for anyone who wears high heels even if only once in a while.

Thanks for visiting

 A shorter post this week than the norm however this week has been extra hectic trying to squeeze in physical therapy for the shoulder, luckily it's worked and on my way to getting all that pain and tension out of the way and feeling better.

Okay this isn't a purse/handbag but I couldn't help falling for it.
 It's an all purpose bag for the gym by Luglife
There's a couple of women at the gym that have one and they absolutely love it.  It's light weight yet sturdy and there's zipper pockets everywhere.
It comes in several colors, and of course I'm all over the purple and the fuchsia. 
 Shuttle Bus Weekender Bag


It's August and the birthstone for this month is Peridot.
