Phrase (and item) of the day

Dedicated to all of those who don't see their true worth and beauty, as seen in the eyes of others - today's blog is simple, short and sweet. It is a quote that sums up everything I'm feeling today...

 

“To the world you might be one person, but to one person you might be the world.”

 

Nothing more to say.... and the item of the day is...............

 

MY DREAM BOOT! I am a patent leather fanatic - and I'm so glad its back this season!!! This Gucci Veruska patent leather knee boot with a 4.25" heel is at the VERY TOP of my wish list for the fall - my "dream" wish list, of course - this is a full month's worth of bills at $1350.... www.saksfifthavenue.com if you can afford them. Dream on girls!!!

Before I Die...

I am sitting here looking at the screensaver on my cell phone (that is often referred to as a laptop). It is a picture of a few buildings and a canal in Venice, Italy.

 

What is so special about Venice? I really can't tell you what it is, but Venice has always been this magical place in my mind. A place that would be wonderful to walk around. A place that is full of romance, mystery, history and ancient beauty. I have always said that before I die the one thing I MUST accomplish, is a trip to Venice. And I still dream of that day.

 

That made me think - other than my unplanned trip to Venice - are there any other things I must do before I die? I've never thought about it... so I guess i will brainstorm now...

 

- Learn to swim GOOD, simply hanging around the surface and making it half-way across the pool doesn't really count.

 

- Work out for 4 days out of one week. And actually stick with a yoga class for longer than 3 weeks straight...

 

- Hit up at least one city in every state that I haven't been to yet

 

- Take a long road strip with Sharon (watch out Oprah and Gail!!!!)

 

- Walk down the aisle towards a man who has nothing but love in his eyes for me

 

- Find a job that I LOVE to wake up and do every day

 

- Stop talking about how much I could save and DO IT

 

- Spend a few days on a secluded island where there is no TV, no night-club, no cell phone, no computer... just peace and trainquility... and a good man!! :)

 

- And last but not least - break down and buy one of the things I post on here as an item of the day!!!

 

Todays item is a ring that I abslutely LOVE! Its the Cartier LOVE Ring (how appropriate) in White Gold with diamonds.
