30DPC: Day 7

Day 7: A picture of your most treasured item.

My adorable little yellow lab puppy, Sheely! I don't know if you can really call her an "item;" she's definitely part of the family and thinks she's a human. This was her at 4 months...now she is 2 years old and growing up too fast! Our favorite things to do together: snuggle up on the couch and watch chick flicks, cook (she helps by standing right under my feet every second I'm in the kitchen and cleaning the floor), go swimming, and driving with the windows down!

On a more superficial note...these are items that I also treasure:

My Ann Taylor patent leather stilettos. Ann Taylor Loft supplies half of my work wardrobe because they have great clothes in petites. These shoes and I have a love-hate relationship, depending on how much walking I have to do in them. Also, I wore them to the symphony the other night where I was sitting next to two ladies, who were at least 70 years old. One looked at my shoes, looked at me with a judgmental "ugh, kids these days" expression, and then leaned over and whispered something to her friend. The friend looked at my shoes, looked at me, and then said back to her friend "Well you used to wear platforms when you were that age!"

And finally, my Keurig coffee maker. You make my mornings possible. Thank you.
