poppy metallic signature large wristlet

A couple weeks ago I won a $100 Coach gift card thanks to Simply... Inspired.
The next day I checked out the site and was instantly reminded of my friend,
bowling buddy and lover of all things COACH, Diane M.
She and her daughter Nicky always had a Coach.com purse, wallet or shoes, etc..
I used to tease them all the time when we were bowling.
I would say something like this:
"If your handbag disapears tonight, Diane, I swear I'm not responsible"
Yesterday, I was shocked & saddened to hear that Diane had passed away.
We had been out of touch. I didn't know she had been so sick and
I had not been there for her. I didn't get to pay my respects at her memorial service.
All of this playing over and over in my head as the tears roll down my face.
Then I felt a nudge, a niggle, a thought out of nowhere or maybe SOMEwhere.
When did I win the gift card? When was I on the Coach website? And sure enough there it was. The day I was on the website was the day Diane went to Heaven.
And maybe, just maybe she was sending me a message, I just didn't know it at the time.
For the record there was a cute PINK, wristlet I wanted from Coach. However, I just didn't feel I needed it, so I purchased two nice, little Christmas surprises for people that I care about. Also, I always feel it is better to share the love and wealth whenever possible.
Anyway, I already have two, small, but very nice Coach handbags, given to me by generous peeps that love me and know my fondness of Coach.
I just wish I could have shown Diane my doggone cute handbags. We would have had a Coach loving moment together one last time in person.
However, I am extremely grateful for the moment or shall I say SIGN from the other side.
Thanks for sharing the love Diane. You were always a good friend to me and that will never be forgotten.
I ♥ you , and someday I will see you again.
In fact you better have a ( pink or purple) COACH handbag and bowling gear ready for me when we meet at Heaven's Gate.
In loving memory of
Diane M.
