Thanks, K, I am well. We are very fortunate in Australia that most of us are indeed well! Other than that, life goes on. I’m working on a little side hustle keeping me busy. 😀 SWxo
Wow! Talk about a tough life. Have you read any books or articles about her? She had it rough, yet still managed to live a wonderful, adventurous, and memorable life. An example for all of us.
Hi Dave. Yes, I have read books, and articles and seen exhibits of hers and her husband all over the world. In 2018 we traveled to London for Wimbledon and were lucky enough to see the exhibit at the Victoria & Albert Museum titled: Frida Kahlo: Making Her Self Up. That is one exhilarating, exhausting, beautiful and depressing exhibit. She went through so much in her short life, and was so spirited, and talented, self deprecating, and inspirational all at the same time. She was an amazing person. A blogging friend who I have traveled with went to Mexico City by herself to see Frida’s house/museum… seeing her home is definitely on my wish list. One of her exhibits is coming to Portland next year. I can’t wait!
I saw this a few months back and loved it. But I love Frieda. It used to be a standing question, even during the affair, hhhmmm did I feel something before I actually “knew it”??? do you love me? Of course he answered yes.Every.damn.time. he answered yes very convincingly. And then during reconciliation of course then that was the main question. After a while I understood that question was useless. He claimed he “loved” me even during the affair. WTF how do you do that even? Then I grew weary of even trying to sort through that abstract notion OR I just didn’t care any more. I didn’t care if he loved me ESPECIALLY if I had to ask. Supposedly as we get older we get smarter. Well I’m old and I still believe I must be the dumbest of all! Then my friend Frieda educated me.
Indeed, if I have to ask it doesn’t matter any more. Hugs dear girl. I hope you are doing well.
Hey TH, yeah, I had screen shot the photos a few months ago and just re-found them while uploading photos to my new computer. Didn’t have time to say much about it, but I think her words speak for themselves. She was amazing.
I am doing okay, but really wanting to be able to safely travel around again. xo
try not to cry on my rainbow 
That’s beautiful. Thanks for posting, Kat. SWxo
