My rose petal breakfast tea. We are here in La La Land and Blue Eyes has back to back meetings... conference calls, in-person meetings, etc... He broke away for 20 minutes to have room service breakfast with me. Honestly I don't know where this conversation came from, I can't remember, but as I sat there … Continue reading Breakfast conversation

Okay, me too!
I am joining in on Totally Caroline's 100 Things I Love. After reading Owlie's List, I realized I need to do one before I can no longer distinguish my list from everyone else's. I was thinking I could very easily do a list of 100 Places I Love and 100 Things I Love to Eat. So, you … Continue reading Okay, me too!
Travelogue: It’s all about the food, and the company, NOLA
In keeping with yesterday's theme about being grateful for the friends I have made through my blog... I have a story to tell you about a girl named Totally Caroline and a town called New Orleans. In comments back and forth on both our blogs for what might have been months, TC talked about how much she wanted … Continue reading Travelogue: It’s all about the food, and the company, NOLA
How do I love thee?
Oh London, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways. I love thee to the depth and breadth and height my soul can reach... I think Disney is responsible for my original infatuation with England. Mary Poppins is magical, she just is, and then of course Bedknobs and Broomsticks. Angela Lansbury learning witch craft … Continue reading How do I love thee?

A forever reminder
In a hotel room in Paris, I sat bolt upright in bed and gripped my left forearm with my right hand. There was a searing pain there on my arm. Whoa, I thought what the heck is going on. I know I had been having a nightmare, I was sweaty and disoriented, but I couldn't … Continue reading A forever reminder
Our time apart
I am way behind on my posts, but for very good reason. We have been traveling most of the past month. So, even though my last couple posts were a bit melancholy, they were not really about Blue Eyes or our relationship, such as it is. At this point, our progress, for both me and Blue Eyes, … Continue reading Our time apart
Homage to Georgia
The above is an image I snapped with my iPhone out the window of our plane on our way to Atlanta. I adore Georgia O'Keeffe and the above totally made me think of her. The sky looked like this most of the flight. It was mesmerizing to me. The main reason for this post, however, … Continue reading Homage to Georgia
The new normal
Well, it's been a while. We returned a couple days ago from an 11-day trip to New York, New Jersey, and Atlanta, mostly for business. If not for the fact that Blue Eyes caught a bad cold and was sick as a dog the entire trip, and I mean he came down with it ON the … Continue reading The new normal
The land of the rising sun
I am finally over the jet lag from our latest trip to Japan. It took quite a few sleepy days and a couple mostly sleepless nights, but yes, we're home and we're sane again. When we left I was wearing sandals... not any more, it's definitely time to pull out the wellies and the mittens. Thanksgiving has … Continue reading The land of the rising sun
