Interesting photos
These photos, a concept by Daniel Rueda and Anna DevΓs, are quite creative. They're both architects, and it shows...










Have a nice week!

Serene Sunday
I think it is time for a quiet tranquil day. Many of our friends have had some very stressful days in recent weeks. With so much going on, it can be hard to catch a breath at times. Enjoy the following pictures, I find them calming, I hope you do too.
Have a peaceful day, my friends.

Cancelled Due to Insanity!
By the time you are reading this, the Royal Wedding of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle may well be over, especially if you are on the West Coast. Theatres, cathedrals, libraries, hotels and banquet halls across Canada are booked for morning wedding celebration parties.
I was planning a nice WTIOC Royal Wedding Brunch.
But my heart is broken once again for my American neighbours and I cannot pretend that everything is okay.
Enough is enough.
Since Jan 1 2018:
21,776 gun related incidents
5,406 dead
101 mass shootings
22 school shootings, average of 1 a week
Today is a day to grieve.
Tomorrow is a day to keep fighting. I believe in those kids from Florida and the young people they have inspired. Let's help keep their voices in the media. They will need the strength to carry on and they cannot do it alone.
π I send you all hugs.

The Bottle of Wine
I am off for one of those regularly scheduled unpleasant procedures today... so leaving you with a little laugh.
Sally was driving home from one of her business trips in Northern Arizona when she saw an elderly Navajo woman walking on the side of the road.As the trip was a long and quiet one, she stopped the car and asked the Navajo woman if she would like a ride.With a silent nod of thanks, the woman got into the car.Resuming her journey, Sally tried in vain to make a bit of small talk with the Navajo woman. The old woman just sat silently, looking intently at everything she saw, studying every little detail, until she noticed a brown bag on the seat next to Sally.'What's in the bag?' asked the old woman.Sally looked down at the brown bag and said, 'It's a bottle of wine. I got it for my husband.'The Navajo woman was silent for another moment or two. Then speaking with the quiet wisdom of an elder, she said:
'Good trade.....'This is a rebuttal to the one about husbands and their dogs... ; ))

Hmmmm.......
Who likes silly inventions? I found a few, let me know what y'all think. ( I decided to be Southern today ) π
Somehow I just don't see Duncan enjoying this!
I wonder if the butter is soft?
Question- Do you keep your butter in the fridge or leave it on the counter? I am a fridge girl.
Umm, no.
Looks dangerous!
This almost makes sense.
No thank you. Every dog in the neighborhood would be following me!
No comment.

Back in France
I arrived in one piece, despite a few annoying mishaps. Plane delayed, missed the train, stayed in a hotel, which was good because it's not so tiring when the journey is staggered. Caught the first train the following day, no problem there, but the next train was cancelled due to an accident on the line, so we were taken to another station on a bus, in torrential rain all the way. The train was waiting for the bus, then I had another 2 hour wait for the next one. The reason for so many changes of trains is that Macron is messing with people's pensions and various sectors are having strikes. The train services have been disrupted since early April!

It was an emotional journey. Being back where I have so many memories is difficult, and on top of it, the weather is lousy, with non-stop rain and it's quite a chilly. I have only a couple of changes of warm clothes, so I need to go shopping.
I have been following the blog, but must confess that the inspiration to write posts is not there yet. I'll get better after I've had some time to recover emotionally.
Enjoy the chats, peeps! P, please don't forget to post another update about the fire. I hope Annette recovers quickly from her burns. Ouch!
