Ahoy polloi (an island for the masses)

[remainsilly]

Scandinavia?! Oooooooh!

Scandinavia! Do tell!

Been wanting to make trip for awhile--Denmark/Ærø, Norway, Sweden.
Suddenly, BOOM! Universe sent nice opportunity. Next month--with summer crowds & midnight sun.

The universe has weird humor--but usually steers me right. When I listen.
Must schedule time to study/relearn about packing cubes...

Thanks
Finished reservations. Cannot believe how much done in 2 days.
Now, plenty of time to panic over & doubt minute details.

Also gave 1 of my signed jerseys to nice kid at ballpark--must have thanked me 45 times. Wore it entire game. I like polite kids.

Life lessons through baseball:
1) Avoid sitting beneath the net pigeon.

2) As we give, so shall we receive.
(yes, a new signed jersey found me)

Will you take your jersey and bag when you go to Scandinavia? You might meet baseball players over there too...You must cover all bases, remainsilly.

I see your pun. Clever.
But alas, my 1 carry-on-only will hold rain gear & mosquito repellent.
And clif bars.
Leaving no room for usual crazy crap.

What are other islanders doing lately?

Did I ever mention that I do not *like* pigeons?
(Shoot them!)

Conference today. Had to stand behind a desk to do marketing for our own conference. Boring stuff, but food was good.
Bag: LP Bilberry.
Now on the way to the country.

Beach day today with Miss 11 and my mom and nephew; awesome day.

Last day of school! 9 long weeks of holidays ahead of us. As the 11 year old will have to change school when we move there were a lot of emotions, tears and goodbyes today. She will leave for her Granny in the Alps on Sunday and won‘t come back until shortly before moving.

Still adapting to new facts, but as there are a lot of changes ahead, I try to take babysteps one at a time.

Bag of the day was pink Coach with Codello silk scarf and Swarovski bracelet.
Love the Coach! It is roomy and slouchy. Almost noone here has a Coach bag so it feels very special. In real life bag and bracelet habe the same color.

I hate pigeons too. My next door neighbour feeds about ten of them every day. She knows I am scared of birds and says that she tries to chase them, which of course isn't true.

You may have commented about it a few (billion) times.
I may have mentioned disliking horses once or twice.

Hooray, bilberry! And escape to country!

Great coordination!
Love pinks=very emotionally healing color.
Baby steps move us forward, same as huge steps. No wrong.

NYC encouraged Peregrine falcons, years ago, to live in city & eat pigeons.
Falcons are better at flying than cats. So hunts went very well.
