This week, I have had a lot of friends reach out to me. Great. Because it is rather bleak in this small apartment in Paris. I have my favorite songs playing on Spotify; Missy is close by; and a lot of projects in the works, so I stay busy. AND, I have WiFi (FINALLY) andContinue reading “ALIVE IN MY HEART! LILLIE!”

ON MY MIND – PARIS, FRANCE – the first weekend in Lockdown
HERE’S WHAT IS ON MY MIND…… Go grab a cup of coffee, if you want to. I have a few things that I want to say. Actually, I am speaking to myself as I write this as well as to all of my readers.

RANDOM THOUGHTS DURING “LOCKDOWN – PARIS”
For those who don’t know, I am in Paris, France, under lockdown. What does that mean? For me, it means that I need to stay home and “self-quarantine” as much as possible. Why? Because I don’t want to die just yet. I still have some things that I really want to do in this areaContinue reading “RANDOM THOUGHTS DURING “LOCKDOWN – PARIS””
ONE FROM THE HEART, FROM ME TO YOU……
Last night, while I was reading articles online about the virus, I heard the news in France. “Starting at midnight Saturday, (last night), all non-essential businesses — including cafes, restaurants and movie theatres — will be closed until further notice, French Prime Minister Édouard Philippe said. Banks, gas stations, supermarkets and pharmacies will remain open”Continue reading “ONE FROM THE HEART, FROM ME TO YOU……”
“‘YOU CAN’T STOP LIVING'”
I posted this piece on Facebook this week because I feel a sense of panic when I read many of the posts on social media. This post helped to calm me down, but it is just a matter of this doctor’s opinion. Well, that is all we have to go on – people’s opinions. IContinue reading ““‘YOU CAN’T STOP LIVING’””
JUST SAYIN…….
This has been a wonderful week! I have gotten an excellent Vet who has helped Missy, and I have gotten a dentist in the neighborhood who cleaned my teeth. This is his waiting room. He may or may not be a keeper. I like his taste in art. And, finally, I got a housekeeper, whoContinue reading “JUST SAYIN…….”
A WORD OF EXPLANATION…..
Your vision will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes. – Carl Jung After my last post, I had several people who care about me ask if I were all right? I think they were taking my post literally. No, it is/was metaphorical. Continue reading “A WORD OF EXPLANATION…..”
BLACK SWAN RISING…..
One day in Nice, a friend and I were having lunch. I commented that I oftentimes have difficulty communicating with other people because most people don’t seem to “get” what I mean. They think they do, but they don’t. So, I just let things go and feel like I have been misunderstood. She said toContinue reading “BLACK SWAN RISING…..”
RANDOM RAMBLINGS IN PARIS
Today, I am going to ramble and try to clarify my thinking at the same time. I have now been in Paris for three weeks and three days. I cannot begin to tell you all that has happened during that time. A LOT. I have solved problem after problem, some successfully, others not so successfully. Continue reading “RANDOM RAMBLINGS IN PARIS”
ST-GERMAIN-DES-PRES
Talk about stumbling through antiquity, I wandered into a “church” to light my February candles for my family. The “church” was going through a lot of reconstruction, so I made my way to the candles, paid my fees, said my prayers, and lit my candles and took a picture to remind me of February blessingsContinue reading “ST-GERMAIN-DES-PRES”
