And a perfect antidote, ...Oh this was just perfect.<br />And a perfect antidote, to a bothersome morning, a drive that should have been short and of course took forever because I got lost ( again) ... it is not me, it is this place.<br />These cities that have outdoor malls and the same shops and fast food places on every corner have no landmarks of their own.<br />And of course, I don't pay attention to the names of the streets I pass, only the streets I am driving on.<br />So a quick run to the market took me over an hour and the cats were clucking their tongues and giving me disapproving looks and when I picked up Minette to apologize, she turned her face away. I have been duly punished.<br />I am now ready to pack up the cats and move to any cottage in the village and I will play the odd American lady with all the cats perfectly.<br />And you will have to introduce me to Winnie.<br />or else I am not moving there.<br />Notes From ABroadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12202279303962539035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20303812.post-37317003252561508972016-06-28T18:50:32.194+00:002016-06-28T18:50:32.194+00:00It has always been one of my fondest dreams, to li...It has always been one of my fondest dreams, to live in Mrs. Minvers' house!<br /><br />Lovely, update on the village.

His dermatologist, or your own good self, has probably already let him know that applying gentle pressure on the scar will help to break up the scar tissue. <br /><br />My most serious surgeries were back in the 1980s, and folks who did not know me then claim not to notice any of my scars...of course, I've got wrinkles now to help obscure them.<br /><br />Best wishes to all in your community. I like your reporting. xoFranceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08352407314710067616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20303812.post-25200146059244509922016-06-28T13:16:05.104+00:002016-06-28T13:16:05.104+00:00the prof is such a softy!the prof is such a softy!jaz@octoberfarmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17249328159454897124noreply@blogger.com
