It's been an interesting day. I've been to the gym. I've given a reflexology session while listening to Lou Reed. I've binge watched about half of the series The Bear (and it's excellent).
Now, it's a matter of ironing one piece of clothing which has been washed and dried today, then doing a question, while trying to keep my cat off of my office chair. I feel so bad when I have to turf him off.

I love Ship of Fools and Sympathy for the Devil!
Oh--I haven't heard Ship of Fools in a very long time! You always have such fun music!
I'm wondering what gummy bears deodorant is like!
Good choice of places to go, even though London and England I liked far better than Paris and France. But it's good we don't all want to go to the same place.
Southern England is amazing. I have been there last year and loved the area. We're going back this year, we hope.
Enjoy your week!
