It took me 27 hours to get to Denmark!!! I was delayed out of Boston, missed my connection in Frankfurt and had to wait 9 hours for the next one, which was also delayed. Thankfully, I was able to hang out in the Star Alliance Gold Lounge. But, the wifi service wouldn’t take my credit… Continue Reading
Sensible Shoes
Pigs must be getting ready to fly because I just bought a pair of Born sandals! I can’t say I’m happy about it, but cobblestones and stilettos don’t mix, and at least they’ve got sort of a heel, and that cute flower. The times, they are definitely a-changin’…

My offer on the dream apartment was accepted!!! A mason confirmed that the cracks in the foundation were normal for a 1907 building and of not any structural concern, and the seller has agreed to fix all of the other issues in the inspection report, leave some of the fixtures and furnishings I liked, tile… Continue Reading
