IN A PANIC .... 2 WEEKS LEFT// Lifestyle


OHHHHH CHRISTMAS TREE


I have always been pretty good at getting thing up and done before the holidays. But since moving here,, the one thing I noticed few people set up their decorations or trees to early.  I am the sort as soon as December arrives or snows the TREE IS UP. I love to sit and admire the lights ,  have some hot chocolate and listen to christmas music.   I figure why wait? Why go to all the work and setting up only the day before the 24th......  grrr.  I really want to enjoy the holidays, and not have to rush to set up and then  pull it down after such a short time. 

 Besides the tree  there are always a few special treats to make. Some traditional ones  like almond cookies and a special delicious donut .   This year i have done neither, baked or set up the tree.





Well really there is a good reason,  a few months ago I  damaged my knee badly, standing walking is impossible and still have to wait another month to recover. So walking around on crutches and wearing a brace is  not so great.  
So I am beginning to feel the crunch, or panic.  Its not CHRISTMAS without lights , trees and cookies!!!
Well this weekend, things will be on a roll.  Time is ticking......

 How goes your holiday plans? Have you made any special treats and set your tree up?

Flying high // travel

B  Time to Fly   Sumer holidays are around the corner and deciding where to go or what to pack can e daunting experience.  So what to pack ? Well after reading how some airlines charge passenger to check the baggage. First I believe the budget airlines started , but now the big name ones have also started to charge it! American Airlines , southwest , Air Canada .  And the extra cost if is a jackpot for the airlines.  I have not travel with the budget lines but have used some of the others mentioned  and  I won’t be booking any trips with them!  Really what do they think? If the operate a service to transport you and your belongs  that should be included , NOT an extra expense.  Give you an idea of what they collect in these extra fees  then read this report via BBC.  Truthfully people need to tell these companies  NO .  Even a handbag is next to the list.   They are making BILLIONS from from these extra fees!...

THIS and THAT//fashion , festival

 Season Changes Well it has finally cooled down which makes it bearable to be outside. Naturally the swimming pools , lakes and rivers have seen plenty o people .  Festivals , Films  and Fashion  The festival season is winding down,  but one that I anxiously wait for is the Venice Film festival. A movie and fashion lover can’t miss it!  The return of Clooney on screen in  Venice with his gorgeous wife is a highlight.  Her fabulous fuchsia gown with the train was stunning . She stole the show!  Of course there were other stars on the red carpet  but no outstanding dresses .  Movies some are getting mentioned . For myself I’m not  sure what I be tempted to watch.  Julia  Roberts new one about college professor sexual harassment is a serious topic . Not light entertainment.  One film with Helen mirren, pierce Brosnan  about senior mystery book club sounds like light entertainment. The actors are all over 60 , s...
