DAYs like These// Lifestyle

MAY oh MY.....

It seems like the month of april went by so quickly and now its the first of May.
A national holiday here and in other parts of world it is celebrated.
April was superb , the weather was gorgeous, sunny and warm. And with the easter holiday,
birthdays to celebrate and visitors it seemed to fly by - not to forget the GoT series couldn't miss that! I do enjoy the season and spring ,but it seems to always come and go to fast for my liking.

Well after all the celebrations  I was feeling so tired. Plus I took some time off to prepare.
(renovation or assembling new bookcases)  Now the place is what i would say a bit of a mess.
The bedroom has some clothes piled on the bed (sweaters from winter) , books piled up,
advertising flyers on kitchen counter, etc.... sorry sight to see. But I really am so tired
I felt like  I ran a marathon.  Whether it was the excitement , stress or the spring changes,

One thing I use to do when city life got to me, I would pack our suitcase, 
head to the lake and RELAX.
Yes NATURE and the outdoors is a cure. The solitude, the quiet, the sounds of the birds singing and the wonderful fresh air does wonders for ones mind and body.

JUST AROUND THE CORNER
Getting outdoors, breathing the cool fresh air and just going to walks or bike rides can be
the ultimate pick me up.  But even in the city there are wonderful places to explore, pathways,
parks and sitting by the water and watching the sailboats drifting by.
There are even places to rent a boat. So what more can you ask for!









HAVE A GREAT MAY - EVERYONE!!

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...
