Little things that make me Smile!

When I was 19 years old something magical happened in a very pretty square called Place des Célestins. in Lyon

The square used to be a regular hangout for me and my friends. It is where, we argued, put the world to right, shared our dreams. Little did I know, one evening nearing the end of Summer, the Universe had a surprise for me.

He was not part of our group, did not even live in Lyon ( a visitor from Paris). I did not know him, our eyes locked, nothing else seemed to exist. That was the first time I met my husband. Forty happy, glorious years followed.



Happy Valentine’s Day 💘💘💘💘

A little early, but we’re off to celebrate!



Place des Célestins… has not changed much and a very special place for us.

Au revoir !!!
 

A couple down the lane from me are enthusiastic gardeners, they're always at it, gardening I mean. ☺️
When I'm passing, the lady in particular seems to be clipping and snipping at various plant to improve their appearance, and I can't resist saying, "You've missed a bit Jenny!"
She often replies, "How would you know, Tim, you haven't even got your specs on?"
I do the usual 'ooing' and 'arring' about how lovely her garden is, and to be fair, it really is superb to look at, and sometimes, they invite me in for a cup of tea.
I always leave their place with a smile on my face. ☺️
 
Bonjour, les gars et les poupées.
Comment vas-tu aujourd'hui?


Nothing like the splashing of water, the rhythmic movement of a boat, the sound of the wind in the sails and the motion of the waves to bring tranquillity to the mind, peace to the soul and joy and well being to the heart!
