Gone hiking (almost)



I'll be winding things down in the next week, temporarily ending my eBay listings, although my etsy shop will continue as usual. When I return to eBay in early September, there will be new things (being created as we speak). Starting August 22, I'll be on a short vacation that is sorely needed and that I look forward to. Being self-employed, it's rare that I actually take time off, and it is time I did so!


My classmate and good friend, Sylvie, is having me over for a few days -- I'll be going all the way to Dublin just to gab in French and eat clafouti (I can't wait). Sylvie and I were the only native French speakers in our class. Then I go south to see the family, and I'm hoping to hike in the Wicklow Hills. They are a very special place for me.


Meanwhile, I really am going to go and see The Bourne Ultimatum -- in a couple of hours.


Have a swell day!

    I know you are going to have a wonderful vacation (and a well deserved one too). Your friend Sylvie will be so pleased to see you (and to speak in French too).

    Hope you take some photo's of your travels to share with us upon your return.

    Thanks again for the wonderful, wonderful birthday gifts my friend. As soon as I have moved and set up my laptop I will be doing a blog post and including photo's of your wondrous gifts!

    Love you

    P.S Love your latest piece of birdy art. And hope you enjoyed the latest Bourne movie. Matt Damon visited Australia recently and the media loved him!

    oh Colette! how wonderful - a little break.. to a place you love.. I must look the Wicklow Hills up, I love the name. I have made clafouti - I love it.. I am sure it is not as delicious as 'real french' clafouti.. but it tastes yummy just the same.
