Hello, dear friends. I've had one of those mornings where if it could go wrong, it will. Have I told you lately that I hate technology? All I can say is that I am grateful to the Mister who gave up his workout today to figure out my computer mess. Btw... if there are more typos than usual, you know why.
Not too much new around here. I received my Moderna booster, which knocked me out for a full day. It was worth it, though. I now feel like I have a superpower.
This morning, I'm taking Millie to get her first haircut. She is getting spayed on Monday. The Mister and I are dreaming hopeful that this will calm her down a bit.
Here are six design tips that you can steal from this London Victorian Townhouse.
Do you love Lucy?
There's a podcast for that.
Did you watch Maid?
I loved it.
This is what the author is up to now.
Are you or a loved one looking for a job?
Here are 13 questions to ask in an interview.
And one of them is not:
Can I begin my two-week vacation on the first day of employment?
I learned that the hard way.
It's now wonder my professional career never took off.
This sounds like my kind of show.
Need some Thanksgiving table inspo?
It's right here.
You can find out more info here.
Last but not least, I have two winners of The Gobble Book. I just want to thank everyone who commented. I loved reading your answers. Especially the ones that mentioned me.
If you are in the least bit wondering what scientific method I use for my giveaways, it goes something like this.
I assign a number to every comment. I then write them on tiny bits of paper and put them in a bowl and let the Mister pick the numbers. I do that purposely because if you didn't win, I want you to be mad at the Mister and not at me.
The Lucky Winners are:
I would need to invite two people to Thanksgiving, Jan Karon/Mitford Series and Louise Penny/Gamache Series. Two of my favorite authors. Would love to live in either town and interact with the characters in each.

You didn't say dead or alive, so I am going with Jackie Kennedy. I think it is fascinating how she spun the whole Camelot story and made it a thing to add even more luster to her husband's legacy.
Congrats to Karen and Debbi!
Please email me your addresses asap!
Until next time...
Cashmere and lots of colors.
I ordered this one.
I bought a few of these tissue turtlenecks.
