Checking in...

My time on the computer has dwindled of late...
there are more things keeping me busy that require my attention.


In advance of our trip to Italy 
I enrolled in a class at the local community centre.
Italian for travellers.

The language is beautiful...
it has a very melodic sound
and
spoken with such passion.

Learning a new language at my age is proving to be a challenge!
The teacher, 
who is from Rome,
gives us lots of homework and much of it requires memorization.

I am really enjoying the sessions
 have met many wonderful people 
who are also planning a trip to Italy.


The snow kept me indoors more than I would have liked...
I love to walk every day.

The fresh air clears out any cobwebs and energizes.
I discovered that noticing and savouring the beauty of nature has a positive effect on my mental well being.

So I suffered a bit with cabin fever...
which prompted me to clean out cupboards and drawers.
Many bags are heading off to the charity shop,


The snow is melting!
The roads are clear and only a few patches of snow linger in The Humble Bungalow Garden.

Walking has resumed!


I'm reading a great book...
have you read it?

What are you reading?
Do you have any favourite books to share?


My hair is greyer these days...
its longer and some days is curlier than others.
I've stopped washing it every day as grey hair tends to be dry.

My skin has been extra dry...
think it must be the cold weather.
I have been slathering on serums, moisturizers, body lotion and hand cream.

Are you on Instagram?

She lives in Paris and has an amazing shop called Crimson.
She is a style icon.
I plan to visit her shop when I go to Paris.

Many mature women are reinventing themselves...
the confidence, joy and passion that they share 
is positively invigorating...

Times up! 
Must close the laptop 
 I am meeting friend for a walk.

Thank you for stopping by The Humble Bungalow Blog.
