I know you all already saw the pics, before and during a few days ago but now it’s official, I’ve lost that baby calf in weight!
Taking my specialist and Hippocrates wisdom and making it my mantra has proved fruitful.
So I will just leave you today with my internal celebration And a beautiful poem by Mary Oliver about living right now.
Love, Sue
“THE FOURTH SIGN OF THE ZODIAC (PART 3)
I know, you never intended to be in this world. But you’re in it all the same.
So why not get started immediately.
I mean, belonging to it. There is so much to admire, to weep over.
And to write music or poems about.
Bless the feet that take you to and fro. Bless the eyes and the listening ears. Bless the tongue, the marvel of taste. Bless touching.
You could live a hundred years, it’s happened. Or not. I am speaking from the fortunate platform of many years, none of which, I think, I ever wasted. Do you need a prod? Do you need a little darkness to get you going? Let me be as urgent as a knife, then, and remind you of Keats, so single of purpose and thinking, for a while, he had a lifetime.”
Mary Oliver (Blue Horses)
So I set off for Newport with four disposable cameras (I don't own a Leica, shock – horror!), a very large suitcase filled link with enough outfits for link the ten different dress codes required of attendees over the weekend, and a large gray Lange-branded umbrella because it ended up link raining for the entire weekend. There goes my lawn party cocktail look.

There are plenty of gems in the Reflection collection: an all white diamond-set model for the traditionalist; a model with a peacock motif, made up of chrysoprases, obsidian, emeralds, Paraiba tourmalines with iridescent blue-green lacquer link – for the bold; and an link opal, amethyst, spessartite garnet and tiger's eye set cuff – for link the even bolder.
Steel watches, of course, are not Patek's link thing. The 180-year-old company earned its reputation as the world's most prestigious watch brand on the strength of exquisite gold complications and dress watches. Of the 62,000 watches it says link it makes annually, a mere fraction of its men's link watches have steel cases.
