XXI Forever

XXI Forever... I tried distracting myself with sights along the way.

It worked. By the time I got near the door, I decided to eXit. A chance to buck unnecessary shopping is an eXtra good thing. Happy holidays!

    Believe it or not,I'm not a fan of shopping - especially with crowds at shopping malls. I prefer dreaming round quaint village shops. An interesting colourful post.

      Country girls at heart who are stuck in the city may not be as lucky. But they make do. It's still a nice nice Christmas this year.

    Shopping is so tempting, even if it is "unnecessary." You have great self-control! Happy Holidays!

    Great willpower! And pretty pics, too. Here in the states, the store is called Forever 21. I wonder if it is the same chain.

Wonder of a family tale

The Durrells: a trailer scene I have a dream... if you see the wonder of a fam'ly tale... I believe in --- The Durrells! I am dreaming. Oh well I did say 'I have a dream...'? I am only up to watching the trailer right now since I do not even know where in the name of all Thai TV stations or something like Thai PBS or Netflix Thailand can I find this series. And I saw Kitty Butler! (Tipping the Velvet) Aha! Why didn't I think of watching other films that star Keely Hawes? Maybe now I will.

Qrookshanqs joins a quorum of witches

Prologue: Thailand's Supreme Patriarch is dead.  The whole kingdom is in mourning mode. And that also means Khaosan Road, a usual party venue, is shut down. Parties go on though but behind closed doors and kept as private and quiet as possible. And that's how - Qrookshanqs ignores Ermione and wanders into Medusa's cave...  xxx xxx She comes as Grumpy Cat, tries not to forget who she is . Qrookshanqs is convinced that those are Nagini's ancestors on Medusa's head, and thinks what a waste of cauldron time taking photos is A smiling one joins them and the quorum is complete. Soon they chant eye of newt, toe of frog... lizard's leg and howlet's wing . Qrookshanks, ever the grief sucker, grumbles how do witches " boil and bake " fillet of a fenney snake or wool of bat at the same time ? Anyone? No one huh? Alright, grumpy mood intensifying nicely... Until the party is peaking and she starts smiling,

Limitless

I'm riding along Mommy Moments this week; my first post in months. I miss this meme, the kids' photos and the mommy chats. Alrighty here's CJ eyeing the next ride... This was some space capsule if I remembered it right - Everytime I fasten CJ on a helicopter, I daydream of my very first experience with aircrafts. I was his age. A helicopter with a bride on board flew low over our neighborhood dropping us bunches of red bougainvillas. To this day that beautiful spectacle remains alluringly fresh in my mind. For CJ I like to think this ride symbolizes a limitless sky he could soar into. I love the sensation of holding and releasing my breath watching him take off, and hoping he will be just fine. Check out more kids' rides at The Mommy Journey .
