What are you looking for?

πŸ‡©πŸ‡° Thank you for all your messages of love and support πŸ’– Yesterday's events in Copenhagen have shaken us to the core. Violent crime is practically non-existent here in Denmark so our country is in deep shock πŸ‡©πŸ‡° Love to all those affected and to the victims' families. A couple of my friends were caught up in the tragedy, but got out safely πŸ˜” I'm sharing photos from Friday morning where my Besties had put on a beautiful birthday breakfast (one of our many winterbathing traditions) πŸŽ‚ After breakfast I headed into the city for the start of the Tour de France here in Copenhagen (see previous posts) 🚲🚲🚲 Three magnificent, historic days where the Danes rejoiced, opened their hearts and shared all the beauty of our country with the world πŸš²πŸ‡©πŸ‡°πŸŒ I am so very, very grateful for all my friends, family and life here in DK. Once again, thank you so much for your messages. Hug those around you! πŸ’– Are you watching the race from your country? 🀩 Tour de France - Part Two! πŸš²πŸ‡©πŸ‡°πŸπŸ‡«πŸ‡·πŸš²β˜”οΈ A few more sights and sounds from an amazing day with @erikabirch_artanddesign ! See yesterday's post for Tour de France 2022, part one, where Le Tour had its Grand DΓ©part in our wonderful wonderful Copenhagen - officially the best bike city in the world! πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ˜ πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸ‡«πŸ‡·πŸ‡©πŸ‡°πŸ€©πŸ‡©πŸ‡°πŸ‡«πŸ‡·πŸ‡©πŸ‡°πŸ‡«πŸ‡·πŸ‡©πŸ‡°πŸ‡«πŸ‡·πŸ‡©πŸ‡°πŸ€© Oh, and I have a new mug!!! #clutterfreesouvenir πŸ˜… 🀩 What are you waking up to? Hot coffee, the sound of rain battering on the windows, sink full of dirty dishes, a hungry cat? πŸ˜… I don't always feel like doing my Routines but I looooove the flipside, when I wake up all groggy and the coffee is hot and our kitchen doesn't look like a disaster zone! πŸ™ŒπŸ˜„πŸ”₯β˜•οΈβ˜€οΈπŸ’¦ You don't have to want to do your Routines, you just have to do them! πŸ˜‰ I always remind myself of why I wanted to have these Routines...because they make life easier! 😊 Set a timer for 5 minutes and go do something from your list! ⏰️⏰️⏰️ πŸ˜„πŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸ‡©πŸ‡°πŸπŸ‡«πŸ‡·πŸš²πŸš²πŸš² Oh my, what an amazing day with @erikabirch_artanddesign ! Tour de France 2022, part one! The Tour is kicking off in wonderful wonderful Copenhagen this year! Yes, it rained (after a full week of sunshine and a heatwave) but, hey ho, Tour What's on your Errand List?? πŸ’πŸ”₯πŸ‡©πŸ‡°β˜€οΈ Happy Thursday from Copenhagen where the heatwave continues...I saw the supermarket had put the kids summer/beach toys in a chiller cabinet (see second photo)! πŸ€½β€β™€οΈπŸ€Ύβ€β™€οΈπŸ€Ύβ€β™‚οΈπŸ’¦πŸ˜‚πŸ‡©πŸ‡°β„οΈβ˜€οΈ Today is "Errand Day" in Flylady Land but it can be any day of the week which suits YOU! πŸ‘πŸ˜ƒπŸ›’ What do you need to pick up from the chemist/pharmacist, buy at the supermarket, hand in to the library or get from the ironmonger/hardware store? A Spa Kit for your favourite pooch?! πŸ˜…πŸ•πŸ© Our stores are full of seasonal summer items (parasols and window boxes) and "celebration" items are on offer (booze, candies, etc). Make a list/gather things before you head out the door to run Errands. Having a list/plan is a great time, money and stress saver! I handed in/picked up books from our fabulous local Danish library πŸ“šπŸ“šπŸ“š and my grocery list was short: milk, eggs, coffee β˜•οΈ 🍳😍 What's on yours? Is it too hot to declutter? No! πŸ˜…πŸ”₯🌑πŸ”₯ Phew, we’re having a heatwave here in Copenhagen! πŸ‘‹πŸ˜„πŸ‡©πŸ‡° Luckily I live on the coast and can skinnydip in the sea - enjoyed my breakfast (and a chapter of my book) there this morning πŸ€©β˜•οΈπŸ²πŸ‡©πŸ‡°πŸŠβ€β™€οΈπŸŠβ€β™€οΈπŸŠβ€β™€οΈπŸš²πŸš²πŸš²πŸŠβ€β™€οΈπŸŠβ€β™€οΈπŸŠβ€β™€οΈ But back to this week's Flylady Zone: we’re working on Flylady Zone 5, the living room for our detailed cleaning and decluttering. I found a couple of items to declutter there but it’s so hot today that I went down to our (slightly cooler) basement for aΒ speedy 15 minute declutter! LOL! Founds lots of things to let go of (we are empty nesters) – plenty of donations for my friend Karren who is helping refugees πŸ“¦πŸ“¦πŸ“¦ Will you join me? After all, it IS Wednesday, Anti-Procrastination day! πŸ˜… Let’s go! πŸƒβ€β™€οΈπŸ’¨πŸ’¨ I will be your timer!

Crocheting a Granny square, leafing through a glossy magazine, enjoying a hot chocolate with whipped cream and marshmallows? πŸ‘‹πŸ€© Mine was a few minutes talking to our red garden squirrels! 🐿🐿🏑 They were super hungry today (almost knocking on our back door πŸ˜…) and they looooove Danish ryebread and sunflower seeds. Hooray, they managed to live another day and avoid the pesky neighbourhood foxes! πŸ™ƒ I love our red squirrel family! 😍 Self-care doesn't have to cost money or take a lot of time. Just breathe for a few minutes πŸ§˜β€β™‚οΈπŸ§˜β€β™€οΈπŸ§˜ So, what's your self-care moment today? πŸ’–
