So I am at a cross roads. I have to make decisions regarding my next move. I can not believe how time has flown. It seems like I have just arrived. Part of me really wants to remain in London. I feel that there is so much that I haven't done. I had a couple set backs earlier in the year. But, I have come out of it renewed, strengthened, and revived. The other part of me does misses my life back in the States. The one thing that I have learned and which was solidified, is that I need to fall back and let GOD do his thing. I don't know about you, but I have made some choices which I thought made sense, but actually were no good. So, I am continually learning to yield to the Divine Creator's will and purpose for my life.
So the big question - Am I moving back stateside or will I remain in London. The answer - I really don't know. I am keeping my options open and yielding to what GOD says I must do.
It is the unofficial summer here in London. However, to be honest, it doesn't feel like summer to me. From what I am told, it really doesn't get extremely warm in London. So it's to basically wear your summer clothes now, or you never will. So, I am pulling out my summer gear whether or not the weather warrants. I'll just make sure I carry a "jumper" ( English term for light sweater, pull-over, or cardigan) with me at all times.
As a totally unrelated topic, Selfridges is celebrating their 100th Anniversary. Anyone who knows me, can attest to the fact that I have been known to partake in a bit of retail therapy from time to time. And Selfridges is one of my favorite department stores here in London. It reminds me of Bloomingdales back in the states. Most visitors to London tend to be more taken with Harrods. In my opinion, Selfridges has a bit more edge and youth appeal. As part of their 100th anniversary, Selfridges has commissioned several designers to do limited edition items. So you can buy Selfridges 100th Anniversary Levi Jeans £200 ($300) or even the Limited Edition Selfridges 100th Anniversary Louis Vuitton Speedy Bag £1,700 (see picture above). In additon, Selfridges is launching a Louis Vuitton concept store. It's almost like a LV museum. The store has this display of all these Louis Vuitton Monogram Speedy Bags which are put together like an art installation. It's quite cool to see for those who are into Louis Vuitton.
Anyways, enough of the vapid banter. All is well, and I will update my blog once I get a clue about what my next steps. Hasta La Vista
