To Whine Or Not To Wine


I have never been to wine country.
Lately I have been living in 'whine' country with my miserable self.

But
I have always wanted to live and ride in the hills of a 'wine country' type area.
They just seem so .....
gorgeous?



I could see myself riding my beautiful  'Hershey'
through these hills.
Wow.
That would be a dream!!!



Is this not amazing?



Do you think they are 'whining' ?
I think not.



I have wanted to go to Portugal {for the tiles}
all my life.
Wouldn't you want to go?



No more whining for me.
I have an interview for a management position at a 
famous and fabulous fabric house
on May 21st.

  2. Renee,

    It all looks and sounds so divine. Fingers crossed for the May 21st interview. Hope the culture is appealing be sure to ask about it. We can all use a culture we look forward to co creating in instead of just existing in.

    You always do your best...this I know about you is true!

  4. Oh then I have all fingers crossed for you - that is wonderful. I was about to say, perhaps you should consider doing something dramatic, like moving to the Nappa valley if not Portugal, but then I read the last line. I am, as ever, on your side and truly wish that this pans out if it is a good company who will be a thrill to work with.

    And just for the record, I have always wanted to get to Portugal too. Oh my goodness, so many wonderful places to see and just the one lifetime... xx

  6. Dear Renée,
    I think that you are justified to have a little whine ...... and then go and drink a few glases of wine !! haha
    Lovely to know about your interview on the 21st. I'll be thinking of you.
    Have told your mum that i'm going for 'I'll Have Another' at the Derby on Saturday. Think of me when you see it trotting in last !! That's the sort of luck that I have when betting on horse races !! XXXX

  11. Great post! I love the play on words and of course I love all of the pictures! My mother in laugh always says "She's allergic to whining!" Sometimes we just have to, though! I hope all goes well with your interview! Can't wait to read more of your posts!
