Sunday! Day Two (& Three) of Operation Relocation

 Sunday! Day Two of Operation Relocation

Sunday, October 16, 2022

Southport, Connecticut

Just back from Sunday Mass. And what a fab Mass it was too!!!! I SO miss my Masses here!!! Brilliant homily! Priest Spoke about being a Jesuit theologian in Jordan & Jerusalem for years. Such a moving sermon and the priest too (Irish—Fr Thomas Fitzgerald) was emotional (blew his nose a couple of times) while preaching. HUGE welcome from my church community here!!! So many came up to say Hello and Welcome Back.

After breakfaast, Foraging around my closet continues! Unearthing all these designer gems—bag and shoe sets. The YSL bag is still in its original packing (have never used it).  Same with the Ferragamo cocktail shoes—never worn! Love the Bally bag and shoe set (wear them a lot).


Bringing all these to India. Don’t know if I will ever use them or if the weather will ruin them. They all come in protective cloth bags—hopefully that will help preserve them. But I simply don’t have the heart to leave them behind here!


Finished clearing out my closet; went grocery shopping to the supermarket and Trader Joe’s; drove my car after a year to my brother Roger’s place where we were invited for dinner. Lovely day…lthough not ultra-productive!


Oh…also met our next-door neighbors, the Homs. Will be staying in the spare apartment attached to their home once our interior decorators come in. 


Also can’t believe there was NOTHING in the fridge!!!!! Had to go grocery shopping and will need to cook tmrw—🤦‍♀️☹️That will take precious time away from clearing out!


Realizing I don’t just have a love for Jo Malone—I have a healthy obsession!!!! Look at all these boxes I collected and kept through the years!!! And if you could only see the amount of product I have, yet unused.


Met our next-door neighbors of 27 years: Pui & Ken Hom and daughter Taylor who got married last week! I missed her 12-course sit down Chinese Wedding Banquet by a week!!🥲Will be staying in the apartment attached to their home when our interior decorators come in.


Sorting through the detritus of my life, I have come across this article on my research in Bombay that appeared in the August 2019 issue of Sunday Mid-Day. Do take a read. It’s amazing what I am unearthing here.
