Things I tell myself are “vital” before hoovering the house ready for visitors: making infinite (novice) flower arrangements 💐 also please enjoy the reflection of @robgilbertuk’s aeroplane poster he is so proud of!
Pretending it’s not a million degrees outside and that I don’t have approximately thirty mosquito bites en route to wine time 🥂 (basically an excuse to show off my new @oliveandsiena earrings which I’ve been surgically attached to since they arrived a week ago) 🤍
Charlotte in Charlottesville 🖌
Almost heaven… (sorry, couldn’t resist…)
2022 and 2017… almost exactly five years apart. When I spent a summer as a museum intern in Virginia, I would never have predicted that five years later I’d be living in the US (and that I’d make @robgilbertuk drive with me across three states for a weekend trip and think that was a very acceptable distance). If nothing else, this proves I can tan a slight bit. And it was lovely to revisit Maymont and retrace my steps 🌿
Cataloguing but simultaneously thinking about how to pick the right lottery numbers so I can buy a house full of antiques 🏠
