I’m back from Italy so full of carbs and wine and beauty and laughter and espresso and friendship that it’s hard to focus. That might also be the jet lag. I was in true vacation mode, meaning I actively avoided any news or other connections to real life. It was bliss. I walked and gawked and learned and lounged and ate and drank and explored and discovered. So in place of my Monday thoughts, I bring you a pretty random selection of Monday images instead.
