there are SOOO many things & people i/we've missed living out of the US & it MAY be worse now that we are back..& in MS! we've been gone from the Bay Area for soo long & we keep trying to find jobs SOMEWHERE on the W Coast, if for no other reason than my best friend MIchelle, our hairdresser RAINBEAU!!, & IN FULL SWING.
yes, i DO miss the beautiful clothes. when we moved to panama, we moved forever (or so we thought); so i gave away my collection of non-handkerchief linen flax, Tencel, SS sweaters, etc. panama's dirty, harsh water & a washing machine that MUST have had ROCKS in it, it literally ate all that FLAX.
It was such a joy to shop at IFS: the clothing is incredible but the people there are part of my adopted family. i miss them even more than i miss FLAX & you know, that's a LOT!
if any of you happen to read this, i now have an address where you can send all those books. we'll pay for the shipping.
