Buying Time - Assisi

We have done it all in one morning. Well Sally has. She bought the tasteful prints that will soon hang in our dining room to remind us of the Italian holiday. It seems obligatory. Our house is a shrine to vacations past. But we didn't stop there. We even bought the forgotten birthday present, plus a gift for a friend and a few postcards.

What a morning. I am exhausted. OK, she did all the work but I played my part. Time spent hanging around outside the shop and wandering off up the street is just as vital. Of course I was there when the important decisions were made. To agree with her choice. So the presents have my imprint as well. A job well done. That's what I say. Now I can relax from such stress and enjoy the holiday.
