5Well y’all I’m back in Savannah. There is still a big piles of boxes in the middle of my room with sundresses spilling out of it that cascades into the hall. It is shrinking every day but there is much stuff to throw out and many scraps of paper to save and a few memories to shut out too.
I’ve been a lazy girl, reclining at the beach and the yacht club and the landings and the floor of my room for hours. Today the only productive thing I did was make guacamole and find sorority recommendations.
Back to work tomorrow, help. How do I give a tour? How do I useful?
Also Kate is leaving for Paris on Wednesday and I will miss her so bad. But while you are gone, boo, I will hold down the everyday and our usual spot at panera and just don’t be too European to watch scandal with me in six weeks.
Good night.
