WelcomeLuxe, calme et volupté.*
That sounds wonderful.
In today’s world, I find that there is a disturbing lack of all of the above. Maybe it’s the speed at which we live our daily lives, multitasking during each measured moment of the day and well into our nights. Whatever the reason, I think that we’ve lost something that our parents and grandparents took for granted. Not just an ease in society or how to throw an intimate dinner for six or write a thank you note, but an everyday elegance.
Easy and Elegant Life is my attempt to define what makes up an elegant existence and to pass along a few easy (and inexpensive) ideas for bringing back a little elegance to our everyday lives. Here you will find ideas for living, decorating, entertaining and dressing with an easy elegance. Not just my ideas. To help point the way, I intend to seek out all sorts of people -- professional lifestyle experts and those who seem to have been born elegant -- asking them what they believe constitutes elegance and how we can best achieve it.
So to those whom Honore de Balzac called “elegantologists” I dedicate this site and the good fight.
* From “L’Invitation au voyage” by Charles Baudelaire. The whole line reads: “Là, tout n’est qu’ordre et beauté/ Luxe, calme et volupté.”

Holy Mackerel, I hope everything goes well! You’ll be in our thoughts and prayers.
I’ll be saying a prayer for you, and I am sure this will be all right. At least it is the “new circle” and not the “old tube” MRI.

Prayers-as always.

Do let us know, as I will be worried until I hear.
I hope all goes well. You will be in my thoughts. The blog world continues to amaze me — how connected we become to people we’ve never met. Good luck. Susan
prayers and thoughts for a good outcome.
We will keep you and your family in our prayers…
Hope you are ok.
Praying
Sending up a prayer for Mr. E’s lifelong good health . . . and so grateful we have a premier medical industry (slightly flawed the health insurance system may be) that accommodates American citizens in their hour of need. Let’s keep it that way!
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family
Hope all work out well – thinking of you and pray that you will be in good health.
Remembering you in my prayers and thoughts. These things make us appreciate our loved ones and the good things in life, and to never take anything for granted. Looking forward to more of your wonderful posts. God bless you.
Square with Flair
Hello Dear Readers! So far, so good. This is the three month checkup after three years in remission (this time.) Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers. I know that they make a huge difference. No news is good news in my case, but I have at least a week to go before my case will get reviewed. Any time that I go into the hospital and they don’t strap me immediately to a gurney is a good visit, so I’m confident.
A real joy to discover was that they’ve cut an hour out of the procedure! An hour can be a small luxury.
Mr. Lane. That’s not “my” machine. Unfortunately. I still get tubed a bit. Not as bad as they used to be though. Or maybe that’s the sleep deprivation talking!.
Wishing you well.
Thinking of you.
The Golf Foxtrot has also been in remission for five years. I understand your road. Best to you.
Stay alkaline. You’re in my prayers every day.
