Hi APJ Family,
As we all know not everyday will be a FAB U LOUS one. Some days are full of seven thousand types of shit and heartache. Even if the day has been great doesn’t necessarily equate to happiness either. We are human, this is normal. We are not always dissectible emotionally. There are days when all we can do is count our blessings, be nice to ourselves and others and make it safely to the end of the day.
Some of my mates have a Facebook site dedicated to dealing with less that wonderful emotional rides. Here are some of the latest crop of pieces that resonated for me.
I hope they work as a hug to you all today.

Here’s the new DIOR Homme Cologne ad. I like it.

Hi Portia,
Great post and timely, too. I’ve been mixing up my spring elixir to get the day going here. The full moon/eclipse/red moon last night was intense.
Do you know who did the music in this video? When I tried to google it, the portal was swamped with hits on the Robert Pattinson Dior Homme Video with the Led Zep track. I really like this new video: the visuals seem very French & the music very American.
Cheers for a more Cote de Azur day! J

Hey Jackie,
I thought the music excellent too but no idea where it springs from. Have you tried SHAZAM?

Many thanks for posting something that we all need, Portia. The past few weeks had been very sad for me, and I could really use a big, comforting hug – even a virtual one … again, thank you.

I was horribly depressed yesterday, so I can relate. Fortunately today is a better day!
