Today’s Mistake- Breaking a glass mug

 

I visited the Oktoberfest in Munich, Germany, with my friend Patti. We had left the event and were walking back to the apartment where we stayed and it was late at night. I had a quart-size beer pitcher in my hand, empty, of course. I dropped it on the sidewalk, and it broke into a hundred pieces. Gone was that special souvenir. 

Don’t drop your prizes on the way home. Protect your glass.

Thanks, Pat, for that encouragement.   The FAQ for today is:  How do you choose your outfits for weather conditions that constantly change? The answer is more straightforward than you think: It's basic colors, basic footwear, and layers, including a layer of insulated and waterproof clothing with a hat. You can also buy things along the journey, so if you don't have one now, you can get one later. What brings you more confidence? Is it knowing where you are going to sleep tonight? Is it knowing the language? Is it knowing you don't have to worry about anything? Let me know your thought...
