Oh what a beautiful morning!

Isn't life wonderful? I am half way to deciding what my next step will be, half way to a house that will not disgrace me, I had a lovely night last night with my dearest darlingest husband, I am surrounded by luck and winning online twice in a week. That's TWICE IN A WEEK!! and life is beautiful. My Ma rang to ask what shoe size the princess is so she can get her pink crocs.... pink crocs, I might need a pair and to say that she had found some Corolle dolls comme on a vu a Marie Claire Idees, did I want one? (Duh? Of course!) The rain is saving me the job of watering the garden, I can wear my favourite Butchers window top (everything is on display) and I feel good. When your friends ask about the smile and the glow you know life is good. Mr Amazon delivered the Barefoot Contessa in Paris, my two favourite Time Lords are going to battle it out tonight (And, thank goodness, I know that David is not leaving after this series, but hopefully this episode will make me cry. I do dearly love a good cry) and all my family are well, happy and 'bien dans leur peaux' (if that's the right way to make it plural.... school girl french. Very cracked.)
My most wonderful cyber smiles to you all today..... It's a good day. I wish all of you a day of sunshine even if the weather is dismal, grey & dark.

    I'm so happy that life is so wonderful for you just now!
    It has been a while since I last wrote, thanks for your concern! Life is up and down at the minute, just when you take one step forward, something makes you go back again. But I'm coping, and living! Will hopefully update today

    Dr Who was fab tonight (as always) Just a shame we won't be seeing more of the gorgeous John Simm as 'The Master'.
    I have tried to email you but don't know if I have been successful?

    It sounds like you're feeling very positive - could you send some of that feelin' down here, so I can make it through the rain we're having?! Not to mention the leaking kitchen roof *sniffs*!

    Have a great week!

    Oooh yes, pink crocs - jump at them - I am living in mine and either people are commenting because they genuinely like them, or because they think "Poor old soul, better be kind to her, she's clearly lost it." I'm not sure which. Anyway, I'm glad you've been having a good time!

    I am glad today is beginning with sunshine for you!

    What television show were you speaking of? Are you a fan of science fiction? I watch some sort of trek everyday... sighs... I have loved star trek ever since I was a little girl when my dad would watch the b/w reruns of the original series on television on Weekend mornings. I wanted to be near my daddy, so I would sit at his feet to watch t.v. with him. Thus, I became a fan of Lost in Space and Star Trek at an age when most children were still fans of romper room! :-)

    Hi, I just happened on to your blog and it looks like a place I'd like to come back to. I also noticed that you have my Sunday Afternoon Drive blog linked and I'm pleased. I hope you enjoy my journeys with me.

    You have some links I think I'll visit.

    I'm so glad your happy, and all in life is going well. Aren't those days fantastic !

    I assume your talking about Dr Who, I missed the last eposide. And I just love Captin Jack. WE saw John Barrowman at christmas time in the pantomine at Cardiff. (Wherehe lives.) He was at the stage door after, we had his photo and autograph, and he was really chatty. - love Julia x

My Latest Trick...

I really need to introduce you to my latest hooky love, before it gets finished and I end up not telling you the back story. Let me show you what I'm on about first; World, meet Autumn Ripple Blanket (Autumn for short). You see, I have a granny square with flowers and a black background blanket that I'm desperate to finish for my bedroom, and a list of decorative items I'd like to do for Autumn and Christmas, so I sat down last week to make an Autumn Inspirations board on Pinterest (like you do) and made this; https://www.pinterest.com/angeljem5/autumn-and-fall/ and I loved the colours and the feelings it aroused in me. Colour-wise I am a warm autumn, but very often misbehave and don't wear them (long reason; won't say now) but I do love them, and the whole Season of Mists and Mellow Fruitfulness bit, so the board keeps filling up with pure autumnal inspiration. Until this one hits my eye. From The Glamorous Housewife's site . And the colours are be...

"small elements of my home that I do not detest and that I have photographed so as to eliminate all traces of dirt and detritus". I love reading all the blogs on my list. I love reading all the house books that I can lay my hands on, ripping them to pieces and sticking them into my inspiration books. I won't get into how much more time I have to actually do things around my house if I don't go on t'internet and how much more money I would have available if I didn't have this programmed need to buy buy buy ..... I admire the true homemakers, I really do. I have a hankering to have a successful business, clean house and a family who can find matching socks without looking in three different places and finally finding the match half way behind the sofa cushion where it's been for three weeks so that I have to wash it before they can wear it and they either have to wear it wet, in which case I worry about pneumonia, or start again on the quest for a pair with ...
