Hello my dears!! Well I hope you well today - I am afraid this is going to be a short post as I am feeling pretty awful and not quite with it as I have been trying to get things ready for a craft fair that I am doing over the weekend but I think I may have over done it as now I just want to sit, sleep and ignore that great hunk of bone that is my spine which is yelling in protest. Ouch.
Yes, did you know I am doing a fair Saturday and Sunday? Did I mention it? I think I may have blocked it from my own mind as I certainly am not prepared in any way!!! I think there has been a real case of denial going on in this household this week. The only fortunate thing is that it is a shared table with my arts group so the fact that I have barely a thing for it at least will not be a complete disaster. Oh and also that it means I can only stay as long as I am able to help out. So that is good.
Anyway - for the definite piece of news!! Our holiday ....is booked..... and look where we are going!!! This gorgeous 1930's beach chalet in cornwall. I am in love. Just look at where the sand starts......the beach is on the doorstep!! My mind is wandering so forgive me if I am repeating previous blogs - but this well be our first real holiday together as we have always gone up to Scotland to visit with my family which is far from a holiday!!! And just
look at the inside..... how cute!!! Oh dear I am having trouble getting these photos in the right place but you get the idea.....
So we are off to the sea in around 6 weeks time! For a week of sketching, painting, picnics, long sunset walks and healthy sea food and just being together and ..... well just..being. It will be a grand adventure indeed.
Ok - I have to be off. My quilt is calling me for a short nap before I make another attempt to get things in order for tomorrow. Sorry for the short, abrupt and completely non productive nature of this post!
I am hoping for another piece of news over the weekend.... a maybe.... a possibility....of a potential wonderful thing. But I musn't get too excited. It is a secret until I hear whether it will be a reality ...... Shhhh
And NO..... it doesn't involve babies or weddings....just so you know
Have a wonderful weekend!!
I am positive that the fair will be great....and you have a stunning holiday to look forward too....

Oh, my darling girl! How I send well wishes your way :( Hope you feel better!
But, I must say, the idea of a holiday is wonderful!!! And that 30's chalet is wonderful! Now, you must make sure to pay a visit to Tori (amos) as she resides in Cornwall...And, since she might be on tour, why don't you just sneak in and peak at all her treasures?? Okay, you might get arrested.. hee he... Just ring the doorbell...Tell her, you are there for tea and any proper lady would serve you tea, no matter what level of a Goddess she might think she is..... :) LOVE U!!! xxo,V

my darling gill, what a wonderful little place!!
you will have a beautiful time, and I agree, a visit home to the family does not count as a holiday.

That looks just lovely! Your a lucky girl!
Also, I chose you to be "tagged" and list 7 little facts about yourself ( only if you wish, of course.)
Here is my post about it:
