Ireland was. . . . . .Cosy

Lovely perfect days spent with my Mum and two sisters Tamzin and Leah, and not forgetting the doggies Tilly and Jake. I have laughed so much my abdominal muscles are sore. Didn't want to come home just yet.

Cindy

Thank you all so much for all the belt comments. Although I do love the top belt, I think it is decided that the paler belt will stay. I would keep both but thats just greedy and I do after all mainly need a belt to accompany this dress.

So its getting late now and I apologise in advance, not my usual taste but I had to share the madness of this link my husband sent me, Sandy runs the ultimate grooming parlor for dogs I warn you now that this is the tamest "do"of the lot! Cindy is obviously a legend at the shows?!

Something else fun here!

Sorry if all this commotion gave any of you a headache before sleepy time!

rocky road

Dark evenings and jittery creatures do not make for a good photo shoot but I gave it go. These little guys have been my friends for two weeks. I have loved giving them treats. The little dude at the end lives in the pent house up top the guineas. This hamster thought all his christmases had come at once when I snuck him a couple of macadamia nuts that were left over from making rocky road ice cream.

Well what a week! I have met so many lovely new people and for all the new visitors who have left comments I am very grateful it is so nice to talk with you in the comments section and click across to see how you spend your days too. I am currently guinea pig sitting for a friend. I bet you never imagined my life was this glamourous!
I actually have grown to quite like their squeaking company (Not so keen about trying to catch them on clean out days) but as I have never really had a pet of my own (allergic to all fur/feathers) its fun taking care of them. Surely the image of me trying to catch them wearing oven gloves is enough to make you smile on this drab Wednesday.

So anyway I am going somewhere with this, for those who have made purchases from my Etsy store I will resume shipping on Monday the 20th and be adding new items very soon after that.

I have other news too as I said earlier but it will have to wait until tonight when I have more time to dedicate. As always I am late for work so I better be off.

Show stopping

Just thought as I cosy up at home and wait for CSI with surprisingly good company in the form of a bar of extra fine dark Lindt, I would mention these two little beauties. A tiny prince and princess and probably my favorite two faces in the blogging world seemingly stealing the show most weeks on their owners blog posts and flickr pages. Gus and morran. Their owners are pretty fabulous too! Lena Corwin and Camilla Engman

Also loving this recent glimpse in Lena's super cool home on Apartment Therapy

Maybe if I can control my allergies and when we have an outside space one day, we can have a doggy all our own.
