Firstly, I am so sorry that it has been so long since I have last posted..bet you all secretly thought that Chris, having read my last post, had whisked me away to sing songs of my choosing! Alas, I have not heard from him yet but there is always hope! Given the look of the above cupboard I think he would give me a wide berth. But yay, it is no longer like that.. it changed to this..
..and then it changed to this..
..umm..much better don't you think?
I can't quite believe that I have my own linen cupboard. You see our home is very small and we don't have much space for storage. Infact I'll let you into a little secret. This cupboard was Tom's wardrobe hence all the girlie bits are able to be shut away by the door! He never used it so I thought that I would take it over and keep the children's bedding in it and it's bliss to be able to see all the bedlinen which was previously squashed into a drawer. Not a nice experience for a lady who actually enjoys starching and ironing her linen!
I keep opening the door and just staring..
I also have exciting news..very, very exciting (brace yourself Fe!). About 6 weeks ago I made enquiries about adopting a Persian cat from a rescue centre. They didn't have anything available but kept my name on file. Well yesterday I received a call to say that a ginger and white kitten of about 8 months was available! He is a little boy who is used to other cats and is very loving and gentle. We go to pick him up on Friday. It is apparently quite rare to have such a young cat in a rescue centre and as yet I don't know anymore about him; but I am desperately hoping we will bond with him and he will make Posy a big sister! So.. watch this space.
Tomorrow we take the children to Salisbury again to stay with Granny & Poppa for a few days. Yay and yay again! Anth and I have decided to stay home and chill..which will mean for me..sew, sew ,sew and sitting infront of my lit fire and going out to eat and picking up our new baby boy-cat(fingers crossed!)
I've even managed to wangle a trip to Shaftesbury on our way back, so this time I can enjoy the Green Gate shop without the sulky faces (though that is my most favourite photo ever!) Gosh, this has turned into a long post. Thank you for all your comments about my Chris post..some of you have even met him and sent me the wonderful photos...sigh!
I'll be back soon..
