Day bed.

It's been a really hectic few days. On Monday I went to work until early afternoon and then drove Cecily to Wigan in Lancashire where we found a motel to stay in overnight. Then on Tuesday, we went to Wrightington Hospital where a specialist took a look at her shoulder (she has been having trouble with it for over 6 years now!). Then we went to see a friend in east Lancashire and headed home at around half four. Five hours later we finally got back. Then this morning I was up at six to take Cecily to the train station so that she could get back to university by lunchtime.

Dave and I have almost finished moving things into our new unit, including this lovely day bed which I will use to display quilts and big cushions until the day that someone buys the day bed. We have had lots of really lovely furniture arrive this week and also some nice country style Christmas decorations.

I am really looking forward to creating a small Christmas display in the shop, I have hoarded lots of folk art and gingham ribbon to make little bows with and have angels in several designs together with lots of heart shape hanging decorations.

We have so many pretty gifts that will be ideal as Christmas presents, so I am pleased that we will be able to open the shop very soon, just in time for Christmas shopping. Talking things through with Dave, we are sure that the shop will be open by 1st December, but I am hoping that it will be a little before that. If you are planning a visit to our shop before 1st December, please ring me to make sure that we will be around when you hope to come.

Ooh, Dave has just made me a cuppa, so I am off to enjoy it, chat soon, Liz
