World full of Sunshine

Good morning Friends!

I have woken up today to find the rain is pouring down in bucket loads and with a steady wind applied to this, the elements are ensuring that we have our usual November 'sideways rain'. And guess what, I just don't care! Usually I excuse myself from viewing the end of November in the UK and head off to sunnier climes, but this year, I've found the sunshine is somewhere near my heart ~ I think this means that I am truely happy at the moment~ YIPPEE!

Despite having so much to do at the shop to get it ready for opening this time next week, I have left Dave to have a long lay-in this morning. The horrible cold that I have been moaning about this week has made its way to Dave now and he is very definately in that 'my throat is on fire' place. I think a little extra sleep will help him to feel so much better later on in the day. In the meantime, I am catching up with some emails and paperwork and have put something highly intellectual and mind expanding on the gogglebox.

Okay, so Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom is not really mind expanding, but hey! it is Saturday morning and the last one in a while that I will have the luxury of curling up on the sofa with something silly on the telly.

This time next week, we will have opened the shop doors to the public and hopefully I will be busy helping customers with their selections. The little linen bear in the picture has arrived to sit in country linen corner of the shop. He is around 25 cms high and is just £6.00. Isn't he cute?

Well, I'm off now to gently wake Dave (by yelling up the stairs), chat soon, Liz
