I hope you’ve had a great week…
I’ve had a couple of ‘light bulb’ moments which I need to plan and put into place. And I’ve also been enjoying the beautiful seasonal flowers around at the moment, like these pastel stocks above.
Here’s what I’ve been up to over the last seven days…
Out & about
Last weekend, my mum came to stay and on Sunday, we went to our nephew’s christening. I was delighted to become his godmother…and he’s such a cutie!
Afterwards, we all went back to my brother’s house and had a really lovely afternoon…
Highlights from the rest of the week include:
- Meeting up with fabulous bloggers, including the Heart Home magazine team, at the dbcollective evening
- Receiving some beautiful flowers from That Flower Shop.
- Visiting a local art gallery (which I’ll blog about soon).
- Flowerona being mentioned in a MyDeco blog post.
- Meeting up with some local business ladies, as one of them is moving away from the area. So lovely to see everyone and hear their news. And I was really touched about how supportive and encouraging they were about Flowerona.
At home
Reading…Red magazine and Waitrose weekend newspaper.
Listening to…B’day by Beyonce, Gotta Get Thru This by Daniel Bedingfield and Heart FM.
