No Doom but a little bit of Gloom.

Have you ever wondered
how the sky sees things when it is
looking down on us?

Yeah probably not, 
just me then?

Yesterday was slightly gloomy and the sky in all it's gloom got to cop a look at these flowers in my garden.  

Bet the sky felt less gloomy.

When the flowers looked up tho'....

...they saw that gloomy sky looking down on them, but they weren't worried, they just kept on being all bright and cheerful. 

Go the flowers!!


So I double flipped the gloomy sky
on behalf of the flowers.
Yeah!!
Take that gloomy sky!

The girls were waiting for me when I got home from work yesterday.  When I fed them I found that Oprah had laid a little egg, all efforts are appreciated and she was making a song and a dance out of plopping out her little egg. How lovely do the eggs look on Autumn leaves?

It rained last night and it was still raining this morning,
more gloom you could say.

Well then,
there was only one thing to bust another
GLOOMY DAY.

*'*'*A SUESDAY*'*'*


I wore big bright flowers.
 
Me and Sue W stopped in at all our favourite shops and had a second visit to the new huge Hospice store.  I quite like this shop, beautifully set up and almost more like an antique/second hand dealer type of shop  I remember from years back. Back when there was plenty of excellent second hand shops full of reasonably priced things. Pretty sure this will make it on to our permanent list of places to pop in to.
 
We had a divine lunch at the lovely cafe called Lola in between our shopping.  Thanks Sue, it was very, very nice of you to take me out for lunch.
 
The absolutely fabulously bright crocheted blanket is brand new and only $15, so of course that came home with me.  Like wise the three necklaces ranging in price from $2.50 - $4.

Inside this gorgeous big needlepoint bag was the small bag and the purse, like a Russian doll, all for $10.

But my best buy had to be this china PIG that is the same size as my Oscar for $8.  Sue did say make sure you keep it away from Sheba.  Within minutes of it being bought inside Sheba who was in Turbo speed to get out the door bowled over the pig and broke both right legs. FAAAARK!! Biatch dog, Bert is going to have to live in a safe spot.  Luckily I had some Super Glue and all is well with Bert, named after Sue Ws pig Bert that she used to have.
 

With Mothers Day being a happening thing in our part of the world this weekend there are all sorts of special deals on in the shops.  While we were in Bunnings (man store) so Sue could get some wall paper paste I came across this pot and found a plant to go in it.  Tis destined for the reception counter at work. 
*'*'*Have a fabulous weekend*'*'*

The loose hair works so well with those bold bright red flowers under that bold bright red topper!

I'm also admiring the dainty details of the starburst pendant -- and the (Gerbera?) flowers in the first photo. What a nice pot you've found for the reception desk! You're wise to provide beauty for your eyes at work, Sue. I used to tape up pretty postcards to study while listening to complaints on the phone. Real flowers are much nicer!

Fabulous big bold flowers, op shopping with a pal, fresh eggs, a crochet blanket, great jewellery and a pretty vintage bag - nothing gloomy about any of that!
Perhaps Sheba was jealous of Bert? Keep them apart!
Have a great weekend, Sue! xxx
