Daffodils - it must be Spring!




1st September in my neck of the woods
heralds the start of


SPRING

The fruit trees are clothed in glorious blossom
deciduous trees are bursting into leaf
spring bulbs are in bloom
Spring is an awakening
a sign of new life
and new beginnings




After the grey and dreary months of Winter
we welcome the arrival of this new season!





We have turned the corner...
and I am happy to say
"au revoir August" 
until we meet again next year...
God willing!





Wishing you all a happy weekend

I'm joining Trishie for Floral Friday
Nick for Floral Friday Fotos
and
Liz for Fresh Cut Friday


Take care and
be kind to one another

Merci à bientôt

Fragrant Winter Stocks



Chilly grey skies call for adding some beauty
inside the house.


So I popped in to my local flower shop
and selected these stocks
they were a little pricey
but as all the well priced daffs and tulips had gone
I decided to spoil myself!







Winter stocks have the most wonderful
perfume too
it is a treat just walking into the living room!



I'm joining Liz for Fresh Cut Friday August
and


Enjoy your weekend everyone
Take care and
be kind to one another.

Take care and
be kind to one another.

Merci à bientôt

Fresh Cut Friday April


I survived!!!
After five weeks of waking at 5:30am
then into the shower by six and downstairs
dressed, coiffed strange word I know, funny words pop into the heads of working gals!
and made up by 6:30,
 a plate of porridge and a quick look at your latest posts
by 7am I was out the door, in the car
and on my way to work!
Yikes how did I do it?!!!!!
I'm usually so slow and disorganised
in the mornings - if I can do it anyone can!



I can tell you
it was tiring
we had some pretty average dinners
the house is a mess
but it was fun and I saved some dosh!
No prizes for guessing where I'll be going -
gosh you're a perceptive clever bunch of friends
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I've saved my fare for France
and I'm thinking
I would love to wake up on Christmas morning
with three of my most favorite girls
jumping into bed with me for cuddles!




Today I'm joining Liz for her party

why don't you grab a bunch of flowers and
come and join us.


I'm also joining Carolyn for
Floral Friday


This is my favorite rose
General Gallieni
she's an old fashioned tea rose that I have shown
you a few times before.
Where I live she flowers for eight months of the year
from early Spring through until late Autumn.
One can't ask more than that from a rose!



I want to thank you all for being such wonderful
blogging buddies, cheering me on and
giving me so much encouragement
while I did my full time stint.
Next week I'll be back to two days a week
easy peasy!!


Please pop over to Susan's blog
Mary Janes's Tearoom
to enter her beautiful Spring Giveaway.
I've just joined her inspiring blog where
she makes creates and makes beautiful knitted
mice, bears, rabbits to name a few.
I know many of my bloggy friends
will want to add this blog to your blog lists too!
 Who could possibly resist Miss Lola Blue!


Wishing you all an enjoyable weekend
doing whatever makes you happy!

 Take care and be kind to each other
   merci à bientôt

Shane
