A totally delish day!

Today was just as beautifully warm as yesterday but there was at least a nice breeze in the air so the wax was hotter than I was today *grin*

God I want a holiday!! I was thinking about it today while I was stood there packing up votives! I never ever have T-I-M-E for me ... and just for me. Where would I go? What would I do? One thing I do know is that I'd love to go just completely by myself! Somewhere hot ... somewhere with blue skies, no clouds and a beach.

Bliss!

Nice thoughts especially after a long drive around the M25 this evening! I went up to visit my sister and brother in law in London ... it was only a quick visit as they are off to New York tomorrow morning (their wedding anniversary) and then they move house two days after they get back from their trip! It was good to see her and spend some time with them both.

I did find my mind drifting while I drove home especially ... thinking about getting away from it all... maybe even just a couple of nights in a spa would do me the world of good!! Maybe that's what I should buy myself for my birthday this year :-)

Busy but totally fabulous!!!

I have had a GREAT day today!! This morning was spent finishing off (as much as we could!) of the surprise ... and ohhh, it turned out so much better than any of us thought! I can't WAIT to hear how the surprise goes! I just wish I could be there like a fly on the wall!!

I think the best bit for me was spending time with my sister. She and I have had quite a "difficult" relationship in the past, but we've been working on it and building a new relationship. The past couple of days we've really found a new kinship too and it's been wonderful!! She and her hub are moving closer in a few weeks and it will be really great to see her more often.

Aaaaanyway I still have like eleventy hundred things to do before I go to bed this evening .... so I'll keep this short and sweet! Mad Monday tomorrow and I will NEED my beauty sleep for that!!

A bloody fantastic day!!!

Today has been CRAZY and BUSY and I am totally exhausted! LOL It was WELL worth it though! I spent the day helping a special someone create a special something for another special someone!!! I can't say ANY more than that as I know at least one of those someones occasionally stops by my blog ... and if the other someone gets wind of what we've been up to ... well the special something won't be as much of a surprise!!!

I know ... that's totally beyond cryptic to anyone other than me and the two other people involved in creating this surprise ... but I promise there is photos and I will be able to reveal all in about oooh 3 weeks!! My lips are sealed and until the secret is revealled to the other person ... then I can't say a word!!!

GOSH it's so exciting!!! I LOVE being involved in other people's secrets!!!

All I can say is that I have had an absolutely BRILLIANT day and it's renewed my "mojo" I feel passionate, creative and - ack, just happy! It's been a great day!!
