white, white, white & ice - this morning - the harbour is quite suddenly filled with ice
If you're not making mistakes
you're not trying hard enough

Oh Miss Winnie, I am so happy you are healthy and content. Here's to more years of crab dissection and long walks along the shore.
ReplyDeleteBig paws up for Winnie D and tons more long walks...they keep us all young! Tail wags. ~moose
ReplyDelete13! No wonder she looks so dignified. Happy birthday, Winnie!
ReplyDeleteHappy 13th, Winnie!
ReplyDeleteOh good, mistakes are OK. One sometimes feels one does nothing other than make mistakes... so that's gotta be a lot of OK then?
I really like this post and am glad I'm not the only one who appreciates a hot face cloth. Also, three cheers for libraries!
ReplyDeletethanks from Miss D for the birthday wishes ! & yes Amanda 3 big cheers for libraries - now with the digital media lending capabilities + movies, TV series, magazine & books - it's CRAZY not to be a library goer.
ReplyDeletehappy birthday miss winnie d. Susan, how do you cram so much in a day? Once again -wow those E-courses are high dolla - you better have an empire when they get done with you. Thanks for all the links and podcasts///Lord knows i could use a swift kick in the arse.
ReplyDeleteYou like MadMen? Its lovely to look at itsnt it? everybody loved Draper, but Im a roger sterling gal. if you havent started Downton Abbey already i highly recommend it.
add a drop of almond oil to that hot face cloth. aaaaaaahhhhhh
Amen to Chickie, Downton Abby and Cramford.
ReplyDeleteI've just ordered Downtown Abbey from the library - we're so lovin' MadMen - the sets, the furniture, the clothes, the lipstick all that mid century modern visual yumminess - not to mention the drinking, the smoking, the drinking, the misogyny ;-)
ReplyDeleteI actually love January Jone's character & love Joan her full figure, her walk & her big ta-tas
Chickory I saved 65 British pounds by signing up early & paid for it in 3 installments so it didn't seem "that' expensive ... I'm hoping it helps - I'm struggling "big time" with combining the business part of a creative business (which come to find out) most Creative types do struggle with.
Here's a link to an interview with Lisa Congdon .99 cents you must get it - she rocks ! so much good helpful &inspiring stuff in this interview (too long a link I've emailed it to you).
Shammy ... nothing from Ryan :O
NO! january jones' "betty" rivals mommy dearest for icy bitch mom. but yeah, she plays it well. My favorite MM woman was Rachel Menken. the department store heiress. loved her.
