    I am sparkly, the girls are sparkly, the cat and her feet are sparkly... my bathroom looks like Tinkerbell exploded..

    The colour is Miami mint... I normally hate green but this is so bright and delightful it is lovely and clean looking.. I didn't like it for the first few days but that is probably because it is different and I am a weirdo.. but I really like it.

    I have flung OH's rubbish out of the bathroom and made it look much neater.. I now need dangly things for the wall... I rather want some Hilda Ogden type seagulls.... I know hers were ducks.. but it is a bathroom so I need gulls.

    Fleabay or A-Z.

    OH grew up inbetween the middle of nowhere and a coastal city. He hates the things - calls them Shytehawks. Could always go for the maritime theme of swallows as they were a symbol of always returning home, too?
    I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.

    Dizzy as others have said, lots of hugs and astounded he could say such a thing on today of all days.

    Managed to do a 20min run this morning without coughing, yippee.
    However, had a very long reading to do in church; got through it but have coughed ever since!
    Made roast etc for MIL. Washed up.
    Had a long chat with my brother.
    Now trying to finish a report before getting the tissues out for CTM.
    Remember...a layer of dust protects the wood beneath it.
    It's tough getting rid of the past but it does free up space for the future.
