Open all hours!

Friends have been to lunch for a long overdue catch up!
And they bought me flowers and you know how much I love to be brought flowers!
These luscious lilies finally opened today and there are 9 buds still to come! The scent is intoxicating.
Oh and I've been playing with buttons! Mainly I have been playing with lovely colourful plastic buttons because, lucky lucky me, my new friend came to my rescue and sorted all the tricksy techie stuff which had me beat so that I could have fun with the pretties!!
I have wanted for some time to gain an extra column over there on the right...and to put something pretty in the background for you.
You know what it's like? I go to the html and there's just a sea of incomprehension. I think of this when I am reading with the beautiful boy. Is that how big words look to him?
So, a HUGE thank-you Craig! I am tickled pink with my new playground and I am still having fun decorating!
Oh and I've been busy with my new little shop too! It is finally open for business and it would be lovely if you wanted to pop in for a browse!
Do let me know if you find any hiccups! I can't test for a PC at home and I have done a bit of website re-decorating and Flickr organising too so it's been busy busy here and I might have missed a few things... You will tell me won't you?!
And if you too would like to have an extra column, or to add your very own pretty background then I can vouch for Craig who has the patience of a saint! You can contact him by email;

I have exciting things lined up for the rest of this week; lots of creative busyness, lunch with mums tomorrow (mine and Niki's!) and cake for breakfast with Mrs Bobo Bun! I'm being spoiled! Back soon! t.xxx
P.S. I'm still not sure that I would say that I have seen 'The Sound of Music' .... but I have seen a version which was quite unforgettable! There is something inherently funny about a school made up mainly of boys, performing a play in which the parts are mainly female - many of them Nuns! We had a rip-roaring time! The mountain goat was especially wonderful .... who me? Biased? Never!!
