simple - cont'd

'don't pin much hope on the mail,
and when the phone rings don't expect anyone wonderful to be calling.'

oh, andy - you obviously never met anyone through etsy!!


i practically skip to the mail - that should have been on my simple things list... dear mellisa from chinook jewelry sent me a business card holder, a ponytail holder, and some gorgeous lotus tiles... you had to see these... she has more - and if i don't snag them all, you may be able to get yourselves some!!



and i also found a lovely woman named lashell on etsy at who hand dyes sari silk in gorgeous colors... do you know how hard it was not to buy more?! almost painful... her mother taught her how to do it...

  2. I agree...waiting for the mailman is an adventure nowadays! Not always the dreaded bills...but frequently something wondrously wonderful.

  7. The lotus tiles are sweet, At the postoffice they call me the box lady, as I spend so much time sending and receiving . Little do they know the fun of discovering, and Poor Andy what a sad life to only know his version of life, with out hope, life is not worth living. xx
