Style not Age do Full Skirts.

Good morning everyone. 
Hope you are well. 

Hands up who’s put their tree up? I’ll go first … 🙌 yep I put mine up with the help of Max who put the baubles on, yes I re-arranged them when he went to bed! It looks beautiful with so many pretty decorative ornaments over it, on nearly every branch! I try to pick one or two up when I’ve been away for special weekends or out for days near Christmas. I bought three on a trip to Scotland a few years ago and two on my long weekend to Baden Baden with David and our four good friends. It’s nice to come home with little keepsakes, they make lovely memories and it’s nice to recall buying them. 

Back to Friday. I went to a friends for a girly evening with some other friends was to celebrate her birthday and we dined on chillie, followed by cheese and biscuits and a couple of glasses of fizz.  It was nice to chat and catch up along with marvel at her stunning new house that over looks the sea. It was an early night, so no sore head the next morning. That was a good idea for me as I went to paint the last bit of my daughter’s house. Carpets are being finished off in the next few days and the kitchen is being installed today! The move back home is getting ever nearer, but I’m hoping they’ll still be here for Christmas - fingers crossed for that. 🤞

So today is the last Monday, and it’s my turn to choose the prompt. I saw that voluminous skirts were hitting the headlines so opted for the title …

Full Skirts.

October Review.

Morning everyone.
So pleased you could join me.

How have you been?  A busy few weeks for me with the baby's arrival growing ever closer!  The house is full with baby clothes and all the extras they need and I'm getting rather excited to say the least.  I'm wondering how Max is going to take the new baby.  He has his moments, but on the whole he's very good with me, David and the rest of the family, so I'm sure it wont be too hard for him when she goes off to hospital, well that's unless she takes after her sister, my eldest daughter, she popped our first grandchild out at home and didn't have time to get to the hospital!  So yes as they say anything can happen!

Another month has rolled by and don't they seem to be getting faster?  It'll be Christmas before we know it and we'll be enjoying all the delights that brings.  I've vowed to get presents done early (I know I say that every year) but I want to enjoy getting them and not having it to be a chore.  

So without further ado let's look back on my outfits for October for the ....

October Review.


My first post featured a bit about Porto & Life insurance, you can read all about my exciting trip here and marvel at the photos of the special place David and I celebrated our 60th birthdays - albeit a tad late!
