Today we spotted this notice on the entrance to a shop. Though the Grumpy Shopkeeper might think she is the only shopkeeper of such disposition, I thought she might like to know that she has some way to go to match this one!

A record of my journey towards "An elegant sufficiency, content, retirement, rural quiet, friendship, books, ease and alternate labour, useful life" Not there yet. Some way to go!
I knit, I sew, I embroider, I paint and draw and occasionally keep a journal. I do funny things with paper, paint and glue, I make books and other stuff. Not much of this is of any use (with the possible exception of the socks I knit) but I find fun in everything I do. I love colour, texture, pattern and want to do it all perfectly - preferably in the next five minutes. When I'm not making stuff myself, I'm teaching someone else how to do it (or teaching someone else to teach someone else to do it)

we are the same here in Sweden. Perfume is frowned upon because of allergies! For teachers it is definitely a No-no!
sounds like you are having a good time!

Yeah! Way to go Norton House! How sensible. I often have to hold my breath in the lift where I live (not that I live in a lift all the time) becuase of my neighbour's excessive use of the old Este Lauder.

Reminds me of one of my sons fondness of aftershave at one stage. How do you tell a young man he is wearing too much to atract girls without upsetting him?
