Hello my lovelies....how you doin'?
Well it's been a whole week since I last came to sit in my scruffy little cosy Attic space to chat a while with you all, and honestly, I've missed it.
You may (or may not) have perhaps noticed that my blogging voice has been struggling a little of late, that there has not been the usual, regular blurb of words streaming from the Attic Monday-to-Friday. In fact, it has been down right Erratic in the Attic recently hasn't it? Yes, Attic24 has become Erratic24. Deary me, it has certainly not been intentional.
All I can tell you is that my personal life has been extremely topsy-turvy during this past month or so. I have tried hard to retain my Rosy Outlook, to blog when I've been able, but it has not been easy. Please don't feel sorry for me, I am OK now I promise, and I do believe the worst is hopefully behind me now.
And oh I have missed you all! I've hardly been visiting with anyone at all in Blogland, just bobbing in here and there when I've been in the mood. But like I say, I feel in my heart that I am back on the up again and yaaaayyyyyy I am So Glad!!
My fresh flowers for this week are these utterly delectable bright pink Roses. I am quite smitten with them, especially as they have a beautiful, subtle rosy scent which is unusual for shop bought roses I find. I am suffering with hayfever at the moment too, but it doesn't stop me sticking my entire face right into this bunch and sniffing and snorting that irresistible scent. And then sneezing aaaaChoOoOoOoOOooo.
I have a couple stems in the bathroom as well (which is STILL NOT FINISHED) and that pink colour looks absolutely delicious in there. Really yummy.
Well I've got oooodles of sewing to do this week, but have some lovely things to share with you too....so all being well, I shall make time to pop in and chat tomorrow. In fact, yes, I just remembered, I have something new and hooky to share with you tomorrow....so see you then....
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Lovely flowers! Wish I can also arrange beautiful flowers like that. I want to learn how to arrange flowers cause it so interesting. Anyway, I enjoyed reading this post. Thanks for sharing!

wow... i feel that you are a kindred spirit! i too have my fair share of emotional ups and downs and totally feel no desire to blog at all! everyone thinks i have fallen off the face of the earth until suddenly i jump back into blogland and announce that all is well...
i love that you have a degree in art as do i... you inspire me with all of your color! it has taken me sometime to gather my artsy self together after having my last little one... but i am jumping back in with both feet lately... you can see my latest creations at 123littlebirds.etsy.com!

You need to walk along the valley road occasionally to appreciate the view from the top of the hill. No?
Take care.

Do hope that life is treating you kindly again. The roses are soooooo beautiful (probably worth the sneezing?) and I hope that you will be as 'rosy' very soon. Take care of yourself x

I admire your honesty - it's so easy sometimes to turn into a pastiche of our blog personalities
