HAPPY THANKSGIVING
to all my American friends!
Just a quick post from me today. I meant to show this to you yesterday but I fell asleep editing the photo.
Woke up this morning in bed....and I have no idea how I got there. As a single young woman I was naturally freaked out...I wanted to scream. Then I heard a familiar snore beside me and I realised; I am neither single nor young....and it's his turn to make breakfast. Life is good!
Several hours before that frightening visit form the ghost of Christmas past, I made this card.

That's all from me today. I have a gazillion things to do and my nose is completely blocked! That is especially annoying to me because (on a day like this) I crave the smell of coffee. An allergy or the start of a winter cold...too busy to care, really. I hope you have a great day. Stay warm. Thanks for stopping by.
Beijinhos!
You can single and young in your imagination whenever you want! Love the pop of red with the bird x
