Corner View 'From where I'm sitting'

Its been a busy morning around here.  The school run.  Then a visit to friends and a walk to a lovely park in the sunshine.  A stop at a little farm to pet the goats, sheep and rabbits on the way.  Collecting Luca from school and home for lunch.

In a short while we are off to another park with trampolines, sand and a very nice cafe for mamas to sit out in the sunshine and relax for 5 mins.  After the park, Luca has a diving lesson, then home for dinner and bath and bed.  Its not always this busy on a Wednesday I can assure you!

So, whilst I'm home for a short time this afternoon, here is my CV contribution this week.

'From where I'm sitting' which is on the sofa right now, with a cup of tea and my MacBook Pro, I can see our lovely fireplace with a vase filled with freesias, blue and grey candles, a very large conch shell found in Florida in the sea, two small polished stones (one with Love engraved), a b/w canvas print of Luca and a big dried star fish.



We also have a water buffalo skull on the wall.  An unexpected purchase when we were out looking for dining chairs!

  2. A wonderful place to be seeing I think!
    (I read the "diving" in the above as "driving" and immediately thought "why would she have to collect someone old enough to drive from school? And take him to such a park?" I re-read and laughed. Oh.)
    :D
    Have a wonderful day.

  6. I mis-read Luca's diving lesson as driving lesson! Love these little glimpses into your life. Love that buffalo's head. My husband would like some stuffed deer heads up but I think that's going a bit far. Love your mantel.
