lighter


New season, fresh start.

I'm feeling a bit better today. There's always light beyond the clouds.

...but you know something's really wrong when I say "sorting out clean laundry is just about as good a therapy as you'll get".

Ummmmmmmmmmmm... what was I thinking??!?

Retail therapy is just about as good a therapy as you can get! So I went a little crazy buying prints and stationery at seventy tree. I'll brag more about my loot when the postie delivers!

* photos taken last week at the beach while the three of us ate fish and chips under an iridescent sky.

Beautiful photos. We've been having some magnificent sunsets here in Brisbane too. Can't wait to see your print and stationery loot.

Love your blog by the way (stumbled here via A Baby Called Max).

Pink skies and shopping at Seventy tree ... sounds pretty wonderful to me!

Joanna said...

That's funny. I was almost going to comment about that on your last post... I can think of a few better therapy options! Retail being one of them. Beach fish and chips another! Glad you've indulged yourself and are feeling better. xx

Wow, those pink hues just draw you in. Lovely shots, and glad you're feeling lighter.

So pleased to hear you're feeling more upbeat, retail therapy is far and away the nicest, most indulgent form of therapy xo

Great to hear you're feeling better Claire. Ha I was going to mention retail therapy always makes me feel better but I thought the haircut sounded less taxing on the bank account. Have a lovely weekend Claire. xx
