Had to smile as he opened the bag he had brought with him and said "I have something for you mum". Then produced a sweater he wanted mending at the neck and a bath robe he wanted a fastener putting on. Men! Still it was lovely to have him here for lunch and the afternoon.
If you want a smile this week head on over to Annie's blog and see what she and others have been smiling about.
Decided to hang on to a wall plaque I made with Lindsay Mason at a workshop she did for Victoria Stampers until today because the little cute image and the wording makes me smile - hope it does you too.
I brought mine home and mounted it on a larger piece of corrugated card which I had painted and then embellished on the edges with gold ep. I just love it and I don't do cute! Bet a certain little girl, who is coming tomorrow, thinks it is for her - and gets to take it home!
ps: forgot, my son (all 6'5" of him) saw a big man's shirt I had bought to be used as an art cover-all and has now taken it home to try on (it was damp having just been washed). Is nothing sacred?

Smiling on all counts but especially at A pinching your shirt!!!! Can you imagine his mates in the pub saying, "Nice shirt mate" and him replying... "it's me Mum's!!!" Heh, heh

Fab post Neet. I do remember once saying that there was nothing of mine I didn't share and it sounds like your household is just the same :-)

No, nothing is sacred it seems, your family obviously understand well how generous you are! I love your wall plaque, it is so quirky and I love the amazing background you created.
I wish your Son all the very best in his new job. Hugs, Anne x

As a mother of three sons I get the picture!! Love Piffy and I'm sure she will cheer you every day! Chrisx
Oh dear... sorry to hear you lost your crafting overall - doesn't sound as though you'll be seeing that again!
Love your little mushroomy hanging - the image is very appealing, and I love anything that offers me a new phrase to play with, so that's made me smile!

Wonderful wall hanging Neet, love all of it. I'm not going to mention stamp storage.
I wonder if the shirt is going on the new job as well.
