One would think I had had nothing to smile about over the past few weeks as I never posted on here but truth is I have been so busy. We have had a new kitchen done and so were in a pickle with half of my craft room as a kitchen and half of the study as my craft room. In fact the extra table for crafting which is normally in the utility room is still in the study. Complete with my sewing machine on it and some fabric I cut out a couple of weeks ago to make something - trouble is now I cannot remember what it is cut out for!
Anyway, today's smile is because I took some 'proper' sewing down to a lovely lady who I once had the fortune to meet in the flesh. Almost a two hour drive but well worth it to see her and her little daytime companion who had a good chew on my fingers. I am sure she will be telling you about the marathon pile of sewing I took her. Have you guessed who it was yet?
Here's a photo of the two of us with someone else:
and the someone else is ... Milly
She was so excited that we could not get her to sit still but then we all get like that when we know we are going to star in a blogland production don't we. And no, I am not talking about Annie, I mean Milly would not sit still. [sorry Annie :)]
So I had a big smile on my face when I left home this morning for several reasons. The sun came out the further we got from Bolton, the scenery was lovely as we drove down and then when Annie opened her door she had a big smile on her face which made mine even wider than it was.
Then I met this adorable excited little dog called Milly. What a treasure she is.
After tea and cake we set off back for home and had a lovely drive, again in the sunshine - so that was and is my smile for the day because, guess what, I am still smiling - Annie has that effect on you.

That's lovely Neet - yes she is a little treasure isn't she - and I mean Annie!! Though little Millie is cute too. Hope we make it to see you when you come back down.x Jo
It sounds like you had a wonderful day! Lovely photo of the three of you, Milly looks a cute little pickle! Hope your craft room is soon back to normal and you enjoy your new kitchen! xxx
what a great picture! glad you had a lovely time - and I've seen the rail of things Annie will be working on!
Gorgeous photo of all three of you. Hope the back is feeling better. Have a great weekend, Angela xXx
Isn't it lovely when blogland friends meet up. And of course, Annie has told us all about your visit too. I hope the work is soon done and all your rooms gets sorted out. I hate trying to be creative when my room is at sixes and sevens. Kate x
Sounds as though you back must be more comfortable to be able to travel - I hope so. What a wonderful friend to be able to take your sewing to - bit far for me to do that :-)
Blessings

Hello Neet and happy Friday. You certainly do have lots to smile about, it's lovely to meet up with friends, so glad you enjoyed your little outing and got to meet Milly too. Have a wonderful weekend Cheers Robyn
You are in so much trouble. I can't believe you came down this far and didn't let us know. You could have stayed here and saved yourself the trip all in one day. I hope you have a good excuse!!!!!!!!!!!
You sure made me smile showing up and leaving me a comment on my blog, haven't seen you around in ages! You look great! That Millie is a cutie patootie too!
