things i miss...

it is sooo lovely being back home and seeing my family here in orange county, but after almost three decades living in london, england there are sooo many things i miss when i'm here! things like...
a cafe on every corner
being able to get a nice meal with a lovely bottle of wine after 10pm
walking everywhere

and then there are two things that i'm really really missing - so much i'm not sure which i'm missing more
my husbandboy AND my stash of yarn

the blondeboy had to stay behind as he's double booked on plasterwork. he's finishing a new bulgari hotel in knightsbridge as well as starting a new project on fleet street.  and my yarn stash, well hey i decided to travel uber-light and reckoned that i could just pick up whatever i needed here...i've just not had a chance.

its so horrid not being able to just cuddle up on the sofa with blondeman and whatever colour yarn i need and hook away!

guess i'll just have to talk to my family, lol...xxx

help save a dog. please.

this is a pretty serious post (for me).

about one abandoned dog an hour is put down in england.

last night while watching the elections here, rather than work on some blue, gold, or red as other's were doing - i decided to create an 'angel lead' out of sparkly acrylic baby boucle yarn. i wanted it to be more of a joyful memorial than the sad reminders of the ghost leads project (based on ghost bikes)

i'm thanking you in advance....x

i don't really think i'm asking alot considering all the tits and smut you usually get from me!
