When you make a conscious choice to be happy, no one can take it away from you because no one gave it to you: you gave it to yourself.

WOYWW 269 - keep going till the end to see me in a dress!

Morning!

Well today the desk dashers meet over at The Stamping Ground to catch up with Julia before nosing their way around the world to see desks/spaces/floors. You name it. It's where we work/play/create. Friends are made and inspiration strikes. It's why I love it!

So mine - 
Across the room shot.

Pens and Paris. I was bought this Paris album so dug out my photos from my trip there to put into it. It has a little note section next to each photo so I can write. Perfect!

Sun streaming in, too bright to pull up the blind yet.

My new purchase. Couldn't resist this little beauty £20 from local vintage shop. And it works!

Now as promised - the posh dressed bit. We went to my friend's wedding this weekend just gone, we made it our holiday and stayed Fri-Sun. Only 45 mins away but being by the sea and eating fish and chips made it real.

Keagan looking so grown up it's scary!

Me and Rosie, the beautiful bride, you can see the lake behind. Such a perfect location.

Me and my boy. Me in a dress. Yep I can do lady-like sometimes.

Okay that's me, coffee now then I will be back later and I'm determined to visit as many of you as possible.
Take care Zo xx

So nice to have the sun and a shame you had to keep the blind down.

Love the typewriter. I learn to type on an old manual.

You look so pretty in your dress.

Thanks for stopping by my blog earlier.

Great photos of you and your boy all dressed up. Love your desk today. Things are looking tidy and raring to go. Great vintage find! I'm not surprised that the typewriter still works. Back in those days they built things to last! Judy #76

Well, Zoe - where do I start. So many lovely photos to look at. You and your grown up son look just great all poshed up. Glad you had such a lovely trip - and to make it feel a real holiday. Well done. Lovely album there - just perfect for your snaps. My parents had a typewriter just like that for years. Wonder what happened to it when the house was emptied?? Gorgeous colouring on that card front.
Take care. God bless.
