It's called Midnight Flora and is clearly meant for me as blue is my favourite colour and I love all the little flowerheads and mushrooms and twigs scattered over it.

I am very much a homebody so love pottering around here, with the blue gates closed and the world somewhat distant. I loved the 365 Days list on your blog, many simple and lovely things to look forward to during your year.

He was out in the heat for ages! Didn't seem to affect him too much, whereas I would've melted. I'm sure you'll come to a decision that feels right for you about your purple swimming togs. I have a memory box of things that I should probably go Meghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11573371198907761962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1625835970797307834.post-18845374034887245442017-01-03T19:25:20.388+10:002017-01-03T19:25:20.388+10:00Gorgeous photos Meg.

Why cant this feeling be around all year, wouldn't that be bliss? I love the feeling of contentment.<br /><br />This is my favourite time of year too. It seems to be the only time I have spare time on my hands, when I am not rushed and take things a little more easy.

I have been pondering whether it is time to say goodbye to my purple swimming togs which are over 40 years old and the last gift my father bought me before he died. Perhaps it is time to let go.
