I was feeling a little lethargic this morning, I think it was the blissful sunny weather that makes me want to spend the whole day laying in a field somewhere, picking pictures out of the clouds To motivate myself I made a little to-do list and have been gradually ticking items off it. I had to go to the post office and library so once I had those errands out of the way I bought myself some chocolates and flowers (how romantic *giggles*) The flowers this time are big cheerful daisies! In the language of flowers, Daisies stand for Innocence. We used to make daisy chains from african daisies as children, though they didn’t smell as sweet as these ones.

I made some more jewelry today! A pretty bracelet to match my pearl chains. It has little pink jewels dangling from between the pure white pearls and a big bow made from pink and white polka dot ribbon! I like making bracelets because bought bracelets don’t tend to fit my abnormally small wrists.

Tonight the Prince and I are going to the hills to house-sit for the king and care for his prized hunting dog (who is getting on in years) I am looking forward to being back in the forrest, though it gets very cold up there! I have something special planned for tomorrow too, I just hope the rain holds off long enough! I wonder if any of the early spring flowers have started to bloom

The rain has finally stopped today! Its still a little cloudy but it is nice to be able to go outside once more. I spent the morning relaxing and watched Red Riding Hood which was both charming and amusing. I am quite enamoured of her capelet though! I think I must do a Riding Hood outfit some day. It was made in the late 80’s and has Isabella Rosselini in it, she is so beautiful!

In the afternoon I went to the craft store with Mirai, Clara and Trina. They were looking for some costume materials and I amused myself with pretty ribbons and pearls and jeweled beads. I bought some more pink velvet ribbon, some blue grosgrain, pink grosgrain with white polka dots, and the most adorable ribbon embroidered with little hearts! I also bought some more glass pearls, pink and blue chandelier beads and some gold lockets We spent the evening sewing and in my case making jewelry. I finished another choker and a twin strand pearl chain to attach to skirt waists and collars à la Angelic Pretty. Mirai made us a yummy dinner too.
