The Gold Coast just wasn't itself today.  Rather than the usual warmth of the winter sun beating through the verticals, it was dark, miserable and cold.  A perfect day to sleep in and stay warm, read a book, have a long bath, and watch a movie, IF I didn't have little people that needed me.  Instead I visited a friend and left a bigger version of myself after consuming alot of her delicious choc chip cookies.  I spent some of the afternoon sewing and finishing projects.  I finished a quilt, and made an old dress into a skirt and continued 'trying' to crotchet.  At the moment i'm starting to crotchet a scarf, but by the time I finish it, the Gold Coast will be back to its summery self.  I'll keep trying.

Thank you. You know who you are. Thank you for having me over on your gorgeous deck and new furniture while watching our children play. You made my week seem not so overwhelming and brought me back down to earth. While our childrens friendship grows, so does ours. Like you said in your blog, I really don't know what I did without friendships like the one we have.
