etsy success

Found  this on Penny's blog. Amazing isn't it? Makes me a bit proud to be part of it all.

little old man baby

Millipede is 17 months old, but sometimes I swear he is actually 78... YEARS that is!

Mostly he spends his days pottering around the garden with the watering can, but let me set the scene I came across yesterday...

(He has had a cold, so his voice is croaky and hoarse.)

I'm occupied tidying up some mess, he is playing in the loungeroom.
Then I hear the TV come on. I poke my head around the corner to check, and find...

Him sitting on the couch snuggled up next to our cat, he has pulled the slanket up over his lap, is patting the cat with one hand, has a book in the other (with TV remote nearby), and is entranced watching the early edition news on TV, "ahh-ing" and "hmmm-ing" in response with his croaky hoarse voice.

Such a little old man!

We laughed about it being the early edition news, giving him time to have dinner and get to bed before 7pm, just like real old men ;)  Perhaps if I get him a car cleaning kit he can have our car sparkling and immaculate, up to "senior citizen vehicle" standards in no time!

Please no Benjamin Button comments. It doesn't mater how hot you think Brad Pitt may be, the fact is it's just creepy.

Some of you may remember the wooden watch I gave Mr You for our anniversary last year. Well this year we clocked up 16 years together.


Traditionally anniversaries carry a theme; cotton, silver, diamond, etc… I'm not sure if the 16th anniversary has a theme, but this year I made one up all the same; "Game of Thrones"  - whooot!!! (a-hem, exposing our nerdiness a little here -blush). 


So last month I popped onto Etsy and got these for my tall good-lookin' man:

For those of you as addicted to the show as us, I know you're dying to know where I found these... Direwolves hoodie from Fencing N Archery and the cute Stark card from Sophie Blackhall Cain. 

He loved them both!

flossy-p on facebook

Those of you who know me may have just spat coffee in shock. But it's true! I'm finally on facebook.

Come see for yourself : flossy-p on Facebook.

I was always a bit concerned that if I started a Facebook I'd have too many places online to keep updated. So we'll see, but the plan is for facebook to be about updates of products in my shop, and projects I'm working on... my portfolio site will still be a gallery of my work and what's happening in my work life... and this blog is more becoming a place where I talk about personal stuff.

If you have any tips or suggestions on keeping multiple web-spots updated and interesting, I'd love to hear them. In the meantime check out my facebook page, "thumbs-up" me if you please, and let me know your thoughts.  :)
