simple things in life...

my first bloom of gertrude jekyll by my bedside... heavenly to fall asleep to... heaven to wake to.

to new beginnings...

spring is here and the garden is complete therapy for the soul...
the lilacs are so fragrant...
wish they were in bloom all year!
blessings to you dear friends...xx

missing in action...

that is where i have been... i know we all get bogged down with so many aspects of our lives and that is where i have been... dealing with it all.
so today i can report... something really special happened...
FINALLY a cross country delivery that went perfect. (i have "shipper" stamped on my forehead)

i am happy as things are moving quite well but every time something leaves... i lose sleep chasing it down till the bitter last moment and it is becoming quite exhausting. (one tangent in my brain) + 1,000 others as you all can relate!

so a pair of lovely french deco chairs... left red ticking in seattle and arrived in their new home on the east coast...

and all is well... thank you jaime for being one of the best customers red ticking has ever had!
