The kids left for Greece this morning and it was my job to hug enthusiastically and wave with excitement.  But my heart broke just a little bit.  I’ll see them in a week..but it does feel as though they are going a long, long way away.

 

I was talking to their lovely Teacher yesterday who told me I’d be off to vintage markets and all sorts..and she was right – this time is a gift and I’d be a fool not to use it wisely.  We actually have a vintage event on Saturday so I’m gathering my black coat of mourning and heading off to Stoke Newington to see what delights I can find.  Taking my decorating mags on the train with me…

The idea of our renovation is to replace some of our internal walls with these Crittall windows..mi piace mol to…and now maybe I’ll get a bit further than just collecting pictures…

 

Then tonight  the Husband and I are going to Regents Park Open Air Theatre (one of my absolute favourite summer venues) to be wined and dined and to see Hobson’s Choice..

But I will be looking up at the stars knowing that my two can see them also…

Laters, Kate x
