Waiting Waiting Waiting

So, I wanted to start a personal blog, and I was trying out Wordpress, but I'm hopelessy confused by it so it's back to Blogger! Anyway, so the following bit was originally posted on Wednesday morning, the 21 May 2008.

I rushed home this morning after the school run, eagerly awaiting the delivery of our last few boxes from Cape Town.

It is nearly midday now and they’re still not here.

So, I’m bored, frustrated, annoyed and anxious. And speak of the devil, they’ve just rung. Before 2:30pm. That doesn’t sound like “Wednesday Morning”, now does it?

Anyway, so on a happier note, I thought I’d share a picture of my love birds. We recently went back to Cape Town for our dear friends’ wedding celebration. Now Jo is a magpie of note, loving all things sparkly, pretty and birdy, so it came as no surprise to find the wedding theme designed around pretty garden birds.

The invitation featured an original art print by Jo and Alexis, and while having lunch in Kalk Bay, Jo and I discovered these delicate little porcelain birds. I was worried at first about getting them safely home to England, and then displaying them safely once here (with my little terrorist!)

Well, I love how they look on our new floating shelf, which very nearly killed Tristan putting it up, but that’s a whole different story!
