fun post

(fond sigh, my favorite labs) |
yesterday afternoon a large package addressed to me arrived in my absence (I was in the office all day) delivered by the post (wo)man on our doormat; our youngest son was at home during that period and paid no attention whatsoever to the sound of the frontdoor being opened and closed: he assumed it was his older brother returning home! My husband found the package on his entrance and handed it over to me as soon as I got home. A parcel from the inimitable Julie (I wholly recommend paying her blog a visit for many reasons, one of them being her incredibly amusing story telling) a parcel full of goodies: the India Flint eco dye book and another one on how to go about harvesting the dye ingredients, colourful fabrics, many kind words, the postcard above by Stephen Huneck

and because it is a fun post I add these pics: last Sunday I was in den Bosch with my mum and sister, where we visited the Stedelijk Museum and I noticed these rings: not very practical to wear but a lot of fun! |

and on our way back to the train station we saw these in a shop window: hey wouldn't it be fun to make these with a bunch of kids in a workshop?! I especially like the mohawk hairdo in the middle |

Julie, my business sense is non-existent, but we could of course give it a go, as these beans will surely sell themselves.....haha
and yes, I do feel as if the grief (at least the most constant painful part of it) has become 'lighter' although I do experience pangs of sorrow at unexpected moments (sometimes all someone has to do is mention the words 'dog and play' and I'm off again)
