Never ever assume anything

My day started at about 5am today and all was going well until I got a phone call from my dad. He recently asked me to buy a gift for my mother, a 1/2 carat diamond pendant which I assumed was a Christmas gift. I took a trip to the jeweller I use when I need something and organised to have it made.
Well, one should never just assume anything. My Dad phoned me today to find out how it was coming on and I assured him it was all under control. So then he asks if I would be going to their home today.
No, I said, why would I be coming to your place today? I asked.
Dad replies, It's 13th tomorrow and then I realised why he had been so anxious. It's not for Christmas it's for their wedding anniversary tomorrow.
Geez, what does someone do in this situation I ask you?
Beg of course! A quick phone call to the jeweller and some real fast talking.
I picked it up at 3.30pm and delivered it at 4.30pm to a very happy Dad. Any other year would not have been a problem but this will most likely be the last anniversary he will celebrate with my mum.
I forgot to take a photo of it but it is very beautiful.




Last Friday I catered for the local business womens lunch on my verandah. We all had a great day.

Not a patchworker amoung them. Looks like I have some work to do to convert them. Hmmmm!

Tomorrow I plan to clean up my office and studio. That will be no mean feat. It is in a bit of a state.
I will let you know how I get on.
