After the Big Event last week .. .
you deserve an extended sit and
R E L A X -
Great idea, Vicki!!! I think everyone deserves a good long rest once in a while. <3
I don't blame you one bit...especially after the busy weeks you've had! Enjoy!
I'm about to do exactly the same Vicki sans MOTH, who has decided to work all weekend trying to keep his customers happy. However, we've received a formal invitation from Sons 4&5 for a Roast Dinner at their house tomorrow night. They've only ever done BBQ's which we've had to share with about 40 of their rowdy mates, so MOTH & I are suspicious, oops I mean REALLY looking forward to it! Enjoy the movies.
Millie ^_^
Have a happy one yourself!! xOxO

happy lounging!
Have a lovely summer weekend!
Light some candles, open some windows and eat fresh cold melon with your fingers!
Have a lovely, lovely weekend, darling! x
Not my turn to do that yet. Will have to wait until next weekend. Enjoy yours, you deserve it.

Three of my favorite things to do! Enjoy!

I adore a weekend like this. No real plans~ just relaxing, napping, taking it as it comes. Hope it's delightful.

Sounds like a great plan. I am working all weekend. I need a day off to have a nice movie festival in my living room.
sounds lovely...due to my gimp foot i will be doing a lot of sitting as well. i suppose i can't complain.
Oh, yes, put your feet up and enjoy.
Enjoy your relaxing and movies, Vicki! I am just off to watch an old black and white film now. xx
Yes, I am looking quite forward to doing just that all weekend myself...
Sounds a perfect weekend after all your recent excitements. I'm taking it easy in preparation for our hols in a fortnight.
Enjoy!
I just got your book. Love the whole thing, it literally took me away to france as I was reading it. Very sensual. The padded cover is lovely. As someone who toyed with the idea of planting olive trees in Northern California it thrills me to see that someone actually does these dreams. Great work and happy summer.
Vicki,
I hope your weekend is just that- full of stillness,reflection and pure relaxation. I have had some of this too and catching up on your blog posts assisted me in doing so! merci
Bethenais
Sounds like a good idea to me.
Bon weekend,
Leeann x
Fait un petit dodo. Is that right??? LOL,
Carole
Enjoy. Hope you have a fantastic weekend!

J'adore les chaises dorées, cela me fait penser aux défilés de mode à Paris et aussi aux mariages très chics et à un concert d'orgues fabuleux... Bon week-end.
Translation :
I like the golden chairs, it reminds me in fashion shows in Paris and also in the marriages very chic and in a concert of fabulous organs... Good week-end.
I hope we get to see some of what you watched Vicki...we just had a look at Guys and Dolls!!! Enjoy them all♥x
Hope it was a good one. What did you end up watching? We ended up doing a picnic at an outdoor symphony concert. Absolutely delightful!
Happy Dimanche to you!
Kirsten
I've done a bit of that as well this weekend. Hope yours was lovely!
You're singing my tune, Vicki. Hope you're feeling wonderfully rejuvenated and relaxed. Meredith xo.
