Yes, the truth and it ain’t that pretty! I am in home hell....everywhere is in chaos! Bertie’s 2nd Birthday (thanks for your lovely messages), family staying, me ending up feeling ill and also receiving almost 40 orders in just one day (along with general orders the rest of the week....which is amazing, but that’s a lot for little me!) I might be absent for a short time whilst I try and deal with this calamity! I’m sure it’ll calm down soon.
Lots of love and I hope you’ll all come back soon :)

The Truth....
30/01/2012
Hope you get better soon, and get things sorted out, too!
ReplyDeleteThough I have to admit that these kinds of "truth" pictures are some of my favorite 'home decoration' pieces in blogs, because they're... well, the truth! :)
I love it... I think we all live like this don't we? I sure do... (just nearly broke my leg slipping over on a discarded book). Congratulations on all your orders - can I get in the queue for when you need a order-packing assistant!?
ReplyDeleteOh my, that's sounds like serious chaos to me! Take your rime in getting well & good luck on shipping out those orders!
ReplyDeleteAnd sorry Bertie...: Happy birthday to you!!!
xoxox
oh - and at least your hoover makes it out of the cupboard!
ReplyDeleteOh dear! I must admit it looks kinda crazy there. Ho hum, shove it under the rug and behind the sofa. 40 orders! WOW well done you. In my dreams! Hope you feeling better. I too am in home hell... poorly sick boys home hell. x
ReplyDeleteI am a little behind on all these celebrations. So a belated congratulations on your anniversary, on Bertie and on all the orders on etsy. Well deserved Kerry!

ReplyDeleteWow 40 orders - well done! I wouldn't worry about the mess too much, just one little job at a time - you'll get there : )
ReplyDelete40 orders! get you! i'm sure you'll get things back to normal soon, hang in there! if it's any consolation, my place looks exactly like that, only i don't have any children to blame it on!

of course we'll come back soon! I know what you mean about house chais - we're changing all the rooms around at the moments and there's piles of 'stuff' lying all over the house. I hate it.
ReplyDeleteAs for your orders....I'm planning on purchasing soon. A bear. For Che. Look forward to doing business with you (when the budget allows!) x
La vérité est belle et vivante !

XOOO
p.s. Belated happy birthday to Bertile!
Thanks for being bold enough to share those pics. As a parent to a child a little younger than Bertie I completely resonate. I long for my picture perfect home, fact is it takes A LOT of effort for those few moments of tranquility before it all starts over. Hope you feel better soon and that you fulfill all those orders!
ReplyDeleteGood to see I'm not the only one with a messy home :-) We can always blame it on the kids right!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your orders...that must feel great. I was going to do one too, but I'll let the storm pass for you first...
I love visiting here...even your mess looks colorful and gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteThanks for documenting the mess and the pretty, because that's life right?! xx
Oh thank you!!!!! Homes shown like they are, we all like the pretty pics of peoples homes but lets face it you can't really be creative without making a mess. And mix kids at home into the situation and you have crazy but happy home!
ReplyDeleteLove your blog and things! We posted your wonderful and happy poster http://dotty-love.blogspot.com/2012/01/good-times.html
