A Sweet MOTH

With work being totally responsible for me now actually having lost the will to live (MOTH reckons trying to deal with this particular group of clients is akin to herding cats!) & a major family issue that needed me to hang the Dr. Millie Family Therapist shingle out urgently, it's been a tough, tough, tough, tough week. I'll share the family thing with you when I can get my head around it & I've lowered the level in the vodka bottle a bit more. MOTH's been his normal 'Deal it with it & move on Mills' self, but this morning he rendered me speechless.

'Hey Mills, I noticed Balhannah By Design have got a VIP shoppers night on tonight. They had a new container of stuff from France arrrive last week & one from Belgium on Monday. Mon's had to hire out the Balhannah Village Hall temporarily to fit everything in. If youse like, I can come home from work early & we can go up there together. They've got free grog, free gift wrapping & 10% off everything. Would that cheer youse up?'

Would it ever babe, fire up the Millie-mobile & let's go! Oh & if you or the girls are reading this Mon, for goodness sake if MOTH offers to man the gift wrapping table & gives you a story about his prowess in that Department - DON'T LET HIM!!!

  4. Glad there is a spot of "loveliness" for you tonight Millie, sorry to hear of difficult times though. Look forward to hearing more about the little shopping spree. I'm off to a girls night "Christmas bubbles Jewellery party" - just the medicine after a day filled with cleaning house for "Open Inspection appointments.

  5. What a wonderful, thoughtful MOTH. He deserves his own bottle of vodka. Good luck with the troublesome trouble.

  6. Sounds like a great way to forget your troubles Mill's.......and make sure that you take good advantage of the free grog !!
    Mr Home does feel that your rather negative comment on MOTH's gift wrapping skills was a little harsh. He is waiting for MOTH'S annual post on gift wrapping !!!!
    Keep smiling Mill's XXXX

  8. Catching up on bloggy posts Millie and am sad to hear of troubles at the hedge and work.
    Life has a funny knack of constantly throwing curve balls our way.
    Thank goodness for certain beverages!
