and its still blowing and has been for a few days and I hate,hate ,hate wind.I get anxious and stressy and nervous and messy when the weather is like this.I can handle storms and rain and hail but not wind! Not wind in my hair with the windows in the car down not wind on my skin when the fan blows at night when I am trying to sleep nope dont like wind.A nice breeze yep thats fine but not this.Am I weird? Ok dont answer that! lol
Just take a gander at what it did to my hair! and look at those worry lines lol.
Then it had the audacity to try and blow me over!!
Argghhhh wind!!!!
Anywho
Today is Day 17 of my Blogtober self challenge.and I am going to blather on about random thoughts and things I am doing
Been thinking for awhile how cool it would be to have a Vintage Inspired magazine for Aussies.One that has where you can buy vintage what festivals are on what vintage crafts people are making vintage repurposing vintage reprocutions maybe etc. Like in the UK there is Vintage Life,In the US there is Flea Market Style . Do we have one in Aus I dont know about?I know we have Bespoke but its mainly craft tho very lovely.Id love to have the smarts to get one started wouldnt it be great to be involved in something like that?Anyone out there know how to? Id be happy to be involved.

Loving the first picture Nelly. They aren't worry lines at all, just the wind playing silly buggers! Hope the weather calms for you soon.
I for one love the random posts and will second your comment on filling in loads of forms in order to post, what a faff!

I didn't know about Vintage Life, I will take a look so thanks for the tip.
It's blowing a gale here too, rubbish if like me you wear contact lenses (blows grit in your eyes, ouch!) That 30 seconds I spent brushing my hair this morning was time wasted too...
Keep blathering, we're listening, doesn't matter if you're grouchy!! xxx
Wind ... don't talk to me about terrible weather!*&!*

Ooh the wind makes me crazy too, I hate it. Can't wait to see what sneaky project you've got coming up for us!

Yep, the wind makes me totally irritated too, must be us girls with masses of hair go a little crazy. melx
I hate the wind too - you can protect against most other weather but not the wind. I hate the damage it can do. We have rain and gales forecast for the weekend here.
I have read the help and thought it was brilliant once I got into the dialect. Funny, sad and hert wrenching and I'll never eat chocolate pie again without wincing a little!
Hope everything turns out ok with your family. M x
My mum has a serious fear of windy weather. I hate what it does to my hair, and my poor little boy get's awful eczema on his face with the wind.
Those word verification/captcha code things are really awful, I agree - TURN THEM OFF everyone.
Hee hee, I love the shot of you being almost blown over by the wind. Can't wait to see your upcoming project! Also, I agree about the captcha things - they are one of the main things that stuff up & make me not able to leave comments!
Oh now I know we're kindred spirits Nelly! I DETEST wind! Makes me mean & nasty and (unfortunately) I don't even have an abundance of hair to mess up! Your magazine idea is a great one. I once thought to do the same (different subject) but I got abruptly stopped when I realized it takes $$'s to get stuff started & since I'm a pauper and all my friends are paupers too so I didn't have any potential financial backers, I was stopped at the starting line. BTW - I love your "worry lines" - us mom's earn them even if our kids are perfect (HAH!) & no one should ever stick a needle full of botox in them! How would we wiggle our eyebrows then?!
I'm keeping you & your daughter in my heart & in my thoughts & hope you hear something soon. How many days & nights I struggled with worry about my son - one wrinkle & one gray hair at a time.
Can't wait to see your new project!
Sending you ((HUGS))

I love the wind I don't know why but I do :) Have a lovely day Nelly!
I love the sound of the wind rattling our 250 year old windows but being out in it with long hair drives me daft, too.
Stay cheerful. x
Same here. In here when the wind doesn´t just blow really hard, it howls!
Ah Nelly... you make me smile... but for me I embrace a windy day, I love the feeling of the wind in my face & billowing the fabrics of my clothing... yes, I was one of those kids that always had my head stuck out the window, barely able to catch my breath, as my Dad drove down the Road! *Smiles*
Thanks for stopping by with encouraging words... everyone in the Land Of Blog is always so supportive & caring, this is definitely my Beautiful Escape Place to come to Daily for Inspiration, Creativity and Fellowship with Kindred Spirits!
