Easter vintage

  

It's so pleasent to see those old, vintage Easter cards, many from the beginning of the 20th century.

They are so feminine and delicate and others are just so funny.

Look at all these delightful cards. Enjoy.

  

 

 

 

Such peace.

Restart

I read at the Afternoon Coffe and Evening Tea a sentence that I agree the most and that I will remember as it is so inspiring:

The beginning is always today

That reminds me what Flylady says:

What's wrong with now?

and

Jump in where you are

Those two last sentences have been helping me for ages and now I will add the first one that says that the beginning is today. Always.

Truly we need to not beat ourselves each time we fall off the wagon because, as Flylady says, there is no wagon, you just jump in where you are.

And I keep doing that, jumping in. Restarting.

Maybe someone who reads this is thinking about times that it happened to her. Maybe it happens often. Never mind, never give up on you. Get up, trust, life is not a reaching point, it's a way of traveling, sometimes we are better, sometimes not so good but after each fall, rise up.

As for me I'm having the intention of getting better in many things and I will do what I can to be like that, even if some days are not so sucessful, there are other that are better.

And one of the things that I want to do is to take Flylady more serious again, even if I do it my way.

Her teachings are not the Sacred Scriptures, we can disagree in some things and want to do differently, but in the whole, it's a good system that I discovered in 2001.

So, what are you waiting for? Just start.

I am a resistant

I'm not a person inclined to trends, to fashion, on my clothes and the house - and mentality!

I am a resistant. 

I never try to please or I am afraid to displease. Reading this you may think I am a difficult person, intransigent and unpleasent. Well, I will tell you that it depends on the tastes of the people around me and I know some like me.

I am classic, conservative and I follow my lead, my tastes and I look for and get together, in person or online, with likeminded people.

In that note I will say that I never care about what is the trend in anything, so I dress in a classical way, with some clothes that could have been worn in the fourties and fifties and the begining of the sixties.

 

                   

    

Pensil skirts, pleated or softly circled. Sweters, pullovers, cardigans with round or v-necks. With scarves. Or blouses inside. Never trousers, only inside the home when it's cold. Reasonable lent shorts when it's hot. But never outside.

If it's not summer I wear tights, always, transparent or opaque.

My shoes are like these:

  

never pointed, never square, always round, black, blue or it can be of a pastel colour

 

Always flat or low heels for the health of my column.

And the house.

I like this kind of kitchen.

And everything that evokes that feeling.

            

        

And I always hang our clothes on the line.

It's a way of living and I'm not alone in that.
