On my mind ...

This is a Friday photo feature that anyone with a blog can join. It opens the door to us sharing our lives through these photos and gives us all a new way to discover each other, and maybe form new friendships. Your photo should show something at home that you're thinking about TODAY. If you're in another country you should join in when you read this, even if it's still Thursday.

To take part, all you have to do is post a photo on your own blog, write a short caption explaining it, and link it back to here. Please write a new post, don't link to an older one. When your photo is published, come back and add a comment below, with a link to your blog photo so we can all find you. Please visit all the blogs that appeal to you and leave a comment. Slow down, take the time to cruise around and enjoy your cyber visits.


I can't think of much else - my shop. I've been working away trying to get everything finished and as soon as it is, I'll open it for you to have a look. I'm not sure I'll open today, there is still a lot to do. Oh, and someone emailed asking me to open the shop at a certain time so she would be here and that made me realise I should add a few things throughout the day, not all at once. So that's what I'll be doing, not that I have a lot of things to sell. :- ) But what I do have in this first flush of madness, I hope you like.

  2. My two older pets who require grooming are at the shop today and I'm always happy to pay local people who love their work.

  9. Hi Rhonda. Looks like you've been very busy. Best of luck when the shop opens. I'm sure it will be a huge success.

    I've bribed the kids with a trip to a Victoria Point park at Thompson's Beach in return for a hand tidying up. Wish me luck. Have a great weekend.

  10. Hi Rhonda, Good luck with the shop! I look forward to having a look.

    On my mind is a dilema over deciding on solar power for the long term. So confusing!

  13. I am sure we will Rhonda. I read a quote yesterday from Amanda at Soulemama: "Do the best that you can where you are, and be kind" by Scott Nearing. I thought you might like this at the moment and remember to be kind to yourself as well. xxoo

  15. I just love Etsy shops - and I'm sure yours is going to be very successful. I also love madeit.com.au if you haven't found the Australian Etsy equivalent???

    On my mind today is convenience. I discovered a new appliance - a soup maker. Yep... http://myplaceforspace.blogspot.com/

  22. Hi Rhonda,

    I'm confident the items in your shop will do well :) :) From what I've seen on your blog so far, everything is cute, useful etc ;) :)

    On my mind today is crocheting a flag table mat. The mats aren't big enough for a dinner plate, unless it's from the 1940s :) :) (smaller plates back then) :) :) It's a lot of fun :) :)

    Have a lovely weekend. Love and hugs from Oregon, Heather :)

  25. Good luck with the shop, very keen to see it. Can you believe I have an empty head today, couldn't even get inspiration from a walk with my dogs. So my empty head just has garden weeds in it as I did a turn of the garden and walked away in disgust and returned to the warmth of my couch and blanket.

  27. No links to my blog today but there's a few interesting looking links I'll have a look at over the weekend and I'll be visiting your shop on Monday to have a look. Do we 'screen' shop now instead of 'window' shop if we are looking to note where to buy something nice in the future??
    Have a lovely weekend.
    Cheers,
    Robyn

  42. I'm looking forward to the shop opening, too. It will be much better to browse and know that what I buy will actually come to me!

    I participated in the latest swap but didn't ever receive my package. Even my "angel" didn't send me one after I alerted The Boss that I didn't get one and she said I'd be assigned to an angel whilst originally assigned "Buddy" was put on the naughty list for not reciprocating! good heavens. I have all the luck.

    Bummed - n - burned

    Yes, I AM looking forward to your shop, Rhonda Jean :o) It's going to be a beautiful thing. Best of Luck with it!!

  43. Anonymous, please send me an email to rhondahetzel@ gmail.com with your details. We had some problems with this swap with people not delivering on promises. I'll see you receive what you should have received.
