Hi ladies! I trust you've all been well, and enjoying your days where ever you are and what ever you may be doing? Firstly I'd like to thank all of you who took the time to leave a comment regarding our sweet little Mia BonBon. We read all of your comments and want you to know that we appreciate you all so very much! LuLu is still missing her little mate and still looks for her at times it seems, but life is settling into a new routine for us all with out little Mia. Like life is for all of us these days, life has been pretty busy here at our little Jacaranda Cottage. Princess is nearing the end of a very important year in her schooling career, and she has her annual dance concert coming up in a couple of weeks too. It's been a whirl of school exams, dance exams, dance rehearsals and costume fittings for us lately so I have decided to take a little break from blogging for a bit. It may only be for a week or two, perhaps longer, I'm not sure. I just know that I am feeling completely worn out lately and have lost my blogging mojo. I hope that after a good brain and body rest that I'll be back to feeling all inspired and ready to show you something fun again here at Jacaranda Cottage.
Before I sign off though I wanted to share with you my latest finds......
This white wrought iron out door setting was an absolute steal at $20. I have been looking for one for the longest time and recently I just happened upon a lady who wanted to get rid of them. She was happy to give them to me for free, but I just couldn't take them for nothing, so I offered her $20 and she was tickled pink with that......and so was I!
Then I popped into my favourite local thrift store to have my weekly poke around and seeing nothing of interest I was just about to head out the door when out of the corner of my eye I saw these two little lovelies.......
and all for the costly sum of $2 each! Cute hey? Just goes to show that you never know what you'll find if you're prepared to look!
Well my dear friends, it's about time for me to sign off. I'll be back soon, just need to recharge my inner batteries for a bit, so please don't forget me ok?
See you soon..........love and hugs ~ Amanda xxx

I'll miss you, Amanda, but take care of yourself. We all need time to renew our spirits.
I love your new set. I've been looking for one for years. Maybe I'll get lucky, too.

Take care, Amanda. You have had a lot on your plate lately, and having to deal with the loss of Mia must be so emotionally draining.
Take your rest - we will see you when you get back!
Oh Amanda....how could we ever forget you....have been thinking about you all week wondering how you are - you're always in our thoughts! Have a break, find your mojo and we'll all be looking forward to the day you return..

Love the table and chairs. I bet they fit right in at your cottage. Enjoy your blogging break!
Enjoy your rest. I wouldn't be surprised if you find yourself thinking of all of us as you see little things of interest or do little ordinary tasks ... like thrift shop finds, or as you prepare a recipe ... your thoughts may drift to: I sure am excited to go back to my blog and share that! I know that happens to me.
Take care, Amanda!
Looking forward to your return.
Not sure when to check back in ... maybe come by our blogs and say hi when you are back so we know when you are back?
Love you,
Wendy
Amanda, I've been away for awhile and just now catching up. I just want to say how sorry I am for the loss of your little Mia. What a sad thing. May God comfort your hearts. Kathi
Hi Amanda~
Hope you have a very relaxing quiet time. I'm so very sorry about your sweet little pup. It's one of the toughest things to go through. I love the part where you said she would be the most pampered pet on the planet. Was a sweetie.
have a nice rest Amanda, sometimes its a good idea to have a break. See you upon your return!

Dear Amanda, enjoy your down time and get plenty of rest and inspiration from all the beauty around you, not to mention your wonderful daughter and husband.
I'm so sorry to hear about Mia Bonbon. But she had the very best love and care from you all while she blessed this earth with her presence.
Hugs to little Lulu!
I'll be watching for your return - you are in my blogroll. In the meantime, take it easy and enjoy every day for the blessing it is.
Love and best wishes from Southern California.
