it was worth it

the last few days have been full of grunt work, organizing and paring down. so of course blogging is taking it’s back of the bus status. seems like whenever i get here someone knocks, calls or (worst) looks over my shoulder! i’m alone now and furiously writing for this brief shining moment when i can be here!

anyway in the midst of my grunting, i found a missing envelope with these antique perfume labels i got in paris a few years ago (and thought they were gone forever). finding them changed my day. the work!

it’s a list of what’ hot, the top searches in the world. cheat sheet to the world’s yard sale!

    I almost forgot. The perfume labels are beautiful. My mum used to collect such things. At the time I thought it was useless clutter. It seems you must get to near the 40s to begin appreciating things!
