Hey Hey Its Saturday

Well its Saturday down under anyway.Reminds me of the old show we had on TV back in the 70s and 80s.Will bring back memories to all us Aussie's and who could forget Ozzie Ostrich? LOL.Those were the days.Funny thing I didnt even watch it till it was about to end but heard about it alot at school.Speaking of school I so hope the 80s fashion hairstyles etc etc never come back lol.Who the heck thought of those fashions anyway.How embarassing are all those old pics?LOL least they give my kids a good laugh.

Speaking of fashion I have a love of fashions from the 70s and back I have had a fascination for it for years now and am finally turning that love into a business by hiring fancy dress clothes and authentic vintage out to people.
My first rememberance of loving old clothes and playing dress ups ( no I dont do regular dress ups either LOL)was back when I was about 5 or 6 and we had a dress up box at school there was this one dress I remember a brown netted concoction (and most likely quite ugly If I was to see it now)But I loved it but so did all the other girls (and boys too for all I knew) and so even tho I tried so hard to get it I ony got to wear it once,that I can remember.
Maybe it was that and my little cowgirl suit (gotta love Annie Oakly even had the fake plaits attached to my hat and the tin rocking horse )I had that made me love dressup stuff and maybe it was my mums love of going to Op shops ( opportunity shops full of 2nd hand stuff) But whatever it was I still love it all and have an addiction to op shops now.I think its a better addiction to other things tho as I dont smoke gamble or drink (too often) so I figure I need some addiction(and no my internet addiction doesnt count LOL)

Anyway getting back to my offline business.For many years I have wanted to have a fancy dress hire place and I wss offered to buy someones clothes so now I have a hire business called Wait for it ....
"Lets Play Dress Ups" Cool name aye? well I like it.I am still setting it up and spent most of the day sorting the good stuff from the get rid of that (or what the heck is that )LOL.Must admt I have come across a few treasures I wont be parting with or hiring out like the old beaded bags I found at the bottom of a box and a few vintage dresses.
My grandkids think its great they also have a love of playng dress ups,not sure where they got that from hmm? Anyway wish me luck with it but not too worried as now I have some awesome clothes for any dress up party I get invited too.So its all good.

I sometimes wonder if I am hyperactive I love to be doing something all the time. I am not one to just sit and stare into space I can sit for hours if I have something to read or do as in knit etc but cannot for the life of me just plain old it.I sit alot tho when I am on the computer which is yere ok a bit too much.I am grateful that I came from a stay thin gene pool other wise my butt would be huge by now(well huger) lol.

Ok thats about it for my daily b-rambling on I will see you again soon I hope and if you havent as yet signed my guest book pleae do my team members and friends at CTWT are signing it so its starting to look fuller now.Thanks guys.

Here is my thought of the day just found it and loved it

"Whatever your dream,if you allow it to emerge,you will find the strength to make it real."


Keep smiling and may all your dreams come true.
