Merry Christmas!

These are my Christmas prezzies this year! Hearken your ear!

Smidge is in my bra, peeking out at the awesome goodness of my gifts, hehe

Got the best scenes from ‘It’s a Wonderful Life’ for you… I always cry a bit at the ending lol

subliminal suggestion: we are so blessed

I bought an Olympus OM-D m4/3 camera back when the line first came out! I had never seen a digital camera that looked like old 35mm cams back in the day… it was to be my last camera ever, and nooo, I had to sell it later coz the money was needed elsewhere in a bit of an emergency, and all these years later… I’ve got another one! I can’t tell you how happy I am about it!! revenge upon ‘dire chance and fateful cockup’

Hubby was able to find my old kit lens and a handmade camera strap I had made by an etsy seller… I never used my kit zoom as you can tell, the plastic is still on the lens cap. I didn’t use it because i had a 45mm f1.8 lens that I just loved (which also got sacrificed for the cause)… so much lovely bokeh! I will replace the lens laterz …

I’ll take the lesson learned from ‘Sense and Sensibility’ when Colonel Brandon reads to Marianne near the end
‘for there is nothing lost, that may be found.. if sought’

oh and, my fave perfume, Coco Chanel.. which I haven’t bought in years… it smells more spicy on me than it did, but still gooood… i had to stop wearing perfume for a while… chemically sensitive! it’s nice to smell pretty again

Lovely prezzies! I know, Christmas isn’t just about the prezzies, but I am just so happy to have retrieved my fave camera from the abyss… Just had to share! xoxox Hope your Christmas was blessed too! and that you smell as pretty as I doooo.

My mug biz did a good job with Christmas tooooo.
