We drove home at midnight without surgery, with a back slab cast, exhausted and emotional.
Today we are taking it easy. She is watching a movie and eating a bowl full of sultanas and nuts and I am slowly working out how to load items into my new online shop. Slowly.
eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeekkkkkkkkkk!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have my very own online shop.
The wonderful and talented and clever Cath set it up.
Thanks Cath!!

Let me know what you think.
I am so new to this and ANY suggestions/feedback will be most welcome.
And finally, a huge thanks for all the gorgeous comments and emails you guys have been leaving. I read many of them on my phone at the hospital last night and they really lightened my mood and made me smile. I promise to get my blogtober bum into gear and come and visit you really soon.
I hope your Tuesday is a happy and drama free one.

ReplyDeletePoor Jazzy! So sorry to hear about her elbow and hospital time.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on the shop. Hope it is a great success.
:)
Hi Kate, Congrats on going ahead with the shop! I hope Jazzy's elbow heals well and quickly.
ReplyDeleteOh no Jazzy !
ReplyDeleteYou poor things, you get over the bugs and then now the breaks.
But so much good news - no surgery, your online store - which will make it so handy to sell stuff while being gypsies - i assume a little sewing machine will fit in there somewhere :) or just a box of stock to post . . . . and then boxes of op shop finds to keep posting home . . . . so very exciting . . . envious of you all.
oh poor Jazzy!
ReplyDeleteand congrats on the shop (and watch out other op-shoppers, Kate is about to raid the op-shops!)
Big hugs (in a non-touching or squashing the elbow kind of way) for Jazzy!
ReplyDelete... and a big congratulations to you for opening your own stall. WOW! Bravo! It looks fantastic :)
Poor Jazzy - and just before her birthday too!
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to check out what you've got in the shop - I'm sure you'll be constantly "SOLD OUT"!
Oh, poor Jazzy - that sounds like a horrible ordeal for all of you. Does this mean it will heal up without surgery, or are you still waiting to hear about it? I hope she gets to eat sultanas and nuts to her heart's content :)
ReplyDeleteThat's great that you've set up a shop. I'm going to check it out right now!
Congratulations on opening your shop!! You will be huge I tell you!
ReplyDeleteAnd ouchie Jazzy!! Big hugs to you all. And Jazzy, my mum used to put chocolate chips in my nuts and sultanas ;) xox

ReplyDeleteSorry - deleted last comment - my spelling is shocking:)
ReplyDeleteHugs and kisses to Jazzy - I hope she is not too sore! I remember when my nephew broke his elbow on the trampoline ... horrible to see kids sick or injured. They are real troopers though.
The shop - congrats! I love it. I especially like how you have named the items (purple skipping skirt ect). It makes it so much more personal!
I am sure you are going to do great with it! Are you planning an adult line ?? :)

Oh Kate, I'm sorry to hear of Jazzy's accident, but glad she didn't have to have surgery.
ReplyDeleteA little poem for Jazzy:
Jazzy thought she was a monkey,
she hung and swung and swayed,
But like any cheeky monkey,
she'll swing again some sunny day!
The shop looks very professional, wishing you every success.

oh my...i had so much to catch up on over here. so many wonderful things happening on foxes lane. and then miss jazzy's fall, sending her love.
ReplyDeleteMuch love to Jazzy and to you. xx Huge congrats on the shop too. It looks lovely and I'm in love with a coupe of dresses already :)
ReplyDeleteOh noooooo!
ReplyDeleteAnd just before her birthday too!!!
Hope she is feeling better soon.
If you send me your inlaws phone number, I'll communicate directly with them to get Jazzy's cushion to them before Saturday.

Ouch! Poor girl. Poor you, too. Lovely to see the progress on your shop. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteOh your poor thing! And your poor little one! So awful seeing your kids in pain. Glad you took it easy today...you may still need to tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteGreat news about the online shop, I had a peek and it looks great!
Poor Jazzy, hope she is feeling better today, a cast is not very comfortable :-( Are they going to do a special coloured one for her??
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the shop....I'm off for a visit :-) Woweeeee!!!
Long-time lurker, first time commenter. Such a beautiful shop, congratulations! I second the request for an adult line as your dresses are so so beautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteHope Jazzy is feeling better - we went through the same thing with a hand bone break last year. I know how distressing it can be for all involved!

I bet that was sore..the elbow area. I am glad all is okay. Congrats on your shop. Very exciting.
ReplyDeleteMy daughter got a greenstick fracture between her wrist and elbow last school holidays and after a half cast, that coming off, retripping over and a full up to the shoulder cast, today we finally went to the specialist and got the all clear "look good" report on the healing. Took a whole term ... and then some. Good luck with your daughter's elbow.
ReplyDeleteThe shop looks totally great! There's nothing worse than poor wee hungry people in hospital, been there a few times pre-ops! Glad you're all at home today.
ReplyDeletei hope poor jazzy is feeling chipper soon. you have had your fair share of bad luck in the health problems department lately. i hope that old sickness/injury train pulls out of the fox's lane station for a good long time. big huge congratulations on the shop kate. i think it looks really brilliant. i love your girly dresses and wish they were big enough for me. good luck, you deserve success.
ReplyDeleteHope Jazzy is much better by now!
ReplyDeleteAnd big big congrats on you new little shopy =) it looks lovely <3<3<3 I love the caravan t's
Poor Jazzy and poor you, having to refuse her. Pity doctors don't buy the idea of "medicinal" sultanas:) Congratulations on the shop, I want the Springtime dress for myself.
ReplyDeleteOh, Kate! Poor Jazzy...hope you're all relaxing a bit and taking care of yourselves...
ReplyDeleteAaargh - I've only just seen your post! I'm so sorry to hear about Jazzy, that's a delicate area to have damaged! She must be so glad that she didnt have to stay in hospital. I hope she's feeling a little better now.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to you - how wonderful to see your beautiful creations in your shop! So exciting!!x
Oh my, poor Jazzy - hope she heals quickly and the pain isn't too bad. I wish her a speedy recovery.
ReplyDeleteGreat news on the shop - very exciting. I'm sure it'll be a roaring success.
I had a go at your crochet ric-rac, I love it. Just love it! I just posted a link back to you on my blog, hope this is ok with you. x
Hey Kate, what a time you've all had recently. Best wishes for a speedy recovery to Jazzy.
ReplyDeleteHad a quick peep through the shop window, looking good, congrats.
Spring weather will no doubt lift your spirits too.
Thanks for visiting my blog.
ohh no! poor little girl.
ReplyDeletehope she is doing better today.
and YAY!!! for your new shop, you go girl!!!
wishing you the happiest of days & sending Jazzy some no pain wishes.

My heart missed a beat when I read your post. The very same thing happened to our girl when she was eight. Doc said that next to horses, monkey bars cause the most childhood accidents. She needed her elbow pinned and in plaster for 6 weeks. This was 48 years ago. She is now a busy Mum to two teenage boys and the arm has never given her a moment of trouble. Hope Jazzy's will do as well.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your shop. Exciting eh?
Oops, she'll never forgive me, I meant 38 years ago.
ReplyDeleteOh no - hugs to all. HWat a night for you - hope that the sultanas and nuts today have made up for not having any yesterday. Good luck with the shop - I am interested in seeing how you go - thinking I should do the same:)
ReplyDeleteI hope your daughter is ok now. What an awful break to have. Thaty has got to hurt!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with the shop!
Oh! Pleasure and pain all in the one post! I'm so sorry about Jazzy's fall but so very excited about your shop! Hooray!! Now I hope the break heals soon :( Poor thing!
ReplyDelete'Complimenti' for the shop Kate - that's so great. Sorry to hear about the elbow palava...I would've come and seen you - I was in and out all night too - working though. Cheers. Pxo
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the shop! Hope it goes well. Can I ask how/why you decided on BC rather than Etsy or Made it? Just curious as I'm in the process of wanting to set up a shop too.
ReplyDeleteCheers,
Alice
Hope Jazzy is feeling a bit better by now. We used to get sultanas and nuts in our lunch box pretty much every day so that brought back some memories.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your shop, it looks fantastic Kate! Hope it goes smoothly for you.

Oh the poor little poppet. Thank goodness she didn't need surgery.
ReplyDeleteFantastic news about your shop. It looks very lovely.
Congrats Kate it looks gorgeous! I hope your little princess recovers nicely.x
