Florist News

I know.......these forums can be a real side-tracker. I'm also working on my website. But Hey, I can multi-task!

The wonderful wacky world of weddings! Don't worry. Before you get too tired of the trends, they will change again.

You know as much as I love frangipanis and have worked hard to find them....I, too, will probably be bored with them. Mark my words on that one

But flowers are what we do and we make people really happy too! (at least most of the time)

Good luck with your wedding

Roberta

Thanks for telling us so much about your life Roberta. One of my brides this summer was a DR in Clinical Psychology and she did a similar job to you. Lovely lady, but I am awful you know, I kept wondering what she made of me. (I have a screw missing at the best of times). We chatted on quite a few occasions about her wedding flowers and every time I said something which made me think "now she is going to think that I am mad!" There was one occasion when she came to the shop, so was so lovely to me that I had this urge to lay down on a couch and tell her all about my worries

Good luck with your new (additional) career.

Thanks for the great laugh!!!

Please, Please, Please forget I ever mentioned that whole psychology thing. I must be "mad" to have even brought it up here !!!

It's just a breath of fresh air to escape hearing about anyones problems and just deal with pretty things like flowers. You know what I mean?!?!

One of these days I'm going to learn to exclude that bit of information. I sometimes forget!

I was on a cruise once and someone asked what I did for a living..........grrrrrrr. When I let them know, I heard more than I ever wanted to hear about their lifes problems. Thanks for sharing, but I'm vacationing!

Arrr Roberta, I was just going to lay down on the settee (nearest thing I have to a couch!) but I could compromise - I could tell you about my problems with flowers

Only messing love, we are all mad on here anyway, so you would have your work cut out to do any good.

Oh My.........are you suggesting that I could be the forum flower counselor?!?!

I think I should start with the frangipanis since they gave me so many problems

haha excellent idea Roberta. And by the way I'm really glad that you found what you needed on ebay. I have had to ban myself from there for a few weeks because I am spending too much money bidding for things that I don't need

Would you believe.....this week was my first time on ebay! Lot's of neat things. I'm going to be "good" and not spend too much time there. I already saw some tussie bouquet holders that intrigued me a lot. But I left them alone!!

Believe you me Roberta... Florists are an "insane" lot and are in need of a lot of help ( especially me!)

Well, guess what!

I'm off duty and I like it just fine! The flowers though........I think I could handle dealing with them. They don't talk back

haha love it! That must be why I love being a florist so much. Right I have tired myself out so I am going back to bed for an hour before I have to get up for real Take care Roberta, I will chat to you soon.
