The cold front that moved through London this past week (leaving us shivering in sub-zero temperatures) seems to have brought with it some troughs and lows to The Messy Life (rather like the 70's tv series "The Good Life" but a whole lot messier ;-)) and very few highs.
To cheer me up, a lovely friend sent me her favourite quote from the Sound of Music (by Maria) which I just love:
"Reverend Mother always says when the Lord closes a door, somewhere He opens a window"
