It was FUN to come by today and read this, though. If you email your address to me, I will find some fun knee socks to mail to you (to replace some of the ones you tossed). The picture of you at the end is FANTABULOUS! So mysterious! Yet, we still see your precious bandana (hehe). How 'bout taking a similar one with you wearing all your baubles?

When I left my last job to embark on my adventure to Ukraine, my colleagues purchased for me a pair of hot pink gloves with bright green thread, and a hot pink scarf. Unwittingly, I then purchased a new pair of hot pink specs with a bright green trim. I am turning into one of those crazy cat (well, in my case, hot pink and green) ladies. Ohh I would love a pink car but Mr Moi might leave me. Or at least, refuse to ride with me.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Dear mum. Wow that was a lot of exclamation marks. !. I do have sentimental stuff, just not here in Kyiv. And I was too drunk to remember to take any of the telegrams from our wedding. Do you have them?

Those knee socks sound very lovely, especially the red ones, ooohh ahhhh. They might just match the red bandanna.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Dear min. Oh thanks. I need to get you to talk some sense into my mum, she's been calling all my stuff rubbish for years :(<BR/><BR/><BR/>Dear melissa. I have never heard of slipper socks. Are they like knee socks? Is there a whole new sock world out there for me to explore? Please tell. <BR/><BR/><BR/>Dear mjd. I like the pink ones too. They are certainly up there with the faves, and very warm for the Kyiv winter.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Dear pamela. Does the cat in the hat like socks? Then I would like the cat in the hat. Yes my socks are very warm but you must remember they all have holes in their toes (cunningly disguised in my photo). So if I lent them to you, you might get a toe-wind-chill-factor...<BR/><BR/><BR/>Dear willowtree. Yes what is it about the socks? No one is commenting on my precious jewellery. I will have to search back for this post of yours. Sounds rather eye opening. I threw out the perfect pair of knee socks to go with a pirate outfit - black over-the-knees with bright green skull and crossbones. If it turns out I kept them, I shall send them to you.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Dear Karmyn. Ohhh a husband who has his own knee socks! you're luckly. Mr Moi likes MY knee socks. He also likes to put holes in the heels. Grrr.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Dear beccy. I have discovered that knee socks are actually for boots! But, I only got my first pair of boots two months ago. Before that it was knee socks and mary-janes all the way. Who's your preferred knee sock supplier? Maybe I can stock up if they have a store in the UK.... And don't you love the cheap accessories cause of the pretty colours too? Ahh they're just so cheap you can buy heaps of them!<BR/><BR/><BR/>Dear Samantha Louise. Thanks! I like to make people giggle. But just don't get yourself into a spot of bother at work. I used to jump everytime my boss caught me on the net!<BR/><BR/><BR/>Dear bethany.
