Daisies and an Apron

 Well, here I am.poised within the retail window that overlooks the downtown. People appear to be quite friendly but I must say that my nervousness leaves my cheerfulness impaired. My hope is that my worrisome mood will pass as I get acquainted with my new surroundings.
 


In the meantime, I stand as graceful as I can muster while appearing comfortable and content.Which I must say is not entirely true.


I am happy to have these photographs to share with you, my dear readers. I do hope this does not turn into too much of an adventure. I am not typically the adventurous type.
  I hope all of you are doing well.

Warm Regards,
Betty

Unexpected turns

Dear Readers,
As in every good and descent novel, there are unexpected twists and turns that help us to engage with the writer's plot. Not so dramatically, I, too, have encountered a plot twist. I have been asked to leave the studio where I have resided since being unboxed. I am asked to join the other workers at the retail store and have surprisingly found that I shall be window mannequin for quite a number of weeks. I must admit I do find myself a twitter with anxiety at this new prospect. I am quite unprepared but shall rise to this occasion as best I can, while gently smiling of course.


How shall I respond to customers? What will be expected of me? Time will be our revealer. I shall put on my bravest face, stand tall, smile courteously and open my heart to a new adventure. I am a bit relieved to hear of my clothing. I shall be dressed in daisies in yellow gingham with a proper shawl, happily my dress will be appropriate for Spring. Goodness, I don't think they mentioned gloves and lipstick....and pearls, well, they wouldn't forget those, would they? It is an outing, isn't it?

Warm regards,
Betty
