Oh Kathryn,
That must be hard for you my lovely, as infuriating as a house full can be some moments….I know how very lucky I am . Let’s hope those days move easily toward seeing your family again super soon.

In reply to Julia Smith.

Julia, how kind of you to write that, I know all of us are so touched by such lovely words we have received and I think we too have realised the powerful and special energy source that Qvc is, connecting us all to one another each day.
I have one fully burst through Peony and then really tightly budded ones I’m awaiting …my poppies are beautiful and whilst the winds walloped a few of my delphiniums down sadly , everything else is blooming , it gives me pleasure to inspect daily!
I am so very sorry to read of your daughters father in law…it must be so incredibly difficult for them all. I hope the Memorial Service they can plan will help to ease their pain, though if only this wasn’t all happening….
Hope you did in fact get a little less grey for your troubles Julia!
Enjoy a lovely settled and I hope happy weekend and Bank Holiday .
Take Care ,
Claire xx

I don’t do twitter or instagram so thought i would leave a message on here about your latest instagram post … whatever you’re dealing with at the moment have faith in the fact you are not alone – i read with much pleasure your instagram posts and QVC stories and find your honesty and humanity so refreshing – I wish you so many positive vibes and a speedy resolution to whatever dilemma you’re facing at the moment. Sending much love Clare Harris Xxx

Hi Claire, thank you for sharing your lovely blogs. I always enjoy reading them. Happy Birthday to Tom. I just can’t believe he 19 years old already. You are doing a fantastic job. Thank you for all your tips. Stay safe. Antoinette

Hi Claire,
This first thing I noticed at the start of the blog was that lovely picture and your hair. It looks amazing and I did think you must have created it yourself. What a clever lady you are! I found the VE Day celebrations a wonderful albeit emotional respite from the days we are going through and seemed to make our daily worries,moans etc rather trivial in comparison.
Take care,

Denise

Oh Claire
You cheer a soul when I’m feeling particularly grumpy, tetchy and down. I feel exhausted listening to you and all you achieve and a little envious of having a lovely family around you . Lockdown solo isn’t a lot of laughs with family 6000miles away. Still it’s the end of another day! Keep cheering us up. Kxx

Hi Claire thank you for taking the time to write such a great blog and an honest one at that. As you say our moods are very up & down – so thankful that we are ok but depressed at the same time that it is all happening and thinking about families who have lost loved ones – unfortunately my youngest daughters father- in -law being one of the statistics. They have had to wait weeks for the funeral and only three can attend. But hopefully soon a memorial celebration of his life can be attended by all his family and friends.
Some ‘fun’ experiences too including trying to do my roots and getting more on clothing than on the grey on my head! Forgetting words for something because staying home so long seems to addle the brain (that’s my excuse anyway!) Pleasures can be found in the garden seeing the peonies coming into flower and speaking more to neighbours who are now working from home. We joined them on VE day staying in our own drives and sharing a commemorative glass to all our heroes including some of my family. I would like to think that I looked as great as you did in your outfit and brilliant hairstyle – but I did change out of my joggers and put some make up on.
QVC has as always been there with friendly faces, excellent brands along with excellent customer service and I would like to thank you all for that. In the scheme of things it could be said that it isn’t important but it is all about communication and at a time when we crave our families & friends to be near us it makes you realise that we are not alone in this world and we all have a common bond and that is caring for each other and that has definitely come through over these last weeks
Take care everyone and stay safe with love from Julia (Smith) xxxx
