Random post for the day.........

......yesterday I got a lovely mail to say I was going to be published in 'Artful Blogging' with the layout that I won OLW with....I am well chuffed !!!!

Job watch: 1 interview done....two next week.
One for a pastry company - pies for lunch, dinner and tea!!!! and the odd pastie maybe...
And the other.....a bacon company - somehow the chap picked up that I was more likely to have a plate of veggies than a pork chop though....don't know how??!! Sam will be pleased with this cause Kev is known as Uncle Kev 'who makes very nice bacon sandwiches'.

How come I am getting interviews for food companies......are they saying I like food or somink? How can they tell??!!

And I got through to part 2 of SIS dt member search....then again there are about 100 of us so a long way to go yet!!

Today would have been my Nana & Grandads anniversary......63 years.....for us to make it that far Kev will have to make it to 107 years old.....mmmmmmm.......

Night x

New things to show ........






Still trying hard to find a new job......and looking in new directions. Decided to stop talking about what I would like to do and actually try and do it. Not gonna be easy.....less money for a while - back to school - still seeing whether it is viable so not gonna speak too soon !!!!!!

New tune ......... well an old tune but one to remember !!!!!! (wave your hands in the air...you know you want to!!!!!)


And I got onto the
sistv 'catwalk' last week with this....


Picture is a bit poo......never any natural light at the moment......

See ya later....night :o)

Today

We are 8 today.........

We celebrated in my lunch hour with a Starbucks and a subway.........oooohhhh aren't we exciting!!!!! Then again I am the only one in my office that gets treated to 'lunch dates' so I am a lucky gal really xxx

and my mummy was celebrating her birthday too......

a bit sad in places because one of the first things she realised was that it was the first time her mum & dad had not rung her to say happy birthday.....another one of those days that gets saved by relying on all those good memories you have.........and a phone call from Samuel - that brightens anyones day!!

Happy Birthday to my mummy xxxxxxx

New year....new banner....

Yes, rather than doing things I should instead I have been messing around on the computer....dang thing...decided to have a new banner, fed up of looking at my mug to be honest!!!!!

Got a lovely package yesterday of vintage japanese beads and things....

This is some of the stuff that I have been squirrelling away for the new store.....might have to sample some myself first though!!! That is the problem with selling things you love, you want to gobble it all up yourself!!!!

Got some more stuff arriving soon....keep checking the store as we should be able to get up and running soon. We just need to iron out a couple of teething issues and clear up work schedules and we should have lift off!!!!

Here is a little photo of a teRaa pile-up from xmas........one of the only photos that was taken, for some reason no-one ever wants to take any of me!!!!!

Night zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Hello 2008 - what ya knowin??

Hey ho, off we go, into another year. We saw it in very quietly....both not feeling too well.........we spent it together though which is the best way to be any day of the year, not just the last and first!!!!

2007 did have some good bits but the last few months were so 'foggy' that they are a bit hard to see. However, I am a firm believer of things happening for a reason. Without sounding too profound (lol) I lay in bed yesterday and realised what good has come of the past 6 months.......I survived it.

I think some would have thought I wouldn't and if I am honest I had my doubts!!!!!!! But I did it.....and I am proud of myself for doing it. Hark at me...survive and proud all in one go!!!!! Wee hee.

So what has this year got in store for us I wonder.......hopefully some good answers to the 'issues' 2007 threw at us!!! I don't do resolutions - bit pointless really, if something needs to be done do it anyway, don't wait till new year!! I do have a list of stuff on my 'to do' list though......

Get a job - along the way I am actually gonna figure out what I want to do with my life....32 and still not sure!! I don't mind my job and some days I leave the house 'hi hoing' my way to the office......but I am in search of that dream job (see further down the list!!!!)

Keep searching for our miracle child........somewhere......(see further down the list)

Hopefully sell our house.....the new one is all decorated in my head and if we don't get in there soon it will be time to redecorate and my head is just too full at the moment!!!!

Create more. Starting a pottery course in Feb(ish)....just something I always wanted to do.

Excercise (mmmmm!!!!!)

Make more friends

Keep believing in miracles

Keep dreaming

What is your year waving at you? Hope you enjoy it.

Here is to a happy 2008 - keep smiling!!!!
