I have never, ever been good at keeping a diary. Why oh why did I think I'd be better at keeping a blog?! It's hard! So....one month on, the Decorah eaglets are HUGE and I'm back! Lots has happened. In short:
1. I turned f-f-f-f-forty. I still can't believe it, but at least I did it in style at the Hard Rock Hotel in Vegas with 10 friends (drag me there on my walker for my 90th!)
Champagne in one hand......gin and more champagne in the other!!
Prost! Fun times with fab friends (not too many details though....what happens in Vegas.....!)
2.There was a small, low key, British family wedding (feeling super patriotic, I got up at 1.30am to watch it live and wave my flag (really) AND went to boot camp that morning!!)
they're clean eating muffins honest guvvner! (muffin toppers and wrappers courtesy of mum, carcinogenic red, white and blue icing courtesy of ME!)
I got so excited that I took (lots of) photos of the TV screen!!!
Yeah, I know...sad! BUT, when I guiltily admitted taking photos of the screen, I discovered that I was FAR from being alone!! LOOK! i could've made millions from this perfect shot!!
3. I fell in love!! (when I babysat gorgeous, toddler puggles Layla and Dyson!!)
What??? I would NEVER EVER do anything naughty!
You know Karen, I think the ripped jeans thing is 'on trend' right now.....
4. After being jiggled around the world and taking almost 8000 photos, it was taking photos at a half marathon that finally killed my beloved Canon S90....it gave up the ghost...lens stuck out erect...a heartbreaking sight (and photographed particularly badly with my spare camera) :-(
Or perhaps I accidentally sprayed it with this????
It's amazing what you can buy in a spray these days....!!
5. I MOVED!!! Into my own place (at least for now) with a dedicated CRAFT ROOM that i hardly ever leave!!
6. I sold my very first Etsy item!!!!!!! so excited!!!!!
The Technicolor Dream Cardigan!!!! On my way to my first million - one cardy at a time!
A 'Champagne in One Hand' (geddit?!) celebration for our inaugural sale! Me and my Director of Business Development/VP of Color and Design! (yeah I really need to get a new camera cos now my Nikon coolpix fallback camera looks like cr@p). Karen came round for the celebration too!!! Thanks my friend!!
7. I made a resolution to post on my blog more regularly!! See you soon! xx
