Bye bye old, hello new…
Phew, it’s all over! I moved house on Friday and boy was it a palava? Not only was it incredibly stressful and tiring but completely draining too. I spent most of Friday and Saturday worrying about getting it all done before the transit van had to go back and worrying my dad was going to [...]
Why does tax have to be taxing?
Yep, that’s right, I attempted my self assessment! I won actually! It wasn’t a fair fight though, lots of nasty-ness, Internet access trying to sabotage me by cutting out whilst submitting my application, trying to the odd rogue receipt which turned up like a bad penny at the end – all the usual kind of [...]
Lovely little mention…
It’s been a good week this week, not only am I one of Folksy’s featured members this week but I also got a lovely mention from Sew Scruptious who saw my glasses cases on Misi.

Easing back in to work…
I can’t believe it but I’ve been off work for almost three weeks now, it’s gone by so quickly! I can’t believe that it’s been that long since I’ve done any work – my own work that is. I’ve been taking my doctors advice and resting which means no work. I cheated slightly by making [...]
