cross stitch

Went to the markets, not much to report. Nice venue, but very small. Took a walk up the street into the city to Kinokuniya.
Purchased a book on darning. Sublime.

no doubts

In November last year whilst fluffing around on the computer one Saturday morning I came across …in my spare time. I started getting butterflies in my tummy as I read her entries about art and uni. I emailed Jan, something I don’t think I’ve ever done, to enquire about her course. She replied, which was kind and a kinda shock because I thought she might think I was some sort of wacko. So to cut along story short, I have enrolled in open university , to do arts. Eeek how exciting and nerve-racking.
As a remembrance of this momentous occasion I thought I would treat myself to a present and I bought one of her books. I have little secret remembrances scattered all around the house that I only know about.
I think I have received a bonus card too in the deal, thank-you. Of course it wont be used. It will be a secret remembrance too.

finishing and continuing things

I wore this skirt to work today.  I finished it on Boxing Day and it was sitting in my to do basket since September 07. Can’t rush these things ’spose. I know its just one skirt but it weighs on my mind when I don’t complete things, even more so when a new year starts.

And of course where there is one, there are others, like rats, which we had omg over the last few months but now I pray they have gone.
I started this journal thing when I first discovered blogs, about 2 and a bit years ago. Its from The Wish Jar. I did a few pages of it then stashed it away, pfff, but got it out again this morning. I’m aiming to finish to my level of satisfaction. I reprinted the 100 daily ideas again today and I am off and running.

Oh crap this photo thing - thanks Jodie for doing the reconnaissance . I can see pictures can anyone else?
