At the beginning of the year I made some New Years Resolutions (as you do), one of them was to keep a journal for my daughters to look back on some time later, much later.  Hopefully to give them a better understanding of their mother,  not that I'm hard to understand.  But it might give them an insight into what makes their Mum tick.

I wanted the journal to be handwritten, I've done a few pages, but it's pretty much impossible to get a decent amount of time to scribe anything remotely ledgable.  Then I have to put up with all the inquires of what I'm writing about, which I just can't be bothered explaining and I'm sure my husband thinks I'm weird for feeling the need to do this, although he doesn't know I'm writing/blogging.

So, I'm back to blogging. I've never been much of a blogger.  I always stop and start, and struggle not to ramble on with meaningless dribble.  I don't particularly like reading long winded enteries on other blogs, I get bored and stop reading, so I hope to keep mine short, sweet and to the point.

A bit about me:  This year I will be 40, which I'm struggling to come to terms with.  Where did all that time go?  I have two beautiful daughters, and a wonderfully caring husband.  I have a Cavooodle called Monty, he's lovely, but a bit of a terror.  And my youngest daughter has two guinea pigs, one of them had a trip to the vet yesterday, poor little thing has a cold and a bit of broncitis. I have the awesome job of giving her antibiotics this afternoon then each day for a week.  Not sure how that is going to go down.

What else?  I love papercraft, mainly card making, I scrapbook too, but haven't done that for a while.  I have a few lovely clients who buy my cards and you can buy them through my FB pages Sweet Pea Card Designs, there's link on the right of my blog.  I work part time for a government detp, I've been there 20 years.  I can't say I particularly enjoy it or hate it, I think I'm bored, but can't really leave, unless I win lotto anytime soon.  Today, my boss told me she nominated me to do a Leadership Program and today I received an email saying I've been accepted, I'm kinda excited about it, but nervous too.  I hate doing group discussions, incase I don't know what to contribute and look like a fool.  Anyhoo, I accepted the nomination, the program goes for six month and starts in July.  That's enough for now, you'll get to know me as time goes on, not that I have much of an audience.  I feel only my best friend will comment (she's gorgeous btw).  I'm a bit jealous of her really, she had loads of followers, lol.

That's enough I think.  It's getting to the length of 'too long' and I'm sure it's a boarderline boring.
