I love holidays, because I get to spend time doing the things I love doing - like writing here! The only trouble with this is that when school starts again I'm going to have a hard time sustaining this pace!
However, I have just discovered the Suitcase Entrepreneur, Natalie Sissons, and I'm going to take her 15 day blog challenge so you can expect to see some more regular blogging from now on.
Today I am mostly feeling grateful. Grateful that I have such a wonderful husband (who is also my best friend) and two awesome teenage sons, grateful that I have the freedom to work at home or in my office as the mood takes me, grateful that it is raining today and freshening up our very dry environment. I love my work space (but not all the clutter that has accumulated.... must do something about that this week!), the fact I have a new Colin Thompson jigsaw puzzle to do over the weekend, my bonkers dog who has showered me with love at every opportunity since I went away over the Easter weekend and my killer heels that I'm wearing today.
I was recently involved with a Pechakucha Night in town, and am pondering topics for the future. I ought to be brave enough to get up and speak, but it's narrowing down the things I might talk about. If you're not familiar with the format, it has been run in 800 cities globally, and has been around since 2003. Speakers share 20 images, and have 20 seconds to talk to each image. We held our inaugural event at the end of March, and sold out our local Art Gallery - 130 people! Our 12 speakers were fascinating, and I can't wait until the next one in June. Somehow I've ended up on the organising committee for it, so you can expect to hear a lot more about it from now on!
In fact you could check it out for yourself at http://www.pechakucha.org
Enjoy!
