happy new year

Don't you just love a new year?

I am not much into resolutions, but I plan and make goals for the year ahead very actively.  I also put that down to having the quiet time to think clearly.

This year I am starting a visual diary expressly for calico and ivy, so as I don't lose sight of what we aim to achieve and present to our customers.

Page one will be neatly pasted and sketched, artfully styled and perfect.  Then, time constraints will see it become more messy, but with the aim being visual inspiration and reminder for myself and the girls here, that is very acceptable... if anything the way I would rather it be.  All a bit like school days to me.

Snippets from my visual musings will be posted here also, as your opinions are sought.

Now back to the business of holiday time...

Ah... a peaceful place to lay ones head

Please take time over the new year break to relax and compose ideas for your new year ahead.

Summer holidays - installment 1

My Christmas and New Year are quietly spent at a little ex-fishermans cottage in Mandurah.  Open house is extended to family and friends, and we move our animal menagerie down so they too have the opportunity to experience the change of scenery and their own summer break.

Those of you who know me well, know I have 14 pet rabbits.  It is a long story as to why I have 14 pet rabbits, but I think I can leave that ditty to your imaginations.

With a limited battery life and no charger here with me in Mandurah I have only pics of those who chose to co-operate.

Now my secret is out, and I have been indulged...thanks.
