You wouldn’t believe me if I told you, but this post was supposed to look cute when I first started. Then, well, who knows what happened? Somewhere between the devil horns, the clamps and a bit of rum on a Friday night, my innocent little self turned into this madam! I have been falsely accused of being a Corrupter. I can assure you it’s not the case! If anything, I’m a corruptee. An Innocent led astray. After all, who can call me a corrupter when all I do is enjoy a little gin, a little knitting and some….other activities….from time to time 😉

Congratulations people, give yourselves a pat on the back. You survived the week. Yes…you gorgeous people! YOU! YOU DID IT!! ……..

This is exactly what I was thinking as I finished my working week ….ohhhh…… 7 hours ago now. This first week back has been brutal. Some would say it’s self inflicted. I prefer to think of it like ripping off a plaster: a short amount of intense pain for the long term benefit (in this case, I had two weeks off at Christmas).

Do I have any regrets? Right now…yes! lol! Will I probably do this again? Probably LOL! Who knows what this year will bring in RL, but so far in SL, there’s been a few surprises. It’s definitely going to be an interesting one!

Don’t threaten me with a good time.

I am tired. Incredibly tired. As one of my managers at work told me….well, that’ll teach you to plan two weeks off and come back to three heavy workload days on the trot. Yes, she’s right. Yes, I’m exhausted. No, I don’t need reminding. My Christmas break seems so long ago now. I just want to sleep some more. So if one more person attempts some humour about my packed week today I may very well use this knife on them…and then go home for a nap…zzzzzzz

Piglets and Icicles

Semi naked piglets and cold weather definitely do not mix, as evidenced by my little companion today. We humans can snuggle down and layer up but my little buddy…well he’s completely dependent on the warmth my arm is providing and right now, that isn’t much! At least we can nip indoors for a mug of hot cocoa…..as long as I can remember where I left my keys >.<

Shine Bright <3

We all have a chance to shine. We choose how brightly (or dimly) we shine in life and in turn, our choices and actions cause others to shine too. I intend to shine brightly next year and I hope you do too x

A good book

I love reading. It’s an activity I’ve enjoyed since I was a little girl, often reading in the car…in the dark…getting told off by my mother! I’d read anything I could get my hands on, losing myself in the characters and their stories. As a teen, I attempted writing; often poetry, often depressing,  but a learning experience nonetheless.

Even now, I’ll take a book to bed and just read for hours. More recently, I remember reading The Kite Runner for six hours straight. I didn’t put it down until I’d finished it, even though it was 2am and I was tired.

At the moment, I’m reading Stephen King’s “The Dark Tower” series and after a year, I’m finally on the penultimate novel (book six of seven). Let me tell you, THAT has been a labour of love but a superb read nonetheless. Knowing Mr King, I’m wondering if the ending will leave me aghast or annoyed, but we’ll see. That’s part of the fun of dipping your toe into another person’s world and seeing where their imagination takes you.
