Went to see my sister who is recovering nicely from a hystericalectomy .....made her laugh which was painful!

Went to view 2 houses - love both so not sure what to do - one is similar to the one we live in...... in the country, bit quirky, old etc and the other one has everything we want but is in a cul de sac, surrounded by houses but in a village atmosphere!

Did the cabinet in the Scarthwaite Hotel - no sales! Not good ...... but the sales are slowly increasing on the website so ....

Got my silver order yesterday so need to start on those new designs and its half term next week!

Wednesday 6th February 2008

Went to the Spring Fair on Monday with a friend. Some great new jewellery designs were on show and we had a good day.

Spent today catching up on repairing a ring, modifying some earrings and making 2 sterling silver commissions.

Still looking in to changes on the website and waiting for advice and quotes!

Shocked about Grange Hill but I guess time moves on. I used to watch it when I was younger but haven't seen it for years ........

Going for a run tomorrow and then on to my course, Adobe Photoshop! Progressing nicely with my images and should have some canvasses to print soon ............

Going to Spring Fair at Birningham tomorrow for a look see at what is going on ........ went for a run after Church today, had a 'family' drive out to deliver a letter and things and watched Wild at Heart with the girls ........... also watched Bourne Ultimatum ........ brilliant as usual ..............

Saturday 26th January 2008

...... been a while ....... got out of the habit and was very easy to stay that way ...... so many other things to do ......... so trying to get back in to the habit ........... currently redesiging the website as things are changing slightly, shop is closing next week so just selling on the web but still continuing with my jewellery.......... got a new customer last week in the Oxo Tower ... d'argent which is a great shop full of fantastic jewellery from designers all over the country .......... hopefully my pieces will sell well! Need to pursue that now more than ever so watch this space!

Heard of a shooting or stabbing in Preston ...... its getting worse and nearer ....... thats 2 incidents in the last few months ....... thinking of going on a diet, would like to lose half a stone so need to start thinking along those lines .......... also increasing exercise level as will probably do Manchester 10km again and maybe some others ...... well thats it for now ....... hopefully I will carry on .........

Friday 19 October 2007

Good week so far this week ............... had a lovely day yesterday, it was my sister's birthday so we went out for lunch which we hadn't done for a long time so we had a good chat.

Half term started today ........... made fudge with my daughter, she wants to take it to the Youth Club Treasue Hunt tonight ..... other daughter is writing a story!

Doing bits and pieces for work that need sorting and making pieces for Christmas sales .......... nice new silver pendant taking shape!

Also organising a jewellery party at the Borough in Dalton Square Lancaster on November 15th.

16 October 2007

Full of cold today but plodding on as I have to deliver some jewellery to Gallery H in Arnside and I also need to make, make, make more pieces.

Done a bit of cleaning, trying to keep on top of dirt! Where does it all come from?

Going to bake a pie for a neigbour and do some shopping for a friend who is ill ......... sort children out later, its Guides tonight!

Oneof those days ...........

15 October 2007

How time flies ......... feel quite bad that I haven't been keeping up to date with the blog but there just seems to be so many other things to get done. Priority has been the jewellery, getting more silver making, hall marking and getting it out there .... even amidst the postal strike!

The exhibition in London at Spencer Coleman Fine Arts is going well. I have some more galleries to supply now, one being Gallery H in Arnside and Ribby Hall in Kirkham. I am now getting on with 'christmas stock' so hopefully I will have enough to supply everybody.

We watched the rugby on Saturday along with most of the country! Not a terribly exciting game but a deserved victory .......... can't wait for the final now!

My eldest went to the Big Gig on Saturday (a Guides thing) and she saw Natasha Bedingfield, Kate Nash, the Hussiers, McFly, Robyn, Amerie amongst others, she was on a real high when she got home ............ and I was quite jealous, wouldn't have minded going myself!

Well lets hope I make a better effort at keeping up to date this week! I wll try, promise.
