Well that went well, it's now a year on and not even one attempt at trying to blog. Last year was a good year for me. No more cancer treatment and luckily so far no recurrence, all is good in the world of cancer for me at the moment at least. I have slotted back into work and am managing to keep up with everything since having my work load decreased. I am even starting to explore the new accounting package that we have in order to understand it a bit better, it's fun when I get the chance.
My husband who went back to uni in 2015 to get his teaching degree at the age of 54 has had great success with CRT work last year. Unfortunately he still hasn't managed to get a 'permanent' role but he has some wonderful references and has secured a position close to home for the first term of 2017. It makes a big difference to the holiday break knowing that there will be the extra money coming in in the New Year.
Last year I dabbled in some different things and this year I want to take it further. I started making my own yoghurt and ricotta, yummy and easy and I tried my hand at some card making. I love it and find it relaxing although I am not very imaginative or crafty so my cards tend to be simple, another thing I aim to work on this year. I was lucky enough to have a heap of card making supplies and equipment gifted to me and that has been a great help. I continued to make my own soap and tried my hand at some different colours and scents. It wasn't overly successful but I shall try again and I do like the new recipe which includes palm oil (sustainable) so not as gluggy as the recipe I have used up to now.
So all up a good year and high hopes for an even better one as my energy returns and I become more confident.
Cheerio for now and hopefully it won't be another year before I blog.
