Good heavens, i haven't posted since January!
It's not that i haven't seen lots of funny news stories and pictures I just haven't seemed to have the time to get up here and get posting.
It doesn't help that i have been utterly obsessed with my silversmithing course, so much so that i have signed on for a new one before the first one was over. My head is bursting with ideas and i resent everything that takes me away from it.
My Bellydance obsession was also revived by last week's festival in Saltair. I always leave with lots of ideas for costumes, jewellery and paintings...and for dances, of course.
I had an amazing weekend with some fabulous teachers, Khaled, Michelle Pender, Lulu Sabongi and Lorna Gow, did a little light shopping, ate wonderful curry and generally had an excellent time.
This last week however has been less than fun. In order to get our four days off we basically needed to do most of the paper on Wednesday and Thursday. Not fun.
Now we are meant to be going to Warwick for the first re-enactment in ages and i just can't muster any enthusiasm for it. It's gray, wet and I am full of cold and the idea of camping is just not doing it for me right now, assignations under cedar trees not withstanding.
Re-enactment is a great and varied hobby, i just have neither the time nor the money for it at the moment.
Oh well, off to do some washing up and grump at Dave :-)
