Great post mmtwgr..I am feeling exactly like that, have too many boxes in the bedroom that I cant shift but keep reminding myself that I can do carboots and toy sales nearer Xmas, just coz they are not selling now doesnt mean they wont ever.
Sice joiningthis thread I have learnt so much about doing stuff to my website myself which will save me a fortune and have had the motivation and kicks up the bum to finish one new collection and start another,neither of which I would have ever done otherwise..no..really :-/
So thankyou so much all of you Dribblers

- registering s/e isn't actually scary
- I can follow a dream and build it up to a business

evening all!

ok, FINALLY going to get my thumb out and get these quillows going. If there is anyone that pm'd me a few weeks ago with interst to please do the same thing and let me know for sure, am hoping to have the new lead for the sewing machine within the next couple of weeks and then will be doing a search for appropriate material, batting etc. I now have a place and the support to work on and make them and cant wait! and despite everything else that is currently happening in my life I am incredibly happy. Just did not think this would ever be possible. Thank you to everyone who has really supported my hair brained scheme lol and if anyone wants more details about the quillows and exactly how I can personalise them please just pm me.........

right off to find choccie or some more white wine!

love and hugs xx

I've learnt that it doesn't have to be my make my heart sing idea and that other ideas can move me forward BUT at the same time its got to at least hum melodiously to me or I will completely resist it after the initial flurry.
That I really hate ebaying except for maybe dvds.
That I haven't made many mistakes yet so I haven't tried much yet.
That it is possible to have a supportive group of diverse people inspiring each other online and that I can contribute to that.
That it is not so much about the money but how living my life feels. That I need a picture or feeling of how I want that to be in my mind to move me forward.
That I can have some of that feeling now if I adjust my thoughts a little and that it is that feeling/ image of the future that needs to guide my choices and actions rather than the figure of 10k.
That amazing things come from chatting.
Thats all for now

Munchki - its so nice to hear you feeling like this especially after thinking it would be impossible and so glad you have a place and support and enough space to do your sewing as well. Really happy for you.

Last week did not go as I had hoped on lots of fronts, but hopefully mon or tues will put me out of my wondering lol

As for the rest, well life is incredible and funny how when you are really not looking something amazing drops in your lap so to speak....so even the car fiasco was NOT a bad thing.

I really believe that everything in life happens for a reason just that perhaps we are not meant to know the reason but maybe feel the reason or even more so just accept it.....if we choose to see it not just look at it!

I 'second' what the thread Guru (Jo) said! That's spot on as always.
