    £112 worth of alterations done since 7.30
    So I think I can safely say I am happy with that.
    But achey but not surprised considering I have been sewing for over 10 hours.
    Up early and out in time because I have the radio interview with the BBC
    Who would have thought. I really hope I don't stutter and mumble I really don't like public speaking!
    When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.

    Mooloo When you first started the shop I remember watching your guided tour of Mooloos . You have a lovely warm and friendly way of speaking and I'm sure that will come over with the BBC tomorrow .


    I've been trying to catch up and am so pleased to see in spite of all the happenings of the last few weeks you've pulled on the BGKs and are sounding much more like yourself with new determination and purpose . Be proud , you've made big decisions towards the future at a time of dreadful stress , I wish you all the luck in the world .

    Well I am awake!
    I have briefly tried to visualise a positive day. Running through it all smoothly, but boy I am nervous.
    I didn't manage to do all the work I brought home, so I will still have to be taking work back and forth this week.
    I should be finished with the radio and back to work at my normal time.
    But I woke an hour earlier so that my joints will be working and I don't feel rushed.
    I can do this!
    Well I hope I can.

    Good luck mooloo. Your creations on FB were fab :j.
    A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

    Wow what a morning!
    Dgd sulking as usual because she was not allowed to bunk off school and come with me.
    The radio was interesting but very brief by the time I was on.
    Then I have been busy in the shop. The designer has been in 3 Times this morning. I charged him £150 for my work. I don't think he really wanted to pay immediately but I wasn't going to be fobbed off.
    The shop has been busy with people in and out all day and I have hardly managed to Sew much at all.
    The designer brought more fabric but he is expecting silly things to be done and ready in only 4 weeks time. He wants 60 t shirts made and yet he hasn't supplied any neck ribbing at all, and the fabric he has given me is not going to be making 60 t shirts by a mile.
    I can work wonders but miracles take longer than that.
    I have stopped to eat my lunch and have a cup of tea.
    After I am fed and watered I will hopefully work my magic on some more things.
    When I die I will know that I have lived, loved, mattered and made a difference, even if in a small way.

    Don't let the designer get away with anything Mooloo - in fact if he is expecting you to make 60 tee shirts, I would be asking for a deposit from him - whilst you are working on his stuff, you won't be able to work on anything else!
