Mea Culpa

It's a cliché I know but where did the time go? So many things have changed in my life and so many haven't. I have a new "career" as a caterer and function co-ordinator. A new business in a new old house that for the past 12 months has sucked up all my time. That's it above and below. The Ipswich Club. More to come on thet soon I promise.

Not much has happened around home. Maintenance on an old house often sucks away the funds needed for the pretty stuff. Just today we are getting new guttering and downpipes to stop water flooding down the walls in the kitchen and breezeway during torrential downpours (and haven't there been a lot of those around here lately). Those of you with old houses will know that there will often be an initial rush to get the basics done then a time of settling in, of getting used to the old girl, of hatching plans and dreaming. Perhaps I fell asleep because it still seems to be all dreams and not much action. Maybe this year :)

So my apologies for neglecting this page and you. Here's to a new year and here's to breathing new life into Jo's Page.

...a side of my house your probably haven't seen with shonky guttering and drainage. You can see how the house is half buried into the slope.

I have been checking back regularly Jo. As possibly many others. Fantastic to see you back. No pressure tho! 2014 seems to have been the year of the guttering in South East Qld. Perhaps 2011 shattered them all to pieces.

Hi Paddy! Nice to see you're still out there :)

I've branched out into my own business too Jo, and loving it. 2015 will be the year I get organised. BAS, banking, invoicing. What a nightmare for the creatively inclined!
