First time since I opened my own business 13 years ago that I have had to cancel a class/workshop due to poor response !!!! ... BUT 2 weeks away from my next workshop and only 2 people have booked and paid ... although about 15 people sent me their reasons for NOT being able to attend !!!
Maybe I chose the wrong date ... or maybe people are still struggling to get over the over-spend of Christmas ??? or MAYBE everybody is just sooo busy so early in the year ... but anyway I have CANCELLED my February Workshop ;( ... (sad face)
And there I was all ready for this class ... projects done & dusted ...
"BUT I WILL NOT GIVE UP" ... I've never quit on anything (except for a diet !!!) and I don't intend to quit on this ... well not after just 1 poor response ...
All I'll do is pick another date later in the year ... gonna have to be MUCH later, due to my hectic 'rugby' life from the 10th March ... and use these same projects and go from there !!!
BUT here I am today ... supposed to be sorting out my 'CRAP' in my room .... oops I mean stuff ... and instead I'm trolling the net ... doing anything but what I'm supposed to do (P.of P. woke this am again) ... and voila ... between 1 site and another ... I get me another epiphany ...and I find myself jotting down ideas,doing some drawings and sketches and I'm planning my next THANG !!!! SO I've still got IT ... whatever IT is !!! bwahahahaha
Sorry am I rambling here ??? I get like this when the 'creative' brain is at work !!!
Oooh ...ohhh ... oh ... but there is a good thing come from all of this ... because I've cancelled I'm now free on the weekend of 25th February .. so yesterday I booked tickets for myself, SON-shine and the twisted sisters to go to the 80's Revival Concert at Kings Park Stadium !!! How awesome is that ??? One of my 'school girl' crushes is going to be there ... Midge Ure from Ultravox !!!! I followed that band around the UK like a true Groupie !!!! (I was going to marry that man !!!) ... awesomeness or what ???
OK last week ... I nearly did QUIT on something ... the damned job !!! It nearly got to me ... yes ... I almost lost the plot !!! Between the 15 odd bosses I seem to have and the crappy attitude of some of the other folk in the building !!! Doesn't matter about the 600 odd muffins I baked for them this week, even without electricity ... and went and 'used' BFF June's oven to finish baking them, was up at 3am making fresh muffins for their damned function ... NO ... none of that matters ... when they want to drop a ton of crap on you, for doing something that no-body bothered to tell you, you shouldn't do !!! Apparently I was supposed to ASSUME it ... well all I know about ASSUME is it makes an ASS out of U and ME !!! (seems it is most definitely every MAN/WOMAN & CHILD for themselves!!!)
BUT STOP ! NO ... this is the year of POSITIVITY and I WILL NOT LET THEM GET TO ME ... however I have now realised WHY a lot of the people at work are soooo cynical:
cyn·i·cal /ˈsɪnɪkəl/ Show Spelled[sin-i-kuhl] Adjective

And that is all I'm going to say on the matter ... well for this week anyway ....bwahahahaha ...
I actually ... for the first time in a long time (oooh there's another 1st !!!) said TGIF ... on Friday ... and I'm happy to have the weekend to pull myself towards myself !!!
It was MUM's birthday on Friday so the twisted sisters came and joined us for Pizza's and we had a really great evening ... then we've had Penny & Lawrence join us for a Birthday breakfast for mum ... so all in all the weekend has been a good one !!!!
All be it the weather has turned crappy ... it was jeans, t-shirt, jacket AND closed in shoes yesterday ... last night the winter slippers were on and today it's warm clothes SUNDAY !!!!
And on a SAD note ... R.I.P Whitney Houston ... another huge loss to the music industry ... all because of damned drugs and substance abuse !!!
