#reverb12 Day 3 What do I really wish for

This is a deep question from Kat.

Imagine a scenario where you only had one year left to live. What is one thing 

that you really wish to do that you just haven't had the chance to accomplish yet?

I would like to add: what steps could you take (however small) to ensure 

that you accomplish this thing in 2013?

Another difficult question, by I guess my answer is very cliché. I want to travel to places I have been to before and a few I haven't been to. 

London:  

There are still so many museums I haven't visited as yet. It is true you would need a lifetime to explore London. 

New York:

I just want to visit all the museums and shops.  Hyde Park looks amazing. And I want to do the Sex and the City tour, if it's still going. 

Paris:

I have been to Paris for only 2 1/2 days with my husband and 3 year old.  Our son had a melt down just outside the Louvre, so we didn't have the pleasure of going in.  One day we will go back. 

Italy:

I personally don't have a yearning to visit Italy.  However my mother, husband and son want to go. So I wish I could take them there. 

Monument Valley:

I'm not sure about this place, but every time I see an image of those amazing rock formations, I'm just so drawn to them.  It's like I have to be there. 

So how would I accomplish this, probably sell the house.

2011 - January Rewind

The gang over at the Creative Collective have invited people to take up the challenge of the 'January Rewind'. It's aim to reflect over what happened in 2011 and think about the highs and lows. So lets go back down memory lane.



THE HIGHLIGHTS
January
5th - I crocheted my very first amigurumi soft toy. I crocheted this little robot dog for my mum. She now carries it in her bag for good luck.
30th - I attended my first Zentangle TM lesson. Conducted by one of the 2 official Zentangle teachers. I found the whole experience relaxing, fun and very inspiring. I still use Zentangle to help me get to sleep.

March
4th - My products were excepted into a retail shop. Seeing my products in the Curious Oyster Shoppe was such a super boost.
30th - Visiting the Melbourne Finders Keepers. Once again I find it inspirational, fun and there are too many goodies that I want!

July
3rd - The Hottie Challenge. Even though I didn't participate, it was inspirational and amazing. I so hope there is one this year. I may even take up the challenge!!

August
4th - I had this old design, so I thought I would check out what it would be like on fabric. Pretty cool, thanks to Spoonflower
9th - By this happening, I fulfilled a bucket list dream. Getting my product printed in a magazine! Thank you Paperunway!

September
The last highlight was going to England, seeing my mother-in-law and sweet friend Sam.

THE LOW-LIGHTS
December
My mother-in-law died. Hubby and I had to rush back to England, to organise funeral and pack the house up. A very stressful and sad time.
Christmas Day - The storms that hit Melbourne. We were ok, air-con flooded. But we came out of it easily, compared to some people.

Overall I look at 2011. It had its high times, but I didn't achieve everything I wanted to do, for many reasons. Lets hope 2012 is better.

Why don't you join the January Rewind too.

A little quiet

Queenstown, New Zealand

I'm a little quiet at the moment, I'm doing some casual work at the moment, so I'm not at my desk as much. So I will be back. :-) In the meantime, enjoy this photo I took. I really enjoyed walking down this track.

Blogtoberfest - Day 15 - Chile

It's been wonderful news about the 33 Chilean Miners being rescued. While they were being rescued yesterday I was thinking that I really don't know much about Chile, except thinking that the landscape was all desert. Wasn't I wrong. Isn't this so pretty....
