I'm back! Nope, I haven't really gone anywhere, I just got too busy because of:
a) back-to-back deadlines.
b) I was packing lots and lots...and lots of stuff.
c) I moved out of the house I lived in for five years and into a tiny 45 sq meter condo.
d) I was unpacking lots and lots of stuff + moving and pushing and pulling stuff around trying to make this new little place I call home look...well... like home. (I still need to do and buy so many things!!! I need shelves and closet space!! a new bed, fridge, washing machine...)
e) trying to squeeze in some more work (I'm in semi-panic mode now because of quickly depleting resources and upcoming bills).
f) battling fatigue...bone on bone weariness from the stress of it all - I slept the whole day last Wednesday, I think it all just sank in. All that adrenaline just came crashing down and my body just could not make it through the day - Yes, I hear you!! REST. And so I did.
And I am thankful. For everything that has gone and for everything that is coming my way. God truly is good.
I'm feeling much better today and trying to catch up on everything I need to cross off my list. Don't you love crossing things off your list? I do. It gives me such a sense of accomplishment. My version of a list now is to write down the things I need to do, my appointments, deliverables on small post-it notes and tape them to my mirror. Every time I finish something, I take the post-it note down and throw it away. I find it very, very helpful.

On another note, I have got some cute little surprises for you to download :) My dearest Rachelle of
Rachness Designs (Doodelle) has come out with two adorable kits at
MScraps. Got to play around with them below:
Creative Soul (S4H/S4O) released last August 13 is a kit truly after my own heart, all those doodle goodies in one kit, ah!!!! I thought it fitting to create a layout with myself in it :) The photos were taken during the Wedding Summit event last June. I designed the cake which was executed by Cake Concepts and the tarp I was sitting on is based on a drawing I did for the Thunderbird Resorts booth.
And here is my Creative Soul Quick Page freebie for you :)
