Happy New Year!

Hello lovelies. I had a lovely night showing in the New Year sewing sequins onto a costume while half watching Firefly with friends, drinking cups of strong tea and eating watermelon. It was peaceful, fun, affinity was high and I love spending time with friends in that way. The most relaxed I have felt outside my own home in forever.
I have nothing else to share really - I am having a bit of a social media rethink -  my soul is tired of broadcast and declaration, and craves communication, and the difference between the two is becoming more and more unbearable to me. Before I get so fed up I can't bear another minute of it all, I am working on how to be a better communicator myself, and how to tune this thing so I hear the kind of stuff I want to listen. Less memes, less cats, less melodrama, more human to human engagement.

And so on that rather surreal note, Happy New Year. May 2016 bring new pastures, plans and projects. xo

  2. I understand where you're coming from! There's nothing like satisfying interaction with Real Humans to throw us off social media.
    Happy New Year to you. Here's to more fantastic projects and get-togethers in 2016!

    1. But the good of it is meeting fabulous people like yourself. Which would never otherwise happen. So, we strive for balance xo

    2. Happy New Year and Amen to your last sentence. Social media can be so shallow and it's lack of empathy is really affecting society. That is one of the reasons I started the Wednesday Words on the blog, so we could actually communicate with each other. I know you will work this out wonderfully.
