Blue monday venting

Just writing bits and pieces here. I'm having a hard day. It's very hot and I'm mega jet lagged after three hours sleep. I had all my medication stolen in Rome so I'm mega weepy. My dear sweet Flossie the bunny died a few days ago when I was overseas and a student I know threw himself under a train outside the university last week. The coroner's report on david's death should be finished next week in the UK.

Sometimes I feel like death is surrounding me. I'm trying to cope as best I can.

Chris remains in the UK until his (intention to marry) visa comes through-hopefully only a few more days.

I'll write something decent and articulate once I put some pics up as it makes it easier to write descriptively and put things into context.

Going to see Juno tonight with some friends and have some drinks. Should cheer me up as I'm feeling lonely.

On the plus I bought some great things on holidays, met some amazing people and saw some amazing sites. And I've got a transfer to work at another campus which is more arty and creative. A new shop in Singapore is considering stocking Polka Dot Rabbit stuff, and another has asked for more jewellery! Also have a couple more market plans and I'm thinking of starting a directory of underground markets in Melbourne

Crafty things I need to buy:

brooch backs
earring backs

Things to make:

• earrings
• rings
• belts
• robin brooches
• ladies
• kitties
• baby tops

I have a few small business ideas and am thinking of doing a course on running your own cafe. I also will need to start organising the crafting workshop I'm running this year
