In the words of the song.......

 "Pick yourself up, dust yourself off, start all over again......."

Despite the massive disappointment of having to miss KDF yesterday *stifled sob* I'm trying to look on the bright side.

*tumbleweed rolls past*

Yes.

Well.

*clears throat*

Errm

*gazes out of window at SNOW FREE scene*

Ah yes.  Of course.  

How silly of me.

The snow and ice have all gone. Apart from a few smallish mounds which on Friday were shovelled snowdrifts piled 5 feet high.

*sigh*

It's difficult to believe that we had well over a foot of snow less than 48 hours ago.  Even the magnificently gnarled 4 foot long icicle which was hanging from our gutter has disappeared.  If I didn't know better I would think that the whole episode was some dreadful nightmare.

Oh well..... worse things happen at sea.

Apparently.

So today I going to put it all behind me and BE POSITIVE.

Thanks to our *SALE* (which doesn't end till midnight tomorrow!) we have some lovely orders to package.  And thanks to the thaw they can start going out tomorrow. 

Yay!

Also our next big fair (The Thame Doll's House & Miniatures Fair - Saturday 19 February 2011) won't be so stressful as we won't need to start from scratch rebuilding our stock.

Double yay!

Which gives me time and space to work on neglected projects and do some serious research and development on some of the ideas in my notebook.


Multiple yay!


See...... things are looking up already.
