Snarks and Ladders

Well, in all the time I haven’t been blogging (yeah, yeah, I know), some pretty major stuff has been happening.

Mainly, as the title says… getting myself into an enormous pile of debt (a.k.a. getting a god diggity damn mortgage).

So, you can all be forewarned.  You have about 3 weeks before this turns into a ‘check out how I painted this room!  Look at my plants!’ type blog while we fix a few things around the new place.

I also got myself a new car, but that’s hardly exciting in comparison.

In other news, I’ve basically been working crazy ass 12-14 hour days – which will look fantastic when I claim my home office hours on my tax return! – been looking at other money making opportunities (because apparently houses don’t pay for themselves.  Why did no one tell me this?), doing a bit of idle photography on the side, and reading through my new stack of feminist books (while also doing all the housework – isn’t that hilarious?)

So, um, yeah.  Fun times!

All I want now that I am not allowed to have is either a border collie puppy or a baby.

Is that too much too ask?

(Apparently – yes).

I also had some success at the local Show (huzzah!), winning best bread, best cake, second in the plain scones, and Best Cat and second in the Medium Dog or Bitch category.  Winning stuff is kinda cool!

Apart from that, well… not much else is new.  But, as always, promise to talk more when I have time (in other words, I’ll see you all in 3 months or so…)
