I’ll tell you this: it isn’t easy to juggle a couple of things at the same time! I’ve been pretty busy for the past few weeks, what with Mr T’s parents coming over, and with a couple of other obligations in the way, our weekends didn’t really belong to us!

But good things first — Marichelle just started a blog about handmade lovelies on the Hearthandmade blog, and things are looking very swell — I love the design of her blogs, and this is no different. Go Marichelle!

I bought myself a Moleskine diary for 2008, and because it’s almost April, I got it at 50% off. Well, the year is almost one-third over, but I got it anyway because it’s going to document my journey come April/May, so to me, it’s a sort of a new beginning to me anyway. :)

The PikaPackage project on Pikaland is doing very well, with a fantastic line-up of artists so far, so I’m very grateful for the support and encouragement I’ve received.

I have a lot of emails to reply, but thank you so much to everyone who left a comment on my last post on IF. Thanks for sharing your stories! I’ve also made some new friends along the way — it’s a fantastic feeling to have kindred spirits who knows what you’re going through.

And I’ve been thinking of what I’m going to do with my home. It’s still not officially ours yet, so I’m just scouting around for inspirations. Holly’s flickr page is especially wonderful!

1. West Elm 2007—Look@that lamp!, 2. so open and interesting for dining with friends, 3. AB Chao’s Hip Lousiana Abode, 4. Urban Outfitters, 5. I like those green ceiling beams, 6. House to Home, 7. House to Home, 8. An Angel at my Table, 9. Liza Giles {designer}

And here’s Mr T with Cookie – she adores him to bits. And for those who wrote in with well wishes for her, you’ll be interested to know that she has changed a little since her ordeal — she’s much more affectionate and brave too.
