The Great Divide
The great divide between what makes the day good, and what makes it bad…
Things that made today good:
* I put an iPad case onto etsy, so my shop is starting to fill up nicely.
* Kim, Sarah and Naomi came round to craft
* I got to sit down and quilt
* I made a yummy healthy salad for dinner
* The house is somewhat cleaner then it was yesterday- this makes me feel good.
Things that made today bad:
* Fixing mistakes at work that shouldn’t have been made
* The fact that those were someone else’s mistakes
* Worrying about how my staff are going, and how I don’t have time to supervise them like I need too.
* People who put unnecessary spaces into sentences and words.
* People who store the same document in like 5 different folder locations. You think you’ve edited the document, but then you go and find it again in another folder!
Lucky for me the good things happened at the end of the day, so I am going to sleep with happy thoughts and a smile on my face. Oh, and a belly full of honey joys! How are your good and bad things ballancing up?
What’s On Your Fridge?
This week I’m playing along with My Place and Yours hosted over at Hello Owl…

Our fridge is mostly covered in photos, which is pretty much just life every other part of our house and life! I’ve been scanning old photos, so there is one up there of me and my mum when I was one day old.
There is something really beautiful about scanning old photos. I kind of like how they always seem to have a really wide frame, and the people seem to be far away. The light is always interesting too…
