Changes are a happening...

Hello Hello,Wow it has been a REALLY long time since I have written!  Well I may as well start with the obvious... my blog has had a wee make over, the name of my blog has changed (the address will as well soon but I didn't want to freak people out right away), and I am setting up shop properly too. As you can probably tell there are some things I am still working on, it has been a bit of a mission for me because computers/ technology and I don't really mix well!  Oh like for example can anybody tell me how to shrink my header picture?  I love the underwear but they really don't need to be life size on my screen!  Ok that's business out of the way, now for what I've been up to all this time...

- Firstly I would like to thank you all very much for your sweet messages regarding out dog Lucy.  She put up a really good fight and tried to stay with us for as long as she could but the cancer eventually got the best of her and she passed away in her basket one morning.  Naturally we were all devastated, but I suppose life goes on.  She will certainly never be forgotten.

- I have FINALLY finished university and couldn't be happier about it!  The last year and a half has been more work than I ever counted on and I have no intention of doing it again anytime soon.  On the upside however I am now a qualified translator.


- I went to Tonga for a week with my family which was beautiful and so badly needed!

- I'm moving out of my house.

I have only been living here for a year and a half, and while it has been great to live smack in the middle of town and be able to walk everywhere, I'm so ready for uninterrupted sleep!  So I will be house sitting at my mums for a month and then moving in with my boyfriend until we find somewhere else.  His place is currently and ex party house/ bachelor pad so I am a little nervous but I plan to whip both the boys and the house into shape!


-I have still been visiting second hand shops much too frequently which has led to more collecting and hoarding! 

Well there are just so many other exciting things happening and starting to happen and while I would love to share them all with you now I better leave something for another day.  After feeling so blah for the last couple of months it's nice to have such a turn around and be so excited about life again now!
I hope you have all been good.  I have been following blogs a little bit but not as much as I would have liked
so I will make more of an effort to do that.

  2. I always make my header smaller by making the picture smaller and then just reuploading it. You should be able to do so with most free editing software. Just change the pixel height and width, although it may take some experimenting so get the perfect size. Hope that helped :)
