That was my status update on facebook VERY late last night. There is a lot of thinking, deciding, stressing, wishing and wondering going on in our lives at the moment. All of this is consuming my thoughts most of the time. With this in mind, I am going to take a little blog break for about a week.
And while I am here 'keeping it real', I thought I would share a photo with you that I took yesterday afternoon of my sewing room. I have been chained to this room for about 16 hours a day for the last few days working on something that I can't share until next year! I wish I could, so for now, I will share my mess. This photo pretty much sums up my mind at the moment too!!
Off to think and clean up my messy room - maybe the cleaning will bring some clarity to my mind too, who knows.
Back next week x Janelle
Janelle,
I was getting worried about you (even though I see you on facebook). You have been a busy vegemite. Can't wait to see your up coming projects. They are always beautiful.

Time fore a tidy up, Nellie. I'm sure it will clear your mind. I'm thinking of you and Kim as you get ready for the retreat. I wish I was able to come but it's a busy time of the year for me. Good luck with it all and know that you are in my thoughts.

Dear Janelle,
Put your feet up rest and reflect. Just remember whatever is stressing you now will pass. the most important thing is your health first, without it you cannot focus on the ones you love and they will worry about you. Hope all is well God Bless
