Wanted to wish everyone a Happy New Year! I hope you all had a fab night on Friday! I did the usual and stayed home (I'm never invited to parties :p) but I got to watch the London fireworks display on BBC1 lol Thank you to everyone that has messaged me with New Year wishes - I really appreciate it! :D
So, what's going to be happening this year? Well, I have some news - I got a trainee job!! *Shock-Horror!* You may remember back in May my post about Career Choices, where I talked about feeling better and maybe persuing a career as a Dental Nurse? Well, in September I applied to Kings College Hospital in London for a trainee position, and after 2 rounds of tests and an awkward interview infront of a panel, I got an email on my birthday to say I had got the position! I know, it's weird, right?! I still have to go for the medical (should be fun) but as long as it's all fine I should be starting in June :D
This is where I break the bad news. Because this is a full time job and a 2 year college course all rolled into one, I am gonna have hardly any time to do anything, let alone crochet :( So if I decide to go ahead and accept the job, I'm afraid you won't be seeing much of me from June onwards :( I'll still post on here when I can, as I'd hate to lose contact with the fab people I've met through doing this. I just won't be doing much crocheting and stuff. I'll miss it! :'(
So that's mainly whats happening with me; I hope everyone else has a great year lined up, and that it's better than 2010 if you had a crappy one like mine mostly was :)
Oh, and before I go - Super Monstie has been featured in a fab Treasury on Etsy! Thank you so much to CLScraftcreations for including him! :D You can view all the cuteness here :)

ReplyDeleteThank you! You too! :D
ReplyDeleteI've got your blog 'favourited' but for ages now when I click on the link your 23rd December post has been coming up so I missed this!! Congrats on the job offer - that's great news :-) Glad that things are looking up for you - I know loads of people who had a crap year last year - myself included, but so far so good this year ;-) Have you closed your Etsy shop permanently or is it just a temporary thing?
ReplyDeleteBest Wishes, Vicky :-D
Hey!
ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind words!! I have only closed for a little while, I need a break from my computer (as you can tell as I haven't been updating this blog lol!). If there was anything in particular you wanted from my shop let me know and I can open it for you :) Although I am no longer taking custom orders :(
Aww, thanx - it was the cute little Sam Bear with hat :-) I don't blame you for putting the custom orders on hold - I find that it takes the enjoyment out of 'making' when there's a time limit and expectations attached... the thing that I love about sitting down with my big basket of wool and stuff, is that I never know what will happen...
