I'm Back...

Yes... I have actually been back a week, but with a minor case of jetlag - not so much the sleepy part but a headache. I had a wonderful time... well - probably the best time of my life... now dont' get me wrong - there were times I wanted to kill every single on that bus... but for the most part they were a great group and my TM Flip (Janelle) and the (extremely hot South African) driver Jaime were awesome.

I am going to be writing more about my trip on my travel blog... I haven't really started yet but I will be working on it gradually. I also have 1800 or so pictures - I will post that link as well, but I am working on tagging them and such.

Now... for the rest of my life. I have decided to apply for a British passport (I can do that because my father - who I haven't talked to in 16 or so years - but that doesn't matter apparently - the fact that I am his legitimate child is what counts)... with the possibility of moving to Northern England or Scotland to work and live. The bonus is that with a UK passport I wouldn't have to jump through any of the hoops like visas, etc. I would be good to go as soon as I stepped off the plane to find work.

That aside (and that probably won't happen until next year sometime) I have decided to scale back on my crafting. Well - I have already scaled back to the point that I have hardly made anything since I moved to Calgary, but I have still been buying crap left, right and centre. So I have put myself on a purchace moratorium and I can only use stuff that I have.

That and I have decided to sell off some of my stuff on eBay - mostly Stampin' Up stuff... mostly used (but gently)... I will post that link when the time comes.

Other than that I am back to purging stuff from my apartment (which is a whole other story - while I was gone they sold my building and now it the the 2nd of the month and I have no idea where to pay my rent... I have ranted enough about this to my poor co-workers so I will just leave it be now)... so far two bags of clothes and a bunch of crap is leaving my house (including a bunch of blankets, etc. for Megan and the kitties at the SPCA)... I will be posting some of the better stuff on Kijiji, Craigslist and eBay.

Enough about me... I'd better get back to work!
