Why so long????

I just can't believe it's been so long since my last post -  there are just not enough hours in the day to keep up-to-date with twitter, facebook and this blog as well as all the normal day-to-day stuff that goes on!!   Really, i should do little and often rather than building it up in my head as this thing that is going to take ages to write, has to be perfect and no-one is ever going to read  or be interested in anyway!

So what have I been up to over the past couple of months?   My partner and I have had a couple of trips away; we went to Cornwall at the beginning of the summer and then the week before last we had a week away in the Yorkshire Dales.   The weather wasn't amazing but it was really nice to be somewhere different and out in the open air for a few days.  There are some very beautiful places around that part of the country - as well as a lot of cows and sheep.

And as an ode to that I have been working on a new sheep design! - no pictures yet i'm afraid as it is in the very early stages of production.   But before work started on that a couple of cats have made an appearance (well done Jess you guessed correctly - gold star on it's way):

(photos to follow - computer playing up!)

So, i had better get back to the practical stuff or the sheep will never take shape!   I have had a couple of good ideas about how to progress with my work, as a whole, so i just need to do some research and get some of my motivation back - any ideas on motivation greatfully received.  :-)
