Shimelle hosts a blog link with our top tens, bottom tens, whatever 10 things strikes us. I haven't joined in since I was posting my 10 things I was looking forward to in the summer. So now, 10 things that I am looking forward to in this new season. 1. Candle Light, Lamp Light. I honestly cannot decide whether I like the clocks going back or forward most, I truly love both and I am so fortunate that I live in such a seasonal country, indeed, how could I love the Spring so much without the depths of Winter to come from? I don't need to choose, I have both. So as I go about like Wee Willie Winkie, lamp-lighting all over the house (indulging the electricity bill), I feel my cosy inner-light going on as well. I want stew, thick socks and warm drinks. This is the illustration I remember from my childhood, so lovely to see it. 2. Autumn Clothes. It doesn't really matter what is in fashion; boots, skirts, cardigans are pretty much ok any year I think. The fact that I am a little on the large side *snort* also means that I welcome layers and covers wholeheartedly. No more sartorial school run dramas.....cardigan, hat, boots, mascara (maybe). Simple. 3. Cybercrop on UKS. I am indebted to the UKS Monopoly CC as it was the one that got me out from lurking, joining in and then trying to find a team and finding not only some scrapping inspiration but some very best friends in that team, The Bijoux Belles :) I am a Detective and looking forward to it. 4. Halloween. Bubble, Bubble, Toil & Trouble and all that....The pumpkin came home yesterday and my young man was taken with it, he even wanted his photo taken with it....and he never, ever, ever, ever, ever wants me to take his photo. 5. Being part-time. I know I have banged/harped/bored on about this, but the difference it has made to me is immense and I am so looking forward to trying to make it work for us all. I have been focusing the extra time on the kids to start with, but I am also determined to take the time for me as well, running, swimming, crafting, blogging, setting up a crop etc etc. 6. Swimming. I am looking forward to it, pity the poor unfortunates that happen to go at the same time as me. Not only am I not swimsuit ready, I have bought prescription goggles. Really. Now I have a question, do I carry the goggles nonchalantly as I attempt to get from the dressing room to the pool without being able to see or should I put them on and just walk out with them on. Please do leave me your answer... 7. Theatre visits. Ali and I are off to the Welsh Ballet's interpretation of Roald Dahl's Red Riding Hood. Alex and I still screech with laughter at that one and as a dance, I think we will love it. You can see a bit more about it here. Louis and I are off to a performance of Michael Morpurgo's Farm Boy. We haven't read it yet, so must do that, or should we? You can see a bit more about it here. I found out just yesterday, as my mum is researching the family tree, that Michael Morpurgo's father-in-law was Sir Allen Lane the founder of Penguin Books, who we also found out is my first cousin three times (I think three times) removed. I am very excited by that news :) 8. New Class & JYC from Shimelle. I have just enjoyed doing LSNED and I love classes, especially Shimelle's so this is looking good to me on the horizon. I am really looking forward to being part-time to really soak up the season this year and not be in such a mad rush the whole time...and exhausted by Christmas Eve. 9. Handmade Holiday & Economising. Again with the part-time! But I would like to make a lot of the gifts and cards this year and also have already enjoyed paring down the material things that I buy, with little thought, to things I really need. It has already made me a lot less wasteful. Erm, I might have stocked up on the paper lines that I want before the salary dropped. Priorities ladies, priorities. 10. Lighting The Lights. My favourite event of the year in our town, we are a large coastal town, but small enough that you know so many faces and it feels as though the whole town turfs out to watch all the children from all the schools parade through the high street with their lanterns and then the lights turned on with fireworks. A lovely start to the Christmas season. Now I won't mention Christmas again until November.

Emotions play an important role in the way we communicate at home and work. It’s the way you feel, more than the way you think, that motivates you to communicate or to make decisions. The way you react to emotionally driven, nonverbal cues affects both how you understand other people and how they understand you. If you are out of touch with your feelings, and don’t understand how you feel or why you feel that way, you’ll have a hard time communicating your feelings and needs to others. This can result in frustration, misunderstandings, and conflict. When you don’t address what’s really bothering you, you often become embroiled in petty squabbles instead—arguing with your spouse about how the towels should be hung, for example, or with a coworker about whose turn it is to restock the copier. Emotional awareness provides you the tools needed for understanding both yourself and other people, and the real messages they are communicating to you. Although knowing your own feelings may seem simple, many people ignore or try to sedate strong emotions like anger, sadness, and fear. But your ability to communicate depends on being connected to these feelings. If you’re afraid of strong emotions or if you insist on communicating only on a rational level, it will impair your ability to fully understand others, creatively problem solve, resolve conflicts, or build an affectionate connection with someone.

When you get up and go to work each morning, do you look forward to your trip to the office? Or are you dreading the day from the moment you wake up and spending 8 hours dreaming of when you’re finally off the clock again? Unfortunately, it’s quite common for people to hate their jobs, as a whopping 70% of workers report feeling dissatisfied with their career choices. So if you’re one of those people, you might need to take 10 minutes out of your day to deal with your lack of passion for your work in a healthy way: by looking at memes and funny photos.
I'm in love with all shades of white. I've always loved the look...ever since I saw Dr. Zhivago and that ice covered house (above) in the movie. As a result, I use a lot of white and off-white paint (insider's tip: keep your money in Rustoleum's Heirloom White). Remember that mirror I showed you all? Well, I asked your opinion and most of you said to paint it the off white, so here she is in all her chalk paint "Olde White" glory. Love it! While I had the chalk paint out, I decided to paint some more things…a small mirror. And…then, this little jewelry box that definitely needed some TLC. After I painted it, I distressed it a bit and added this pretty vintage cameo to the top. Of course, the inside looked pretty bad, so I decoupaged some scrap paper to the insides with Mod Podge. Just what it needed! I had another little box that cried out for some chalk paint, so after painting it, I added a little wood embellishment and used some ink to liven it up a bit…again, I decoupaged the inside lid and added velvet paper (you can get this at Joanne fabrics) to the inside bottom. These will go into my shop and to a craft show that I just decided to participate in. Oh, and by the way, I am participating in the 31 Days of Hope auction over at the DIY Club. Read about the auction here. More about what I'll be donating in another post... Linking to: http://shadesofamberinc.blogspot.com/

For "traditional marriage" it sure has changed its definition throughout history. But some things never change. Namely bigots, who always sound the same.
