Well it's New Years Eve, and as I prepare to put on my glad-rags and dance the new year in, I thought I would take a few moments between painting my nails and curling my hair to have a think about some of the things I have learnt this year...
1) There is no such thing as too many pairs of shoes
2) There is such thing as too many dogs...
3) Missing a vital letter from the word 'count' is not the worst typo you can make...
4) ...neither is accidentally putting three 'x's at the end of a message to your boss.
5) Offence is taken, not given.
6) Not all lost cats find there way home.
7) Your best friends are not necessarily the ones you have known the longest.
8) Honey makes an excellent burn remedy.
9) It's all well and good having people support your every move, but sometimes you need someone to remind you of the things you can't (and shouldn't do)
10) Smoked haddock is the devils food.
11) Blood is thicker than water - but so is yogurt
12) If you're too drunk to log onto twitter... you probably shouldn't be on there...
Happy New Year everyone! Here's to 2013!!!
This blog was designed with a mind to track my progress as I attempt to finish writing my first novel and get it published. It is more likely to feature all the things that distract me along the way, namely my cats, shoes, obsessing over lots of lovely books (none of which I have written), the cats again, dancing, choir practice, clothes, more books, sparkly stuff, the cats, and the general perils of living life as a left hander.
Welcome to my blog!
I am a lefty. I write vertically, cannot use can-openers and was recently foiled by a right handed ladle (I will have my vengeance...) but more than this, I generally seem to approach life from a different angle. I appreciate that this may have nothing to do with being a lefty and may just be my own dysfunctionallity, but after earning the nickname 'Lefty-Flip' after a frustrating game of Guitar Hero, it seemed an appropriate title for this blog.
