This entry is brought to you by Easter. I hope you will have a fantastic one and the Easter Bunny is good to you.

Thank You:

Before I begin I just wanted to thank you all for your support. Never in my wildest dreams did I ever think I would get to 10,000 page views but Deviantart Folk seemed to have really taken a shine to my stamp project. I really wish I could be able to respond to everyone properly but unfortunately work commitments really don't allow for it anymore. My current job is quite full on and I imagine it will only get busier with a couple of large scale events on the horizon.

Baci:

Baci is as much of a rascal as usual. We are due to start the racing season again in April and fingers crossed she will return to me after she races. If she doesn't, I have a secret weapon, a rythmic gymantics ribbon! She loves chasing that ribbon at home but I'm not sure how she will go on a field as she runs away in the hope we will send the Lure around again to give her a second chance to tear around the field. She is currently racing in the Open category and I'm hoping mid year we will have to her title. When I've finished that, will probably look into herding or if I have a death wish, sledding.

Artistic Works:

I have finally finished the mysterious Project Slowpoke and released it to the world, before it travels to its new home at Christmas time. Though I had hoped this would be the last cat project for a while, but I have another few cat pieces this year as Wedding gifts and a request from my Grandma. It isn't that I don't like cats, it is just I have had a fairly heavy focus on them and I had hoped to move on to dogs, horses and birds.

Ah... it's not like the people at the restaurants ever ask for birth certificates for the children though is it?
*cloudrat:iconcloudrat: Mar 24, 2008, 2:32:33 AM
Indeed. Even when I was 13 onwards my Mum was passing me off for as younger so we could get in for the kids special (such is the nature of cheap parents).

I know! I was amazed that the judge had the nerve to say that a 10 year old girl can look like a 16 year old. As if! Some people honestly. And people wonder why I don't live in the UK now...

Well within your rights to be on the soapbox about that. It is really disturbing how lax that law is sometimes.

Don't mind but don't often put them in my journals. I normally just provide you with a reply. :)

1. I am double jointed in my elbows and can move them past 180 degrees.

2. After I finish Lure Coursing with my dog, I am considering purchasing a sled and teaching her to pull me around the street. Mind you might not be the smartest move as I've trained her to chase anything that moves and can see us being hurlled down the street after a car.

3. I love getting mail.

4. I eat like a hobbit. On an average work day I will eat, breakfast, a peach, a tub of yoghurt, lunch, another peach, snack and dinner.

5. I think people who are guilty of molesting small children should be put to death with the bullet charged to their estate.

6. I often wonder if we shouldn't go back to old days where prisoners ran on treadmills to make power. This would solve the issue of renewable energy and prisoners giving back to the community. At the same time could also put fat kids on it and make a reality tv show to fund the project.

7. I believe we are too politically correct.

8. I also believe that men should stand up for ladies on public transport. That time is dead and it makes me sad.

Rodents are darn cute. Marty wanted to get me a pair of rats but Mothership would not have been too happy about it. But never fear when we have a home, I'm sure there will be all manner of dog, bird, fish, rodent and possibly cat about. The cat would only come around when Baci too old to really get up and hassle it.
