since I was here last. And so much has been happening.

We’re still on school holidays here, one more week to go, so work has been sporatic. I’m looking forward to getting back into a routine and also withe the new direction I’m taking.

So what have I been up to. Well at the beginning of the year was sister was diagnosed with PND. It was physically and mentally exhausting. It was really hard to see watch ...

but I’m a bit bummed if I were being honest.

I had an email from a huge shopping centre wanting Valentine’s mini chocolate bars. If it were economical it would become a regular order for occasions throughout the year. It was for 5000 mini bars!! All of my (business) Christmases would have come at once with that one. I sent off the quote, expenses plus a reasonable profit for myself, and I got a reply to ...

I was born in December

DECEMBER: Loyal and generous. Sexy. Patriotic. Active in games and interactions. Impatient and hasty. Ambitious. Influential in organizations. Fun to be with.  Loves to socialize.  Loves praises.  Loves attention.  Loves to be loved.  Honest and trustworthy.  Not pretending.  Short tempered.  Changing personality.  Not egotistic.  Take high pride in oneself.  Hates restrictions.  Loves to joke.  Good sense of humor.  Logical.

Yes, I would say the majority of that is true of myself. Very ...

I hope everyone had a lovely Christmas and that 2008 brings a wonderful year. I’m really looking forward to 2008 both for business and personal.

Even though I’ve still been working, I haven’t been as much and it’s been to have a good break. It’s nice laying on the lounge with nothing urgently to be done and I’m sure the kids appreciate a more relaxed me too.

Official going back time is 7th January. I’ve still been working ...

I made a phone call Monday lunchtime and then a few hours later my phone line was dead. No dial tone, no internet. It was very distressing to think of being without the internet for any period of time. Logged the fault. I was told they would check it within 2 days and then if need be make an appointment to come in and fix it. Well Thursday 8am rolls around and the phone guy ...

I don’t even know where to start. Well, technically, I’d say I’m not even allowed to start. I’m not sure what’s happening or where I’ll end up but to say that I am disgusted is an understatement. Oh I wish I could spill it all out but I can’t until the processes are complete. I’ll just sit in my own confusion and uneasiness until then.

I sat down and had a good look at how I will promote myself in 2008.

One thing I have determined is advertising just does not work for me. People find it hard to buy chocolate online as they don’t know whether it’s dodgy chocolate or not (it’s yummy Belgian chocolate by the way) and I always hear that my customers are surprised by the actual size and quality of my product. It’s hard to see ...

Almost a month, in fact, since I last posted here. I will admit I have been shamelessy hooked on Facebook. It has been wonderful finding old schoolfriends. I am so excited to be back in touch with so many that I lost contact with. he novelty is starting to wear off as I’ve found most of the people I want to find.

I’ve also created a Moments In Chocolate facebook page if anyone is interested in ...

and I’m not jumping for joy like I sometimes do. It’s been nice and peaceful and relaxing with no rush. Its been nice. Especialy considering my eldest is having some issues at school and I was having some nasty issues with a teacher that I would prefer to leave behind me. But I am keen on gettingback into it. I have a few things planned that I’m hoping to get up and running or ready to ...

School holidays has officially started. I will have 5 kids home ALLLL day long for 2 weeks lol. I don’t think it will be so bad but.

Got a few things going on. Need to get chocs ready for the PBC Expo. I’m providing a prize for their stand. Beauty and Lace have a wedding competition of mine running at the moment. I am still working on these articles. If I had the spare cash I’d ...
