It’ s time for our Merry-go-round, and this month’ s topic is: “Failure sucks: but instructs”.
Running the risk of portraiting myself as a bouncy, happy, super optmistic muppet; I must say that I don’t really have much to consider as failure. No, I’m not a perfect super woman. I just disagree with the semantics here. [...]

This blog has been quiet this week, but not because I haven’t been working. In fact, I’ve been editting, resizing pictures, learning HTML, discussing with the desginer (aka my husband) and that sort of stuff because I’ve decided to unify all the blogs and websites I have into one thing.
