the latest

Hi all,
Well the latest mid life crisis event in my life is...I've bought a popcorn machine. Well, I've gone halves with a friend and we have great intentions of selling popcorn at markets, school fetes etc.
I've also bought a bubble machine and fog machine. Again to use at school fetes etc. My husband and parents just shake their heads. My kids think its great. I'm always doing impulsive things like this...so they say. I suppose they are right. It keeps life interesting I think.

I'm still writing. This month I find out about the picture book comp I entered. I'm meeting a Koori friend of mine today to talk about info I can use in my novel, which is good of her. And I've also borrowed heaps of books on the Celts...some of their myths and legends will be in my novel too.

This long weekend I'm off for some R & R at Mansfield. I'm going on a Mum's retreat...a well deserved retreat.

Lots of sleep, reading, swimming and drinking. Heaven they call it!!

Ciao
Carmel
