Dear readers

Thank you all so much for the lovely comments In Love ! It really brought tears to my eyes, but I get emotional quickly. Must be the female hormones. I don’t know about you, but the sight of baby animals or a sad storyline can leave me all teary-eyed. When I was younger I couldn’t understand why woman would cry over that, but nowadays I know it’s not under control Wink

Lady commented on the neighbour story. I’m sorry to hear that there’s a car lot next to you now :(. I know there are guidelines concerning noise that you neighbours, even a business, have to stick to.
But luckily *thanks the universe after all* there will be an employement agency for 40+ aged people. Maybe they can help me by that time Razz

I’m always joking a bit about the whole Secret movement, because it’s over the top. I don’t believe that someone who’s ill can just throw their medicines away as long as they have positive thoughts. It just doesn’t work that way. But the law of attraction thing isn’t new to me. I think that’s just a matter of thinking about something and someone will somehow pick it up.

For instance when I was younger I used to dream about being a singer -believe me I’m not that good- but at that age you think you can accomplish anything. At that time a guy came up to me and asked me if I could sing, to audition for his band. Isn’t that funny? I auditioned and sang in the band for a good couple of months before I got replaced by my state enemy #1 (long story). But it wasn’t that bad because afterwards I got to sing with his girlfriend in a group and we had fun together.

Last week my hubby and I were walking home with our grocery’s while talking about the economic crisis, which seems to be a hot topic these days. He was getting less assignments than usual and I assured him that things would turn around. After I said this I noticed a flyer on the pavement. I said to my hubby -who is an illustrator- that it looked just like his drawing. He picked it up and replied that it was his drawing indeed, but that it was edited a bit. So with the flyer in hand he could call the company and ask for a reuse fee, haha.

Somehow the crisis seems to skip me and other webdesigners. Luckily I’m in the right sector, but I do work overtime these last couple of months. Your income is insecure when you’re a freelancer, so it’s best to grab all assignements when you can. Combine this with a minimal social life and there’s almost no time left for kao-ani.com :(

What I plan on doing is to complete the tutorials section and update the pixel clocks. Other than that I would really like to make a new icons set and free Wordpress templates. This would take some time though. Worse case scenario I could make the template(s) during summer when it’s more quite concerning assignments Smile Hopefully our garden is finished by than so I can sit outside with my laptop *dreaming away*. Aren’t you also looking forward to the summer? I could kill for some warmth and sunlight, instead of this cold depressing weather.

    If you made themes that are as cute as your site, I’m sure you’d be able to sell them as premium themes and top-up your freelance income (either through your own site, or a 3rd party like themeforest.net) Smile

  2. You update your blog seldomly?Heart

    Thank you Jem, that’s a great idea! I think I’ll make some free and some premium themes ^_^

  4. Whoa, I don’t check here often enough.. Or when I do you seem to be in a blogging lull and I miss everything. XD

    The worst thing about my neighbors is that it’s basically a car lot with a shop for–literally–booze, sex toys, bongs, and pipes. They get away with it because everyone ignores it. (Though the store gets robbed a lot. One night they busted the windows and stole liquior just to have the alarms go off, so they tossed the bottles in our yard. -,-*) They were supposed to go around the neighborhood and have us all sign a paper saying it was okay to sale that sort of thing, per law, but they paid someone off and got away with it.

    Sorry for that rant.. Just know that I’ve got it worse, unless drug dealers move in next door, which is pretty unlikely I’m sure.

    Hey, as for being emotional, I’ve got a good one: I cry every time I watch The Fox and The Hound. When the old lady has to release Todd into the wild, I can’t stop crying! Everyone makes fun of me for it.. >,<

    PS - I think you should do tons more pixel adopts! My adoptable site only has one person that does pixel adopts, and I wish I had someone as talented as you to do some. Grin I always liked your little pixel stuff.
