I began this blog on October 1st 2013 when I was 6 months away from my 50th Birthday and wanted to daily record my year with the blog ending on September 30th 2014. Five years later as I approached 55 I repeated this. Now ten years after this all began as I prepare to reach my 60th birthday in 2024 once more a daily update beginning on October 1st 2023 and ending on 30th September 2024. It is a personal journey, which others may find mind-numbing!

October 25th 2013
A busy and exciting morning. Julie had ordered some Christmas cards based on one of her designs and yesterday got a call to say they were ready for collection, 100 cheeky chappie dog cards (with a Santa's hat). So after a trip to the vets with Molly the aged cat, we stopped off at the Wessex Print Centre and picked them up. And very good they look too. So this is the embryonic beginning of Julie's art career. She's branching out into animal portraits, and in the year or so she's been doing it had 1 commission and a few enquiries which are coming to fruition now. Exciting times and it's good to have a positive outlook to the future. From today's Christmas cards, who knows where this will take her.
