Why not, I'm a pretty open and honest person!

I share quite a lot on various social media - so go ahead!  :)

How have you been lately?  :)

Very well thanks!
2017 has been pretty kind to me so far! Fairly busy!
I've just come back from a nice weekend away with the boyfriend, including my cousin's wedding (and some overdue family catch up time). Booked a holiday for May. Work is bearable!
I have plans for this coming weekend too which is quite impressive for so early in the week! Though I'm also looking forward to a lay in Sunday and some major blogging catch-up!!

Do you like butterflies?

Do you like butterflies?


:D I do!
I somehow manage to add them to various craft projects quite often too!

I'm trying to attract some in a beautiful garden some day.

Totally doable! I wish I had the time! Though I do see a few in the summer here  :)

Are you with a job these days?

What are your tasks?

Technically my job title is Shipping Manager. But there are only two of us now, so we both do everything from taking orders over the phone, processing web orders (aka cutting fabric) and sending it. But I deal with posting and booking couriers etc, and sample orders, whereas the other woman I work with deals with advertising and media and the more tech stuff. :)

Tldr it's an office job. Involving cutting fabric. Basically  ;)

Hahaha yeah it has its moments!
It's not so bad. I've done far worse, and I've done this for... three... years now  :o

I see. Well, someone has to do it. :)

I've been in my current accounting job for just over a year and enjoy what I do; there's lotsa math involved, which is something I'm good at.

Well, math was always my strongest subject in school; to me it just came naturally.

On that note... what was your favourite subject in school?

Tough one... English Lit probably. But close call with Drama and Media Studies.
Not uncommon to be strong in the above and less good with numbers haha!

Ah, I see. Literature and things like that are my weakest areas, but I do know a thing or two about them. In fact, I do occasionally know the answers to some Jeopardy questions about literature. And during my years as an undergrad student, I took some courses in literature and did pretty well overall.

...which is of course the opposite for me.

Excellent! Having a wide range of knowledge is certainly a good thing. O0

If there's anything you'd like to ask me, please feel free to do so on my thread! :)
