Motionless…

June 22, 2008

Today is not off to a good start

Today is day two of being completely motionless … and not by choice.

I am unable to move both my head and neck making the most simple of tasks both difficult and painful.

I’d love to be able to tell you that this was a result of a night of kinky, chandelier-swinging sex but sadly it isnt.  I have a feeling that I caught a draft the other night at Chapters as I was sitting directly under a vent blowing full out A/C (how exciting grandma!!!).  Obviously it caused my muscles to tense and since everything is connected to everything else … and well,  VIOLA! .. motionless.

I’m bored and irritated, I have a madd load of things to get done today and television sucks in the worst possible way.

What is a girl to do?

p.s. I’d like to blame this on  karma as I didn’t come through on a massage for a certain someone a while back and well now I need one more than ever… blarghhh

p.s.s. Did I mention that I have to deliver two dozen cupcakes tomorrow morning .. pics to follow as this should be interesting ….  (hmmph… that could technically be considered “kinky cooking”  non?… HA!)

If you build it, they will come …

June 6, 2008

Okay so as most of you know, I have decided to change career paths.  Now yes work is work and there will always be a part of you, no matter how much you love it, that will dread days from time to time, but i’m going for it full throttle.  I just don’t see my life behind a desk any longer.  The monotony was killing my spirit.

I love being crafty and I have thoroughly enjoyed baking in my years; so I am going to tap into my entrepreneurial spirit and start a “treats” company.  “Treats” encompasses trendy, cute bits and bites.  I’m talking cupcakes, truffles, pops and cookies folks.  Completely couture and tantalizing delectables (does that even make sense … the string of words just sounded yummy together.)

In the coming posts I will document my steps and progress and I hope to be better on the photo front.  (That is another one of my goals by the way … i’m going to load this puppy with tonnes of photos) My first order of business is locking down a company name that inspires me.  I generally tend to lean toward simple, clean, modern lines so the potential name must fit into the aesthetic image/direction that I have in mind.  However, I also want something very feminine. 

Last night proved to be a very productive brainstorming session and I have mustered a few worthy options.  In the coming days I will play with some graphics and see what domain names are available for purchase.

This is an exciting step for me.  I tend to be a dreamer, but I need to start being a doer.  I can no longer wait for life to come knocking at my door or graciously fall into my lap.  I need to go out there and show myself what I am truly made of.  This part of me as been slightly dormant for awhile as my focus has been on just being a really good mom to lil’ miss C; but I think doing what I love and being happy will help me be an even better mom. 

All in all, I’m stoked. 

If any of you have any possible name/ideas for me, I’d love to hear them!
