The Inaugural Post - Welcome!

Inspired by my good friend over at Keep Cate Busy, I have decided to set myself the challenge of blogging every day for the next year. Beginning tomorrow, as the Inaugural Post desn't really count...

So, a little about myself. I am a thirty-something, happily married mother of two beautiful girls - Abigail (8yo) and Leah (5yo) - and live in a gorgeous 1890s Victorian home in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. We even have a "princess turret"!!

By trade I'm an IT Consultant, and have just gone back to study to specialise in forensics. Fascinating stuff!! Well, I think so, anyway! I am an avid collector of artist teddy bears and am even known to make a few of my own designs from mohair or using a technique called needle felting.

I love music, movies, and lots of other stuff that I'm sure will be revealed in the coming year. I am definitely a cat person - my two beautiful boys passed away a couple of years ago now, at the ripe old age of 15, but I still miss them so much!!

So I'm off now to fiddle with my blog settings and the like... see you tomorrow for Day 1!!
