Moving, looking, moving, looking.

It has been quite some time since my first, and only, blog entry. This is because I have been in the process of relocating to Bendigo (Country) form Melbourne (City).

The reason we (my fiance and I) decided to make the big move is primarily, initially, to make my fiance happy again. When we first got together I was living in Melbourne and he in Bendigo, so we made a deal that he would move to Melbourne and if he gave it a good honest shot and couldn't really be happy there, we would move back to Bendigo, where we are both from. So he tried, he couldn't, and so we have moved back to the country.

We have been staying with my fiance's sister while we look for a place. Sadly, my crafting and sewing stuff has been packed away this whole time. The only good thing about this is that it has made me realise how important my hobby has become to me and how much I gain from it emotionally.

So after a couple of weeks of scouring the town for a decent and cheap rental, we have successfully secured a little place and will be moving in over the coming week and weekend. I can't wait! I'm itching to get back into my projects!

We have also started the search for the place where we will get married (I almost wrote 'tie the knot', but that makes me think of a hang mans noose!).

Yesterday we went for a drive and visited a few wineries. None of them were suitable for one reason or another. One had a rooster as it's logo and I'm terrified of chooks and roosters!  However, we were directed (by a lovely lady at one of the wineries we visited) to a property called Rosewood where weddings and such are held. The gardens there are stunning and it is now on our list of possibilities but we will continue looking for now as there are still quite a lot of wineries in the area worth checking out as a potential venue and besides, I love wine!

No Idea

To anyone who reads this, the following will be very clear; I have no idea!

In many ways this is what this blog will be all about. Having no idea and the journey along the way to ... well hopefully having one! Ayone who already has some idea, is invited to (please!) pass on your wisdom along the way by way of response to posts, guest posts or anyother way they can thnk of.

So what don't I have any idea about? Well amoung many things, blogging. I have wanted to start this blog for a very long time but a lack of confidence and fear of sucking has been in my way. In fact a lack of confidence and fear of sucking often get in the way of me doing things that I would no doubt very much enjoy if I just, well, did it.

Other things I have no idea about which I plan to cover in this blog are as follows:

Crafting & sewing - I started about 2 years ago so my knowledge and skills are still minimal or undiscovered;

Getting married - this I will be doing in April next year, DIY style (I have ever even been to a wedding); and

Starting a small business - selling my crafty products.

So as I stand on the brink of adventures in to unknown territory, I invite you to join me and together we will overcome our fears and learn along the way!
