Got to Dance!!

Samsara posted an article on - Jan 28, 2012, 11:59 am
Hey, I’ve been spending alot of time dancing recently…I started a new tribal class which is great fun and I still go to my regular bellydance class! Of course this inevitably means that a lot of my crafting time has involved costume-making, some of it easy, some of it quite challenging! I...

Hippy New Year!

Samsara posted an article on - Jan 7, 2012, 4:37 pm
Well, I for one am very glad that 2011 is over; it was a truly rubbish year for lots of reasons. Sadly the Uberhound passed away and left a very big gap in our lives….we adopted another puppy to help to fill the void, but sadly the puppy died of parvo virus four days after we brought him home. ...

L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N

Samsara posted an article on - May 31, 2011, 12:45 pm
Yep, I know, it’s been ages since I blogged; as in the Noah and the Whale song…Life Goes On…sorry about that. A gentle nudge from Cazz reminded me that I have been neglecting my dear old blog and all the friends who come and visit me here!  I blame work and life and the internet, and all the ...

Well, here we are, the start of another year…I hope that your Christmas was a special one, and that your year to come will be happy, and healthy, and as prosperous as it can be in the current economic climate! I remember that I didn’t show the card that I designed for school; it’s a photog...

A Very Merry Yuletide…

Well, here we are, it’s nearly Christmas and I haven’t blogged for aaaages! Sorry if you’ve been a regular reader awaiting my crafty updates, but this last term has been very very time consuming! But that doesn’t mean that I haven’t been creating, ‘coz I have! Soo, what have I been u...

4th Blogoversary!!

Samsara posted an article on - Aug 4, 2010, 5:59 am
So today is my 4th Blogoversary! Yay! I can’t believe it’s been going so long. I know that sometimes I don’t have so much time to blog, but I’m afraid that work has to come first, a teachers time is not always her own, even when she’s finished school and is at home! It’s been a fun journ...

The Happy Happy Hippy Swap…

Samsara posted an article on - Jul 31, 2010, 6:09 am
Each year I organise the Hippy Swap over on Craftster. It’s become like a tradition; I finish school, I have more time for crafting and sitting for hours staring at a computer screen trawling through crafty sites…you know how it is! The weather has been quite nice here, so I’ve spent alot of t...

Happy Hafla and Bellydance Superstars!

Samsara posted an article on - Jul 2, 2010, 5:23 pm
So I finished my costume just in time! The Hafla was on Thursday night and I finished my outfit at lunchtime on Thursday. My bra was covered and embellished with ribbon, lace, sequins, part of an old earring and some coins. I took the straps off the bra and replaced them with ribbon, covered the bac...

Funky Clothes and Festival!

Samsara posted an article on - Jun 23, 2010, 6:16 am
Unless you’re a hermit, or you happen to live in the USA, you can’t have failed to notice that the World Cup has started. The Football (soccer) World Cup. If you’re a footie fan, it’s kinda a big deal. Me, I don’t give a damn. I used to be indifferent about it, but since I live with a foot...

Parties and workshops!

Samsara posted an article on - Jun 12, 2010, 4:59 pm
Well, the last couple of weeks have gone flying by, yes, literally flying!!! All my students are getting to the end of their courses, which is good, but very very bad for my bank balance! I shudder to think of the upcoming financial drought…my credit is about to be severely crunched! Still I’m h...

Holiday in Hunstanton…

Samsara posted an article on - Jun 2, 2010, 4:11 am
So things are absolutely crazy here at the moment. Have I said this before?? Can’t remember…my brain is trying to do an impression of a black hole here…all intelligent thought has been eradicated by the mindnumbingly boring task of the multiple marathon. Read, tick, read, comment, read, tick, ...

The Great Bluebell Hunt

Samsara posted an article on - May 19, 2010, 5:17 pm
Around this time of year the English countryside plays host to the wonderful Hyacinthoides non-scripta, which to you and I is known as the English Bluebell, a glorious deep violet blue scented flower which dominates the woodland round here. In fact we have many of England's most beautiful bluebells ...

Ash, Rings and Wings

Samsara posted an article on - May 3, 2010, 3:12 am
Well, it’s been an unusual couple of weeks. Unless you live in Europe, you probably won’t have taken much notice of an Icelandic volcano eruption, but over here, particularly in the UK, it’s caused chaos! Why is that you may ask? Well, it seems that volcanic ash is not very good for aeroplane ...

I can’t believe that a week’s gone already! It’s flown by at supersonic speeds that would have put Concord to shame! And what a week! I’ve managed to keep to the Pledge as sworn to uphold in my last post; yes folks, it’s been over a week, and I’ve not succumbed to the digital temptations...

Hello my wonderful bloglets, I hope you had a lovely Spring festival, whatever you celebrate. I have two, count ‘em, TWO whole weeks off to catch up with some much needed crafting therapy! And yes, I’ve been very productive! See, I’ve had an epiphany. A big one. And I’ve taken the pledge. We...

Catching Up On Old Times!

Samsara posted an article on - Mar 29, 2010, 2:58 pm
Well, I never meant to be gone so long! This term has been crazy, and sooo busy! But let me tell you, I haven’t rested on my laurels. I had a visit from an old friend and her daughter who’d emigrated to Australia two years ago. Lola was a wee baby when I last saw her, and here she is, all growed...

New floor!

Samsara posted an article on - Feb 14, 2010, 6:02 pm
So we had our new floor done! Hurrah! After three years, possibly longer, the laminate floor which had been sitting in a pile at the side of the room has finally been laid! We paid a lovely guy to do it and it took him almost two days (which is a surprising long time considering the miniscule size o...

Snow Joke…

Samsara posted an article on - Jan 11, 2010, 5:35 pm
Aaarghh! No snow! Well, no serious snow anyway; not enough for the schools here to declare a legitimate holiday snow day, so poor ole Samsara had to drag her unwilling arse to work. It’s not that I hate work or anything, in fact usually I quite enjoy teaching; some days it’s like free entertainm...

Well, I hope you all had an amazing Christmas? I’ve had such good fun. It’s officially been a white Christmas here, although the snow has now melted. I went to see Avatar in 3D on Christmas Eve with M. I gather there’ve been lots of arguments about the social implications of the film, but if y...
