I’ve been without an internet connection for five whole days.  Nightmare!  I was almost thirty years old before I made any significant use of a computer.  Now, I use it every working day.  I have been doing my best to keep up in recent days using the tiny screen and keyboard of my Blackberry.

I’ve been itching to post.  I am about to embark on a long overdue adventure:  replacing my old kitchen.  I can’t begin to tell you how excited I feel!  When I say old, I really mean old…  When I moved into my home in January, 2000, the kitchen was already in need of an update.  My friend Alan drew the the picture below when he visited.

The trouble is, the rest of the house was also in need of an update.  Oh!  And in 2002 I took a decision I had not foreseen earlier – to leave full time employment and set up my own business.  Setting up Learning for Life (Consulting) took time, energy – including emotional energy – and all sorts of resources.  And in the meantime, believe it or not, I got used to the kitchen.

In recent weeks, planning for this transformation, I have been acutely aware of how grateful I feel to so many people in my life.  So many people have supported me on the great adventure of the last ten years.  I thought I’d share this kitchen adventure with you along with my thanks.  I’ll be sharing photos, ups and downs, and thank yous over the coming days.

Please share your comments.  I value your support.
