On Saturday afternoon, the 8th of August in fact, I handed over my business to my business partner, my gorgeous daughter Devorah. On Monday night, August 31st, I was putting the clean linen on my bed, and, as I’d done for years, I stood on the edge of the bed to get a good go at shaking the doona into the doona cover. All good, so I went to step back off the bed and bang! I’m on the floor, my head’s in a pile of shoeboxes, and I hear a snap, like some plastic tubing just snapped.

Six weeks later, here I am, I don’t have the plaster on my broken foot any more, and I’ve ditched the crutches, but I’m still walking with a cam walker “moon boot” on my right leg, and I can’t drive.

So, with a fair amount of time on my hands, and with nothing much I gotta do, I’ve been speculating on what I might take on for this next stage of my life. Meantime, I found myself pulling out unfinished, and for that matter, some unstarted projects from my quilt cupboard in the hall, and also making enquiries about studying music at Monash and Melbourne universities. And I suddenly came up with an idea that I’m really inspired about…..

25 projects a year!

Each year, I’ll create and complete 25 projects, and blog about them. I’ll create a new page for each project so I can keep track of them easily. One thing I don’t need is a mess of posts to navigate!

Hope you enjoy!
