Life is full of changes.
They are not always easy.
I try not to be an "over-sharer" of personal information on my blog and like to stick to art.
But sometimes I share "schnippets" of what's going on with me and mine as it is all intertwined.
Recently I had to make some tough decisions.
I am not one to make decisions lightly.
I take my life and my responsibilities seriously, both personally and professionally, and hence tend to mull over positives and negatives, what is "right" and what isn't, what is the civilised thing to do vs. what would make everyone else (except me and mine) happy.
Ultimately I am not one to run away from a problem and would rather address it front on and, hopefully, make the right decision.
For my friends in Perth, I am truly sorry that I had to make such a tough decision not to come to the workshops that were planned with Ngaire and I.
As a mother of 3 boys who need me now more than ever, when I marriage breaks down, there was simply no other option for me and mine. I chose to do what is best for my family and I know it was the right decision.
For those who don't know me well, I usually keep myself to myself, I don't "do" politics or play mindgames...I'm not interested it, never have been, never will be and have no time for it. I am what I am and I'm happy and comfortable with that.
I am in the process of many, many changes taking place and some of it is REALLY hard, there is no way around it.
But for the first time in many years, I feel hopeful for the future.
I have some wonderful friends and family support and I they are here to help make my journey less lonely.
I cannot thank them enough and cannot imagine a life without them.
I have "friends" through my art who live on the other side of the country (whom I have never met in real life) who are constantly providing love and support. Seriously, thankyou...it means the world to me...there is nothing worse than feeling totally alone.
If you have emailed me and I haven't replied, it is simply that for some reason I can receive emails, but can't seem to send them. Please continue to send them and I adore them! I am working on the problem and hopefully will get it sorted soon.
Anyhow....sorry about the long post!
Just felt I needed to let people know what's going on!
Amongst all the chaos, I am thinking of you all!
