Radio silence

Hello,

Please forgive me for the radio silence recently, like i said a couple of posts back i would like to work on content for this blog more, rather than just posting on here for the sake of a blog post. Not that i didn't enjoy posting every day because do not get me wrong i did enjoy doing so but i was really beginning to struggle with the content to upload every day.

Offline i am currently working away on my Spring/Summer collection which will fingers crossed be ready to launch on the 4th of April, well fingers crossed! With the new items being added to Birdie Teacup shop wise, i would also like to keep my blog up to the standards and give it a slight make over too. 

For the next few weeks up until that point i will probably be quite quiet here, from the 4th April though you should hopefully see a lot of me again. I want to bring the real me to the blog and to introduce you to the weird and wonderful mind of me, the creator behind Birdie Teacup. From the quirky tea drinking, book worm with a great fondness for cats and tattoos. 

The revamped Birdie Teacup will contain more photographs, as my lack of photographs that i take in general is pretty low which is shocking considering how much i do enjoy taking pictures. I as a person have to be less shy in life and stop being such a shut in in my house. I never get up to much outside the four walls of my craft room unless i am at work at my day job. Things that i really enjoy doing like going to aquariums, art galleries, museums etc i never do at all anymore. Even going to see bands, this used to be a regular occurrence years ago, but in the past few years this seems to have dwindled quite a lot.

I have to start breaking out of my comfort zone and perhaps maybe start living a bit, instead of thinking work work work all the time, as this is not the most healthy of lives to lead. It's like I've let myself go a little, i very rarely put on make up or make myself look nice anymore. At the weekends i am really lucky if i brush my hair. I have all of these beautiful outfits in my wardrobe but they never get to see the light of day anymore!

I used to really enjoy going out on little adventures and now i never feel like i have the energy to do so. This has got to change and i feel the sooner the better as i am wasting this little time i have left on this planet, however long that will be. I am excited to see where i will be this time next year, i hope to not still be in the same place and be an even more of a shut in. The likes of activities like the cinema i refuse to go to as other humans are there. I'm not sure where i seem to have adopted this attitude from as i used to always be going to the cinema, i know this due to the number of ticket stubs i have dating back as far as 1997. ( That will be the little hoarder in me that has kept them)

Recently i just feel that i seem to have lost myself a bit, i'm not clear as to when this seemed to happen and i'm unsure if at the time of happening it could have been prevented. I think i may have just reflected a little too much here. I did want you to know why there was radio silence though, i felt like i should explain myself regarding my absence and the reasons for doing so.

I shall return on April 4th, and this is going to be my challenge to live a lot rather than a little.

Thank you for reading and listening to me for the last while.

Katy
