I’m back but I’m not quite here yet… I’m in hiding mode since everything is still total chaos and I’m trying to dig through too many emails and contact close ones. In the meantime I deal with bureaucracy and I try to avoid contacting clients; just postponing for a few more days so I can start designing again next week.
Bruised my left middle finger bumping into a cupboard three times in a row yesterday while carrying heavy boxes… *yes yes… I know what you’re about to say* so typing is literally a bit of a pain… which is a good excuse *hehe* To Wen: thanks so much for your wonderful surprise gift it was a sunny moment during cloudy days… You’re a gem!
I was invited by a reader of my blog to submit some of my artwork to have it printed on laptop sleeves for an online shop in Malaysia. I’m flattered but I won’t be able to design something soon, perhaps later though… I’ll keep the option open because I can’t commit to anything at the moment there’s too much to sort first.
I’ve written some posts while being offline, had to deal with the moments and with lots of emotional stuff, hence my absence: I’m not quite in writing mood just yet. There’s some turmoil going on that needs to be dealt with. So I’m waiting for the dust to settle *whenever that will be* and enjoy the beautiful weather in the meantime…
Hope you too!
Take care of that finger!

Glad the letter and the surprise gift arrived!
I am
it’s getting better coz I can type again *hehe* The letter was the best thing that happened to me in days/weeks… *big hug!* (mentioned in my other reply to your comment: I will send you another one over the weekend, got the stamps and all but I needed a quiet moment to sit down and write
coming soon!)
Still can’t believe you are really back in the lowlands. I’m proud of you for making that step. Hope you’ll settle back in quick!
I am writing you a letter. I so enjoyed sitting down with a cup of coffee and reading the letter you’ve sent me, i want to return that favor. Email is cool, but it’s just not the same.
Hey girl, thank you for your sweet words!
I feel lost here
and I’m not sure if I want to stay here either *LOL* have some thinking to do in the meantime, but it’s good!
So happy to hear you enjoyed the letter, funny how one learns to re-appreciate snail mail again
I felt the same when I received a handwritten letter from a friend and I’m really looking forward to receiving yours! I love stamped envelopes and stamps especially from abroad, there’s something so exciting about them
Unfortunately RSI is keeping me from writing: the printer replaces my handwriting 
Thanks for lovely comment, I need to write a post again some day soon
Just too busy designing my business website: so much fun!
Oh moving is such sweet pain! Hope you get settled soon!
xoxo,
Elaine
Hi Elaine, thanks for your visit and your kind wishes
I’m settling in but I’m busy with a new assignment at the same time: perfect chaos! *hehe*
I don’t know what happened but for some reason I didn’t get a notification of your comment so it’s been waiting for approval for days, my apologies!
