THE-WIND-OF-CHALLENGE.


When we least expect it, life sets us a challenge to test our courage and willingness to change; at such a moment, there is no point in pretending that nothing has happened or in saying that we are not yet ready. The challenge will not wait. Life does not look back. A week is more than enough time for us to decide whether or not to accept our destiny.  ― Paulo Coelho, The Devil and Miss Prym

And when challenge came knocking,
I did not know what to do with him,
I debated with my sensible self, if  should i invite him in or play pretend i was not available at that moment?
I became the bigger "man" and invited him in.
Over a cup of tea and cookies, i was challenged.


---- So i got an email from a client who wanted an order for a product i was not even making or ever dreamt of making? FAVOR BOXES.
My reply to the email was, "Did you mean cupcakes wrappers?" I thought she had mixed up her words and wrote down boxes instead of wrappers?
So i thought to myself, "wait a minute there hunni?! You can do this!! And do it you can so well!"

So, onto the internet i was searching through doooozens of websites and blogs looking for templates i could use on my die-cutter.
I got a couple of A-MAY-ZING designs, that i tried out. They came out looking great!
NAILED IT!!
I realized how much i had been limiting myself and what my machine could do.
I am now SUPER CHARGED with great ideas.
Everyday from work i rush home to get designing :))
I absolutely beyond a shadow of doubt, LOVE what i do!
I would not trade this for anything. Thank God  \O\ /O/
Whoop! Whoop!

{ Monday .. With A Chance of Change!


“Why do you go away? So that you can come back. So that you can see the place you came from with new eyes and extra colors. And the people there see you differently, too. Coming back to where you started is not the same as never leaving.”
Terry Pratchett, A Hat Full of Sky
  I came back from my weekend party spree... and SAM was gone!! Packed up and left for bigger better things. I never thought in a million years that this environment was holding you back??
Those big dreams you had that were waay too BIG for this little space?? --- Well, i'll DEFINITELY miss your presence around the house... and your hearty home cooked meals...awwwh! The Chapatis that i would write home about... The Mandazis and Pancakes that i would rather be late for *sigh*


I get to the Office this morning, I realized i forgot my Glasses and my Laptop Charger is MISSING!! Someone decided to borrow it in my absence and has since gone A.W.O.L ... *huffing & puffing* I have been reduced to sharing NOT caring :(  *really people???* mscheeeeeeeeeeew!
I am adapting ... slowly though.


Tomorrow is a holiday!! Yaaaay!! *put on a happy face*
I get to meet baby Jabali for the very first time... ;) and sleep! sleep! sleep!

Happy Presidential Swearing-in to all Kenyans ;)
