This Will Be........




My last blog post


for some time.


I mentioned in this post, how a door had closed.


Mr. Paradis, who had been working away from home


for most of the last four years


now has a job in L.A.


This means I will no longer be hopping on planes to join him every 4-6 weeks.


And that life can return to a more generous and forgiving routine.


In which I hope to get some big projects done.  Which I don't feel I can do WELL.  And Blog WELL.

Thanks so MUCH to everybody who has signed up as followers, and to those of you who have stopped and shared a little of yourselves with all the rest of us.  

I will leave the blog up in it's current form for the time being.  So that I can upload the odd thing if it strikes my fancy.  (i.e. Pasadena Flea Parts 2 and 3, yes?)  And then, we'll see.

I will miss you.  But I expect to be able to continue to visit from time to time whether at "your place", or right back here.  So this is not goodbye, it's just a little Aloha!  

And Ahui Hou!  ("Until the next time.......")  xoxoxoxo

  9. Really happy for you! And well done on navigating a long distance relationship for all that time. I know how difficult it is, so it is really testament to your relationship and you. Wish you lots of happiness.
    Will miss you a lot - hope you'll still keep on stopping by our blog and please please keep in touch. And I hope to meet up when you're next in London (it's a must!) x

  19. Maybe we could send you pics to put up that we think you would really like....
    we are not keen to see you disappear but won't revolt because of the door slightly ajar which promises a little colour in our lives from time to time!
    well...dramatics aside....
    this is brilliant news and may the efforts to 'do your thang' be blessed indeed and much joy come despite whatever pain it brings. Creative works do torment one in part... don't be put off.and enjoy!!!!
