Dyslexia gone mad this morning.  First I hit refresh instead of spell check when commenting to my friends in facebook and lose my posts.
Then I just submitted an order to my printer for 250 business cards and 25 fridge magnets form my art work, and both of them have spelling errors in them which as soon as the printer began rolling, I saw, :-(, too late, they are paid for.  Sigh.  Mini rant.  I do not 'bottle things up'.  I have done worse things. 

Start again.

I need to focus on the message that I misspelt, I need to look at the meaning,

"Success isn’t how far you got,
but the distance you travelled from where you started."

I guess to even to contemplate being an author with the added burden of dyslexia is an achievement.  I saw two ll's when there was only one there up until the printer started and could not be stopped, is having travelled a greater distance to be where I am now, and I should pat myself on the back for not having quit before I began.   I am determined to not to allow dyslexia stop me working with words, which I love.

So it looks like I will have some half size mini fridge magnets with the words cut off, (this will not be the first time), and some half size mini gift cards, lol, :-) to go in my bonus lucky dips, I add on to good customer orders. 

Before you start beating yourself up for your failings, give yourself a big pat on the back for what you’re doing right. :-) xxxx

It's WAYBACK WEEK!!!! Let's Go Retro! - The message going around facebook is for everyone to change your profile pic to a throwback picture of yourself when you were young!! (Copy and paste this to your status, and let's see how adorable we all were!)

This is me, half my life ago. 31 years ago at age 32.  Maxi dresses are back in fashion, I would be as comfortable and in style in that dress today as i was then.
