Hello!

Apologies for not posting an entry in so long but I was busy having kittens because of a mystery WordPress glitch that rendered my site unreachable and generally mucked things up. It is SO frustrating when you don’t have a clue what is happening with your site. It’s one thing to miss a week or so because you have lost your blogging mojo or you’re just plain tired - it’s another thing entirely when you have things to say and no way to say them!

Anyway it looks like I have cracked the mystery and sorted out the problem, so here I am. Now I’m cold and tired and it’s late so a proper post will have to wait.

I will share one piece of exciting news though - recently I added this little image to my sidebar as I like what this site is doing for crafty Aussies and… sure, they were running a competition too. All you had to do was register on their site and add their banner to your site - easy enough and I didn’t think any more about it.

And then I got an email that I had won one of six advertising packages on the site - valued at $5000! I nearly fell off my chair! They said that I generated the most links to their site during March which was also great to hear! It turns out that the $5000 package gets me a total of ONE ad on the site for a month. That’s one pricey advertisement so imagine the hits I could get from it. I will direct the ad towards my site at www.redinstead.com.au and see how that goes. Wow. Still can’t quite believe it.
