We did pass around the folks for the obligatory gift exchange. All of us are tight when it came to money this year, so we were all told NOT to get each other anything. I haven't even been able to send out any holiday greetings (sorry!). Of course, none of us were able to stick to our vows and each got the other tiny stuff.

Needles to say, temperatures have dropped and the 'Norn Iron' way of saying it's cold, Baltic, is living up to it's name. I find myself muttering about the house, covered in my bright blue slanket, which seems to scare the hell out of wee Oscar.

Mr. Richardson and I had a little bit of a tiff at the start of this week, but luckily all was talked through and resolved. Communication for the win. Yesterday I was running rather late with sending out orders and such that I'd been holding onto because of the postal strikes, and it was 5pm already so the mood for cooking was fading fast.

Instead we decided to go to this new restaurant that had opened up ju ]]> http://illahie.deviantart.com/journal/2010-Calendar-229700231 http://illahie.deviantart.com/journal/2010-Calendar-229700231 Mon, 26 Oct 2009 07:40:27 PDT 2010 Calendar! nonadult journals/personal Illahie http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/i/l/illahie.jpg Copyright 2009-2013 *Illahie
I finally caved under the many requests for a 2010 Celtic calendar. Many thanks to all those that have suggested pieces for the calendar and all those that pushed me to finally do one.

Two versions have been made however, one through dA readily available by clicking here; http://www.deviantart.com/print/8842348/  and one from the main website.

What's the difference?

Well, not only will the one through the website will be signed on the front cover, but it will also carry the four festivals from the Irish calendar; Samhain (Oíche Shamhna), Imbolc (Lá Fhéile Bríde), Bealtaine (Lá Bealtaine) and ]]> http://illahie.deviantart.com/journal/And-the-gift-exchangers-are-229716176 http://illahie.deviantart.com/journal/And-the-gift-exchangers-are-229716176 Sun, 25 Oct 2009 02:24:14 PDT And the gift-exchangers are.... nonadult journals/personal Illahie http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/i/l/illahie.jpg Copyright 2009-2013 *Illahie

When I arrived back on the 15th it had dawned on me quickly that Mr. Richardson had done none of the cleaning, and tried to do a very last-minute washing cycle with all the clothes he had accumulated in a space of eighteen days. He used up every shirt in the closet and was down to his last pair of socks! Sadly, our drying-rack barely holds one wash as is, and said mess came in at about 3, so after filling the dining-room chair with wet shirts and such he piled things up and sort of left them. Sadly, the weather got into them, so nearly all ]]> http://illahie.deviantart.com/journal/New-jewellery-site-PeterStone-has-renewed-itself-230150073 http://illahie.deviantart.com/journal/New-jewellery-site-PeterStone-has-renewed-itself-230150073 Fri, 25 Sep 2009 05:42:03 PDT New jewellery site!

and when the time is true.
It would be a sin no doubt,
To deny this wealth presented to you.

Hmmm... Yeah. I always have been better with images rather than words I'm afraid. But I did want to dedicate a poem to this years plenty that is our three black elders. It does feel sinful to just look at all that fruit and not put it to some use.

It is time for a very special sale indeed :D The Torcs we have on Imbas Creations are now up for a special sale! Why? well, we need to get our bits covered (framed) for the exhibition next year, and since Imbas is mostly a one woman show funds are always on the low side.

So, have you been thinking of affordable, fashionable and fit for the modern day-and-age Torcs? Want to proudly show your roots without wearing that same knotwork pendant everyone else is wearing as well?

Then take a look at our modern Torcs page!
