Well, so much for those plans. I guess I got caught up in the living and forgot about the blogging.</p><br /><p>The past two years and a half have been the most intense, inspiring and challenging of my life so far. So much learning, so much loving, so much living. I am a bit disappointed with myself for not posting throughout this time, as I am sure it would have been something for us to treasure further down the track. Anyhow, I am ready to make up for it now. So, here I come!</p><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/4844296708720662675-7451035404556927765?l=sleepyseed.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Sleepyseedhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02536987694838491423noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4844296708720662675.post-58261657874716920742009-04-21T22:50:00.008-05:002009-04-21T23:07:51.973-05:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_QUKkdCmh8FQ/Se6XeoLTdjI/AAAAAAAAA1g/FgfvuBMTnsM/s1600-h/su-blackwell-paper-1.jpg"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 283px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_QUKkdCmh8FQ/Se6XeoLTdjI/AAAAAAAAA1g/FgfvuBMTnsM/s400/su-blackwell-paper-1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5327361961662576178" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />I'm fascinated by the work of <a href="http://www.sublackwell.co.uk/">Su Blackwell</a>.
