Update on ‘the funk’.
It’s gone.
Whew.
Now we can return to our normal programme.

What’s to be done about it?
My latest dive into the funk left me wondering what’s it all about. I began to wonder if I should just give it all up. After all, I don’t make that much of an effort to sell my stuff, so does it really matter to me?
Does the money do any good anyway, or are we all just blowing into the wind.
Let me tell you, the funk has a lot to answer for.
I think I will always have my doubts about where the money goes, and if it does any good, and if we will ever see a world without poverty and anguish, but I do not doubt that my life is worth more when I live generously and with conscience.
Today I saw this.
And it gave me new hope.
I learned that am not here to change the world, just to help a little bit.
Bit of a relief really.
(There goes my nobel peace prize, dammit!)
So, today’s agenda … $1000 of jewelry sales money to Heifer International, because P says he likes them most, and a little something for the Cambodia lady, because she gives me hope.
P.S. I tried looking at her bags today on their website, but keep getting redirected from their product link. I’ve e-mailed them to let them know, (yes, I know, crazy interfering Englishwoman), so hopefully we can get to see them soon.
See here – Bloom Bags – but don’t forget to check back to see if they’ve fixed the problem.
Go on.
You know you want one of their bags :)
