500

I've just noticed that I've written over 500 posts; thousands of words illustrated by hundreds of photos.

I want to thank you for visiting this space, for reading my stories and leaving the beautiful comments that you do. And to the lovely new readers who have stumbled upon this page....hello, so nice to 'meet' you.

So what does the next 500 hold? Well, I know for certain that there will be more films by daniel and wonderful collaborations with my favourite photographers - tim, luisa and tamara. There are inspiring projects brewing with a gorgeous painter and an entirely new venture that will bring together my fellow creatives: writers, designers and artists. 

I hope you'll stick around to see what becomes....

Tim took this photo of us a few days ago at one of the most exquisite places I've ever visited. I'll share the rest of the captures with you at the end of the month when I post my final entry for "the sling diaries"

  10. I enjoy your blog but I hope we get to see more of the real life 'behind the scenes Jodi' not just collaborations with artists. That said I would still read your blog if that's the direction you decided to take.

  34. Thank you for sharing your life with us Jodi. I always find both inspiration and sense of calm in this space. x laura

  35. This is truly a beautiful place to visit during my days at home with two very little ones and another on the horizon. Tell me though, are you always as calm as your blog feels? I could most definitely do with a bit of your zen which is probably why I keep coming back!! xxx

    1. Hehe, let's just say that I do strive for the calm that is in this space. But, that's not always possible. I made a decision at the beginning of my blogging journey that this wouldn't be a place for whinging, moaning or complaining - it's honest and uncontrived but not a vehicle to vent my frustration! If this space can be the one bit of calm in my otherwise chaotic day....then that is good, and most definitely good enough. x

      Delete
  36. Good to know! Even more inspiring that it's a choice you've made for this to be a happy place (and comforting to know that doesn't mean you don't have your 'moments' too!!). I'll keep taking snippets of your calm until I can increase my own! Thanks a million for sharing xx

  38. You have created one of my favourite places to check in with during my busy, beautiful home days. A new venture ... oh my, wouldn't a magazine with you at the helm and all your creatives on board be a divine thing to hold in one's hands and revisit over and over???
