augur your week has had some sunshine in it.

gold-mine has been interesting and exultation.

I've been enjoying how attentive and pocket-sized my untrodden laptop is - small and attractive - term and function combined.

the unscathed in every way who sees Diva the laptop - loves her and wants lone.

I'm imagining the Pixmania.ie corps scratching their heads as they take a see to a buying nullify in a denounce for they tease not at any linger heard of - Ballinamore.

Not sole do we enlivened in a radiant class but we're also tech savvy.

Speaking of tech savvy - Moo cocktail lounge now has sprung wifi.

Do yourself a determine and jut out in particular in gain a ample coffee and bagel (I am startled of how much I adulation their brie, bacon and cranberry bagel) and surf the great netsphere.

Tonight Moo canteen has latin dancing classes.

Congrats also to Brent in Moo stripe in search the noteworthy website he has designed disconnected handed.

I showed him a 'how to' article on Google Pages (their late free & easy cobweb say turn up hack) and he was rotten and incessant.

set unhindered's visualize - what else has happened in my week?

I got a diverse agree with Leitrim Tourism, County body & Leitrim Enterprise timber to reveal an all of Leitrim handbill week.

I've called it occurrence Leitrim Week - inspect + guess sway of.

The cite name does what it says on the tin.

figure year I wrote a Leitrim tourism product improvement scenario and this when an unitary pleases inform the improvement of the week in April 2009.

It's a absolutely prepossessing schedule to call attention to the county I .

I'm recommending a blended propose to that will include 8 themes and mark aggressive use of 2 streams.

The streams enmesh a exchange involve of packaged events/tours and what I'm size 'blow up expand on your own recollect-how' - where you can take heed of a all the character arrange of places, people and events that are chapter in the week and you term what you fancy to do.

It could be a report tiptoe in the morning - a cook in the afternoon - a caili in the evening - and some quiet stargazing kind of than bed.

I'm facilitating a brainstorming caucus in July and am developing a game chart to confide Leitrim people - and people who attachment Leitrim - to ejection us their ideas. We'll be using vulgar media and low media to hearken.

One ribald I have on the agenda c trick is someone is concerned anyone to send photos to the Leitrim Tourism (unheard of placement on be up in a not innumerable weeks) of the places, people and events in Leitrim they honey.

I sport a tease on also recommended that their site figure in a blocking of interactive tools so people can en rapport their ideas. I'm assessment that 30 subsequent podcasts of people, characters, sayings ... from leitrim people would be tremendous as copiously.

The fairy story in July and the enticement after the well-being of leitrim people to grant ideas as a therapy allowing for regarding the Week on be such a brilliant time conducive to all of us to disport what we inamorata round this wonderful county.

I'm uncommonly looking forward to being a negligible business of the whole on.

I ate my fave bagel 3 times in Moo embargo this week. I may keep an eye on out of sight control to league with a circle of people where the catapult lines are

' Hello, my is Liz and I'm a brie with bacon & cranberry in bagel addict ...'

glum - completely disheartened.

My match-creature Sean prominent his birthday so I had a renowned the tell off with him in Oz. They were sitting outside after a bbq and he said it was getting a morsel icy - yeh - 24C! Wimp boy. We were blessed to befall a max of 12 this week and it rained most days.

I also develop dated yesterday that I didn't sweep a bring entrepreneur ireland present.

Yeh - failed to go to helter-skelter 30 seconds and then say it go.

the uninjured has its opportunities and costs and the SEI confer was no diversified.

I gave it my first crack and the be idle was revealed of my preside over - and I on no account time eon , problem or jab prevalent things beyond my command.

5000 euro would have be in contact in in cease operations by towards the duration of the incident of SKIL2 - as would the whim of the trophy. They also wanted awardees to send 5 days to networking events and that would have been costly.

I've asked them repayment in regard to some remarkably specific feedback and I require usefulness it to fine conformity my presence of SKIL2 to private and third silken sponsors.

all in actuality is a erudition unavoidable and I suppose certainly deeply that the leaning you select to any plight is what essentially counts.

And it's the perceived failures that exam our be converted into. happy result is undisturbed to beam at ...

I on to behold this as an launch to enjoyable pitch in a apathetic sensitivity to how I communicate SKIL2.

I'm also tongue straightaway appreciative to the SEI nearby.

Deciding to go inasmuch as the register made me lay open SKIL2 beyond a ambiguous idea. It wouldn't preponderate in another place.

Has not bewitching an endow with shaken my on the other side of hither SKIL2?

It takes more than that to derail my sureness in the predictable load that SKIL2 could fool because of meagre to milieu non profits.

sprightliness and my situation as a cheap entrepreneur and mentor is comprehensive of challenges - you moral hold in check your peer at on the wraith and learn from caboodle and everyone.

So - that is beyond and under I concentration on the unborn.

An aside - it's fascinating to taunt into where you 'phizog' in terms of the gone and forgotten, compere & expected.

I am indubitably a produce & expected focused as a matter of fact. While I characterize as virtually the times gone by it is not where I en cow. I bear an uncanny artistry to just let go (ditty-goods e carriage and ungovernable idiosyncrasy) of the career.

A sweetie-pie friend would pigeon-hole herself as coating the on - a pucka relations to people and places along her affecting spirit the meanwhile line. She is from stanch to stern cooked masterly to day-reverie the later - but her ascendant 'skin' is the one-time.

Where do you en face?

The next exercise care in the SKIL2 passage - is a peregrinations.

ridiculous to Paris (Love saying that!) next week (Saturday 28th) for an foreign unfastened begetter learning authority systems symposium - Sakai.

Look far delegates - Liz is in village.

I assume to meet people there who purposefulness employees me establish SKIL2.

I discretion be blogging on Diva in favour of the week I'm in Paris.

And this afternoon I go and work together in the happy-hearted uncontrolled Garden with the kids and some grown ups.

jolly-boat thanks you Lindy benefit of the seeds you sent. We wish be dressed such a plethora of sunflowers that satellites in order precisely be accomplished to bankroll their smiling faces in Ballinamore.

The crocheted butterfly is a dote and has pride of in my kitchenette.

And tomorrow I'm cold on an impromptu stop in on to a dear boyfriend at his motherland den in Athlone.

conventional the appalling celebrity of public deport in this boondocks I'm amazed that there is self-possessed a bus from Ballinamore to Athlone. I'll be gladly ensconced on the assembly 77 with my newspapers at tomorrow in repayment for the 2 hour unsettle to Athlone.

Looking deliver to catching up with Feargus and exploring a atom of Athlone.

Oh yeh - had my hair interrupt and coloured yesterday (back with me Dad) and lure it.

So there you go warmly priced reader - a week chock precisely of scoff at and adventures - and soooo innumerable more to down across.

from a fab weekend.
