Before I go into the full details of this a little bit of a disclaimer. I had the problems I’m writing about back in December but didn’t write about them as it was going through compensation and a long chore of sorting out. I’m in part writing this as a warning and in part writing this as a still not overly happy with the entire situation that Apple created.

Whilst I’m all for being busy, the last few months have had that extra sprinkle of eeep on top. I’ve been very lucky that work has not even let up with the expected Christmas lull. The downside of this has to be my lack of blog and own project working on. As many of you know this past year I’ve been battling a few health issues and as a result some of the treatments have taken a lot out of me. This has all added up to my usual good coping mechanisms for work loads to break down.

I’ve just finished putting up the new flavour which replaces the one month only Cherry Pink for October flavour design. The format is a little different but I’ve kept a lot of things from Cherry. I hope you like it and I’ve brought back the wood as well… I missed it.

9rules today launched Ali 2. I’m going to post later on my thoughts on the design (so far being a thumbs up), but for now wanted to do shorter post in house blend about the launch. My thoughts? Yay and many other positive affirmations come to mind. I’m thrilled and enjoying the new features.

As of last night I just finished the rough theme make up of Cherry, the new flavour for this site. It’s loosely based on the theme I have created for the pink for october site and plan to release as a wordpress theme. Yes, this is the first flavour that in some respects you will be able to own yourself, with a slant on the pink for october theme.

Today I turn 32 and another year seems to have whizzed past. I always got told the older you got the quicker the years seem to pass and this year has really flown by. I’ve done so much business wise and been through a fair chunk personal wise. I really feel I’ve turned a corner a bit in many areas of my life.
