my dorkiness just hit an all time high...

Hey everyone. I thought I would share a super dorky moment I had today...all in the aid of notebooks. Many many of you know I am obsessed with notebooks, diaries and journals of all kinds. However, I have been searching for the exact right brand that suits my style perfectly and yesterday I found it!

It was a notebook I have had for about 6 months and not used yet (a familiar story, as I can't stop buying them) It was perfect sized to fit in my bag, could take my favourite inky pens without going through the page and was lovely and thick too. Best of all it was super cheap and from a big brand supermarket nearby! I went out today to go stockpile some more and to my absolute horror...they didn't have any!

I...freaked...out

Yup, I'm ashamed to say that I hassled the guy that worked there to go search in back and anywhere they might be, but to no avail. This evening, I searched online. The shops website and even Ebay! Then, I posted this on facebook... 

"this is a (sorta) desparate cry for anyone who lives near an asda (not the great yarmouth one though!) I need your help!"

Oh yes, I was asking people across the country to help me track down these notebooks...I hit new levels of dorkiness. I have since calmed down a little... and will wait until tomorrow to call local stores!

*cringe*


Have you done anything that embarrassing? Do tell, i'd love to know that I am not alone!

happy birthday mum!

Today is my mum's birthday...I won't share how old as I don't think she would forgive me! But its a big one today! 

We spoiled her today as she deserves and had a lovely dinner... although I wish my little sister could have been there too...(I get to see her in a week though!) 

Ever beautiful and ever fabulous, she is my inspiration as a mum myself and I just want to say Happy Bithday.

Love You Mum!

all shook up...

Hi, I have had such an exciting day today. I have learnt a lot (details to follow soon) and soul searched a lot too. In an effort to make even my wildest dreams a reality I am gonna shake things up around here. Over the next few weeks you will probably notice some changes here on Curious Key...some will be subtle (you might not even notice them) and some will be obvious. But, I am hoping that all the changes will make for a better place to come, sit down, take a few minutes and relax.

My head is full of plans, hopes and dreams and I will be working furiously into the night, trying to get them all on paper before they disappear. 

I hope you like all the changes that are to come. The first one that you may notice is I am changing the name I use to sign off my posts. I will use my real name from now on. I feel that Missy is a personal nickname between a few close friends and that it doesn't represent me or my blog properly. 

So hi, from your new (but same) blog host Danielle! I hope you will love all the changes that are on the way.

Love Danielle
