OK.. There have been some changes..
My old blog name of "wyldwych" has been replaced by "msmcdonagh".. I changed it to reflect how I feel about my name being out there, also because I wanted to move away from being anonymous on the internet.
I used my nom de plume to hide behind, to be someone other than the real me. So I changed it.
I also started a new blog, this one is called : Forty Plus Fat and Fabulous
http://www.fortyplusfatandfabulous.blogspot.com
I wanted to explore what it was like being over 40, and being creative, alternative, and funky, with a fashion bent, only not high fashion, rather individual fashion.. To prove that its not just young people who have the monopoly on looking good, whatever shape or size they are. I may do hair and make-up bits (no I'm not a trained make-up artist.. just have 30 years of practice!), creative makes, shopping hauls, etc.. I suppose my post yesterday was the start of that, so I'll post that one there too.. so that I can share with everyone..
While I'm not trained in anything in particular that I could consider bloggin about, I thought I'd start with my creative side. I feel the need to share what I do have, what interests me, is bound to interest others too.
I'm kind of using it as a way of stepping into a more confident me too..
After all it took me till I was 37 to step behind a microphone to start singing, its about time I started putting the rest of my life in some sort of order.. of returning to my creative roots, instead of hiding it away, sharing it with the world.. I've always enjoyed my hauls of charity shop finds, but was embarrassed at times.. Some of my friends have wondered down the years how I manage to find things that I like, the key is looking and not always looking in the same place..
Well, its going to be my world and I might as well enjoy it, instead if hiding my light under a bushel, its time to step out into the world and show it what I'm made from! I don't intend to slip slowly into my middle years a wall flower, instead I expect to go kicking and screaming!!
