I've been missing in action for quite some time, almost 4 months...

| New 'keren brown' Cockatoo - Pink (also available in aqua, and green) |
I had my 2nd severe bone break in 6 months - the first one was in May and was my wrist. On the 15th December I managed to slip over while trying to shut the front door from a storm and smashed my ankle and dislocated it in 3 places - 4 days in hospital, 2 plates, 10 screws and a rod in my leg, no Christmas to speak of, no birthday celebration either, 11 weeks in a wheelchair, 2 surgeries, months of physiotherapy which is continuing and I'm starting to feel like a normal person again and beginning to hobble.
Who would have thought a broken ankle could be so very debilitating? Let me assure you...it is dreadful! We did however manage to get ourselves to the Trade Fair in Sydney in February (in said wheelchair) which was a marathon effort but we did it :o)
At the fair we launched our new 'keren brown' collection of cushions, fabric by the metre and bed linen. I was just so excited and relieved to actually get there as there were many times over the months when I truly didn't think we would make it.
The response to our new collection was truly wonderful and overwhelming.
Here is a sneak peek of rest of the collection due to hit the shores in August (fingers crossed).
