To dream the impossible dream

For a while now I have had a dream of jacking it all in and opening my own old fashioned sweet shop with rows of glass jars filled with sweets. This started about this time last year when I was facing the possibility of redundancy (I survived it and am back at work)

When I have days like I did today I start to dream my impossible dream. I am someone who needs to keep busy, I am no good at doing very little. Since returning to work last week after my maternity leave I have found myself short of things to keep me busy during work hours. This is for serveral different reasons that I won't go into on here. Most people have said that I should enjoy the quiet as it won't last long. So I have spent my time thinking of things I can sell in my sweet shop and partaking in a bit of internet shopping!
On the plus side, one of my collegues has just come back from a week in Las Vegas and brought back some Taffy for us in the office. Taffy is one of my favourite sweets that I can not get very easily here in the UK I think there is a reciepe for it in my book and I am really looking forward to making it!

I want to have another go at gummy bears this week, will do it one night after work once Nathan has gone to bed
