Thank yous and Tissues !!


So I normally don't do an end of yr reflective look back type thingie - usually cos I've never done anything worth shouting about.
But this year I have ... I'm proud of myself and all I've achieved but I know I couldn't have done this without help so this is more of a Oscars acceptance speech type deal !
In no particular order 
Mind on bev road for putting me in touch with the greatest councillor in the whole world. We laughed we cried and we cleared up the mess in my little head. She did this for free and as a volunteer. 
Hopefully me being successful is the best payment I can give her.
To Tarina Duffield - Miss penny feathers - I know peek a view was a long time ago. you gave me a chance to perform and introduction into Burlesque , how a show works and the art of performance. It felt like a massive step and people cheered for me ??!!! - shit a brick !!
To miss Violet Blaze - I love your ass and more importantly I almost love mine too That workshop was exactly what I needed. You show me that having curves is no barrier to taking your clothes off in front of a room full of people. 
Thou I've yet to find some big enough pasties.
You inspire me to be creative with my physical body and to be bold and confident enough to own my space.
To Miss Kiki DeVille I love your face . I love that there's places in the world that you get to do what you do. 
It gives me hope that at some point I might get to work with a big band or a jazz band on some old classic numbers in the future. 
I love there are places out there that welcome artists with that retro style.
To Kitty Beaumont.You taught me to dance and shimmy. You expected me to dance like the other girls so I worked hard to make my body do it. I desperately needed to be one of the girls and you helped me to push myself to be better.
To Andy Ferguson and Vic Collie you two are the people I've definitely complained and whined and bitched and moaned at the most. At best I'm a pain in the arse and at worst the most ridiculous human being on the planet and yet you still message me back ! 
I love you both so very much. You have both helped me be the creative person I always should have been . You two are the kindest people I know. 
You give me boundaries and tell me to sort myself out when I've needed to hear it.
And I've NEEDED to hear it !
To Craig Steer and all tutors I'm sure you've broken me. All I've thought about since we broke up is coming back and the assignments I've got to do .
So thanks for that !?
Lastly to Stephen Toynton . You have stood by me and not murdered me in my sleep as I appear to find new ways to annoy you every day. 
You are the beginning and ending of everything. I couldn't do any of it without you. 
You have grown with me and simultaneously let me grow away then back again. 
I know I'm not the easiest person but I love you very much. 
You don't yell at me too much when I haven't done the house work or forgotten to order any shopping - oopps !
The plan for new year is just more of the same. .. hard work and determination . More work on mind body and soul and more drunken nights out and embrassing fbk posts and pics.
Aren't you lucky............
