Stress + Writing = Bad Blog Entry!

Having a rest has come as a god send today! I have about 5 minuets in which to write this before I have to go back to the numerous tasks I have to do today. This is the first time I have had a moment to gather my thoughts in honesty, and my thought: 'I'm hungry, I haven't eaten all day'. This cake is taking more time than anticipated and more energy than one would expect from an inanimate object. I don't begrudge doing it though as it is for my parent's wedding, which isn't far away now, at all! 8 hours of solid work on a cake though is a lot in reflection; icing the cakes; cutting the decorations; making sure they fit exactly; making sugar glue; cutting the dowels, stacking the tiers. Just thinking about it makes me want my bed. Honestly, I don't think I could ever do this for a living, the deadlines are too tight. No wonder most professional cake makers are grey! I was writing my speech for the wedding the other night, which I have rehersed over and over again! It suprised me how easy it was to constuct, seen as I am not all that good with words and a soppy git to boot. I never could make it a funny or witty speech like you hear in all the films or at the other weddings. I however do admit to using the line 'I first met', which I promised myself I wouldn't do, but I have to tell them all what my mums partner means to me somehow... so I conformed and used it, but I think I used it the best way possible by going on to say how much she has influenced me! Which she has... I wouldn't be half the person I am today without her... I wouldn't be sat here writing this twaddle at all. To which you are all probably thinking 'Damn that woman for being an influence!'. To be honest, today I don't right blame you. My brain isn't working which is hindering my writing ability... I can almost see the heads hitting the keyboards with boredom! And for this reason I am going to say a hasty goodbye as I am pretty sure I should be doing something else such as doing a cake... tidying the kitchen... hoovering... tidying my room... cleaning the bathroom... dusting.................................
