Beatrix Potter and the Hope of Benjamin Bunny

Cold and cloudy today. No matter, my work keeps me busy indoors. Watching Beatrix Potter, one of my favorite authors. The clothes, the accents, the lovely homes! I love it all. What I do hate is how her family did not think much of her talent or business acumen. But, of course, this was par for the day as a woman over 30 was expected to be married with children nipping at her heels.

Nipping children is also wonderful, I miss that part of my life actually! Beatirix defied convention and dove right into her writing and painting to become one of our most beloved authors.

Where could I go if I had half the gutts and stick-to-it-ivness of Beatrix? That is exactly what I intend to find out as I can't get any lower to the bottom than I am right now.
