19 September - Where am I going???

Lots of delicate issues to sort out this week.  Calverley is quite a small place, and whatever you do you end up upsetting someone.

As a person who tries to be nice to people at all times, it is not a good situation when you know that people are complaining about what you are doing (often without even knowing/visiting/getting involved in what you do).

Last week seemed to be about allaying people's fears about "diary clashes".  One of the things that seems to have become more obvious is, that we need our own noticeboard. We have so many things going on, and not everyone has a computer.  So I need to look at possible locations to have some information up.

Its been a long time...

Time is just passing so quickly.  CC has been doing a lot of reflection...

After each CC we look at things that we can improve and look for solutions.  Have been doing some of that but also setting up lots of events and workshops.   

People ask what CC is, and to be honest it just seems to be evolving all the time.  CC is not about just one person there are many involved, many giving up their time for free or at a reduced cost, others offering support and advice.  At the heart is a passion for creativity, but also enriching life.  Whether that is by just smiling at someone, passing a compliment (more people complain than praise).  These are examples of little things that can really make a difference.

Sometimes it is challenging ourselves to change our behaviour and just make that extra effort.  Lots of people have commented that "I was going to do that...".  If in doubt, just do it.  Don't live to regret an indecision.
