Μερικά άτομα να εγκαταλείψουν τα σχέδιά τους, όταν έχουν φθάσει σχεδόν το στόχο

Thought I'd shock you all today, not only with a title in Greek, but also a new template for my blog (it seemed a bit crazy having snowy trees when outside it's blazing sunshine and 25 degrees)

I'm very good at Greek. Especially taramosalata and tzatziki. 

I'm also very good at lying and using Google Translate.

The Greek is from my old friend Herodotus and it says: Some men give up their designs when they have almost reached their goal.

Good job I'm a woman, then. Otherwise I might have been tempted to give up on my novel. (If it's never completed then no-one can judge it to be a pile of crap. That's how the theory goes)

Here I am, nearly there...

I have such manly hands for a woman...
