So now I've told you some highlights of my life and you now know what I've been through. Hopefully that gave you some inspiration that no matter what you are going through just rise above it and carry on! Currently I'm just sitting on my living room couch, with my Starbucks coffee! I really like my living room. I have a cream couch with a clear coffee table in front of it. I have pictures of some journeys I've been on in big frames up on the blue walls and of course, my tv. I really like decorating too, I'm quite good at it. I would actually love to have a dog but it wouldn't really be fair to it as I do travel a lot. In my bedroom I have a really nice scrapbook that I take everywhere with me. I stick in pictures of places I've been and sights I've seen. As I mentioned, I made jewellery and pots and all sorts of other stuff. I still do. In fact I'm going to go to the garage (which is my work place) to work on my brand new necklace design. My garage is pretty messy but I don't mind it that way. Usually I'm really picky for everything to be clean and perfect but my garage is the only exception. My garage is more like a huge room than a garage. It has nice grey and white walls with fairy lights hanging up on the top. In the middle of my atrium floor there's a long desk/ table with a sewing machine, weighing machine, ring sizer which I use for choosing the size of a ring when I make rings, faceting machine which includes cutting and edging process, which provides perfect edges to a ring and a jewellery engraving machine which just engraves things on the jewellery I make so that if someone wants their name or a quote on their order, they can get that. Next to that I have a very messy wide desk with a mat on top of it where I actually make my designs. At the back of the garage I have a little desk with some paper and this is usually where I think of designs and ideas. Right now someone named Kelly wants to buy my brand new necklace called "relax." It's a yellow necklace with a heart in the middle saying relax. Each item comes with a little card explaining what that product means or why it's named what it is named. For example the relax necklace comes with a small yellow card saying: relax! Give yourself a break and sit down with a nice warm drink! Watch a movie and just take some pressure off yourself. It has a little smiley face at the bottom and then says "thank you for purchasing!" It also says on the packaging that everything is handmade. I will work on my new necklace and update you guys later.
So basically I've totally done planning all the materials I will need and now I just have to go get them. I'm thinking about doing it tomorrow though as it's already 5pm and I would like to do it then so I have more time and I can get exactly what I need without any rush. I'm actually getting quite hungry though so I guess I shall need to go food shopping to get something for dinner.
I get my blue boots on with my yellow coat and my green cross the shoulder bag on and go out the door. I notice that it's a really nice sunset. The sky is purple and pink at the same time as yellow. It's actually very pretty. The closest shop is only about a 10 minute walk from my house, so that's good. I'm on my way to the shop when I see someone littering. Littering is literally my pet hate. I hate it more than anything in the world. It's totally wrecking this planet and destroying every living thing on its way. Just hold on to whatever it is you decide to throw on the ground for an extra 2 minutes and put it in the flipping bin!! It makes me so ashamed to see someone litter and it makes me really think, this is the world we live in. People don't think about all the damage we are doing by being lazy. If you are reading this, no matter where you are do not litter! I repeat Don't do it!!
I am arriving at the shops now, after waking past the benches and the floors and of course going across the bouncy bridge. I pick up one of the medium shopping baskets and carry on. I think I will cook chicken and rice for dinner as it's not difficult to cook but on the other hand it's not too unhealthy. Walking around the shops I see a few things I need, put them in the basket and finally I checkout. I just walk home silently wondering what my family is doing at that very moment.
I get in my back door and gently place the heavy bag on my kitchen counter. I take my coat, boots and bag off as I start to unload my bag. I bought a 5 pack of juicy red apples, broccoli, carrots, asparagus, corn, rocket leaves, chicken, uncle ben's original rice and I thought I would treat myself to some pom bears.
I really can't be bothered but I'm going to have to start making dinner, I'll get back to you once I'm done.I made my dinner and just finished it. I think I must have accidentally bought the spicy flavour of rice because I drank about 4 and a half glasses of water! All done now which means I have the night to myself. There's this really good tv programme on tv right now called "biscuit outta here." It's basically where a bunch of random people get put on tv and they all get together in a group and have to go into different rooms. Each room has a different challenge and they all include biscuits! Eventually someone wins the whole game and they get 30,000 dollars worth of biscuits of their choice. It's on till 22:30 which is 1 and a half hours away so I think I will watch this, make a cup of tea and then jump into my warm, cozy bed. Goodnight sleep
Tight don't let the bedbugs bite!!
