Hey guys, I am trying my best to book a flight to Scotland but it's not going well. It's actually really bad weather so there aren't a lot of flights right now. Hopefully I do manage to get one though because it would be very disappointing not being able to meet Joanne. I've been on all kinds of websites,,, from American Airlines to Swift Air, trust me I've been through them all and I haven't had any luck. I'm getting quite peckish now as I've been very busy on my computer all day....I'm going to go to the grocery store and see what I can find, then I'm going to see what new jewellery order I can start on, have dinner and have another look for flights.
I'm at the grocery store now. I need to get quite a lot of food as I need to get dinner and some snacks and stuff. I'm going to get some haddock for dinner along with potato wedges and baked beans. Not the healthiest but I've been pretty healthy lately and everyone needs a treat sometimes. I just pop some other things like crisps, oranges, bananas, chocolates, vegetables into my basket and head to the checkout. All together it came to 21$ and 50 cents.
As I'm driving home I play the radio and sing to the songs.
I park my car in my drive and get in my house. I hang up my jacket, take off my boots and head to the living room. It's freezing here so I'm putting on the fire which will quickly heat me up.I am now heading to the garage to go start on an order.
The first one I pulled out of my box is one from Karli Jones. She is asking for a ring with a love heart in the middle with
The initials K & L. I think that must be her and her partner's names... that's cute. This particular order is actually pretty easy to make. She also asked for it in silver which I have. I think I have all the supplies ready for it so I crack on. I get the silver ring and a love heart charm and start attacking them perfectly in the middle. I wait a little while for them to go solid and dry and then go to my engraving machine and start engraving their initials. It takes a while but once it's perfect and finished I package it with the little card I add on, I mentioned it earlier and a few extras (candies and stickers). I take it back into the house and place it on the counter so I don't forget to post it tomorrow. Okay now I'm starving which means I should definitely get dinner on. I put the haddock and potato wedges in the oven and heated the baked beans up on the hob. As I'm waiting I turn the tv to the music channel and sing to the latest tunes, what a cool grandmother I am! *beep beep beep* That's the haddock and wedges ready! Now it's time to pour the beans onto the plate. I add some salt and pepper, place the latte on the dinner table and get started. I am absolutely loving this dinner, fish is one of my favourites. Here's a funny story..... Once I was in Antarctica, swimming in the Southern Ocean when a huge napoleon fish came up to me. Honestly it was so funny but I didn't know whether to be scared or flattered by this weird fish staring at me so I just tapped it quickly, to see if it would swim away or anything because clearly this fish wasn't deadly. It started smiling at me when I touched it so I gave him a nice pet until it got bored. It was so cute, weird and hilarious all together, I almost laughed my snorkel off! After I finish my dinner I wash my plate and clean up a little before making myself a coffee, grabbing my computer and sitting on the couch. I Facetime Joanne but I don't get an answer from her as it's probably early hours in the morning. I go on to various flight websites again in the hope I'd find a flight to Scotland and just as I was about to give up I FOUND ONE!!!! I'm beaming with joy, knowing I'm going to finally meet my twin. The flight I'm booking is in 3 days at 6 in the morning. That's really soon oh my gosh, I am so not prepared I need to buy so much... oh well it's worth it if it means i'm meeting Joanne. I booked the flight (finally) and started getting into bed as I'm going to have a bit of a busy day tomorrow. Just before I switch the light off I send a quick text message to Joanne telling her the news!
Goodnight, from a very excited Marianne x
