Greetings and salutations, spectacular creatures! I trust life is treating you well. So here we are in September! Astonishing really, since it was January yesterday. WASN'T IT???! Just me?
Anyway, I figured it's a perfect time for a stock take! So on with the show...
Making: Toast. Tea. A million dollars. Okay, I made up the last one. But if I manifest my desires the universe will provide it, right? Snorts.
Drinking: One of those fantazamagorical (totally a word) cocktails with a fun little umbrella. Manifesting again! Really drinking tea. Sigh.
Reading: Recently I have read:
The Truths And Triumphs of Grace Atherton by Anstey Harris.
The Flat Share by Beth O'Leary
I Thought I Knew You by Penny Hancock
The Trauma Cleaner by Sarah someone or other. And many more. We could be here for days...
Have also been listening to numerous audio books. I still prefer paper books for fiction but listening is good for non-fiction.
Wanting: A shoulder massage would be nice.
Looking: At old houses, mostly in America, on this Facebook page, for no reason whatsoever. Well, I suppose I need a plan in place, in case I should ever decide to change my identity and disappear forever. An old creaky house in Maine or somewhere should suffice. Yep, definitely been reading too many novels again...
Deciding: Whether I'd like the million dollars (see above) in full or installments. However the universe in all its abundance decides I guess. Just hurry up, universe. Hmph.
Wishing: That shitty shit wouldn't happen to good people.
Enjoying: The arrival of spring and its enchanting sunshine of the last few days. Of course I'll still moan like a b$#ch when summer hits. That's just how I roll.
Waiting: For the universe to get its act together. I'm terrified over here.
Liking: I'll tell you one thing for nothing: I've been getting up early and exercising. And I like it! I mean, not nearly as much as I like cake, but still.
Wondering: About TAFE assessments. I have two to complete and another submitted. The latter one is concerning because I have a hideous sinking feeling I may not have passed. Stay tuned. Sigh.
Loving: The simple things like patting Cookie dog and cups of tea.
And this rather spectacular thing: my tit crushing results were all clear. Woo hoo!
Listening: To Dateline on the telly and YouTuber Sheldon Tweedy (Mickey Blue Eyes is a fan, something to do with soccer or whatever, don't ask me) Cause yeah, it's important to have an informative current affairs programme on to ignore while you faff about on the internet. Works for us.
Considering: Options for my eventual work placement for TAFE. I can choose a type of library. It's exciting! Shut up. I do get out. Usually to the library. Details.
Buying: I would be buying that old house in Maine (back up plan), plus a new one in Sydney, if the universe stepped up. So rude.
Meanwhile, groceries from Aldi it is!
Watching: The Downton Abbey movie. Well, I will be on Saturday. Squeeeeeeeeee!
Marveling: At life, the universe and everything. By everything I mean that million dollars I'm still waiting for... Waiting, waiting waiting...
Hoping: I'm wrong about the failed assessment. Gulp.
Needing: Definitely need a neck massage. In addition to the shoulder massage I mentioned before. Also need a word with the genius who coined this whole manifesting palaver. It's almost like it's made up bollocks or something.
Questioning: So many questions. What to have for dinner? Why do so many young women have terrifying eyebrows? Will I fail the afore mentioned assessment? Why doesn't this manifesting bollocks work? WHY???
Smelling: Roast chooken and choc chip cookies. I've been cooking like a ninja.
Wearing: An attractive array of garments. Currently they consist of : pyjama pants, an old jumper, a fluffy cardigan over it, and a foolish expression. Nice.
Noticing: I couldn't help noticing that Cadbury blocks were $3.50 in our local IGA supermarket the other day. Foolishly I bought one. Should have bought half a dozen. DOH.
Knowing: Knowing when to leave may be the smartest thing that anyone can learn! Flyyyyy...
Ahem. Sorry. Carpenters/Bacharach song. You probs don't know it...
Shoulda went with ABBA instead: Knowing Me, Knowing You! Ahaaaaaa...
Thinking: If I really think about it, I'm sure I'll think of something for Thinking. Hmmmm. I don't think so.
Admiring: My children. I made gorgeous humans.
Getting: Up early. But I already mentioned that. And now that I've been all smug and superior watch me slip back into slothfulness. Serves me right, really.
Opening: Books, handouts, websites, documents and databases related to my studies. It's all happening.
Closing: Facebook. Sometimes. Shut up. I do!
Feeling: Apprehensive about that assessment. Delighted about the mammogram. Also: hungry. What else is new?
Embracing: Early mornings. I know. I need to shut up about that. So I will...
DONE.
And considering it's September right after January I may as well take this opportunity to wish you a happy Christmas and a merry New Year! I'm afraid to blink cause then it'll be 2020...
Okay, I'm off to find some toothpicks to lodge in my eyelids.
