Why Oh Why Did People Ever Put Carpets In Their Bathrooms ?

 Hello out there !

Long time no blog so I thought I would drop a line or 2 and say I will be blogging more frequently ! I am going to aim for blogging once a day !

Today's thoughts are "Whoever thought bathrooms in bathrooms was ever a good idea ?"

 I have had someone come to put lino down in my ensuite and I have to admit it has taken years and for my sins a carpet has been in my ensuite.It was just one of those decorating and home furnishing jobs that we just got round to and yes we still don't have a light shade in the ensuite either and no I don't know why?

Lockdown has accelerated a few jobs and then at the same time slowed down others , I have got to go back and chase kitchen fitting quotes again .As now the old kitchen is now the bane of my life mocking me at every turn with its fake peeling wood effect covering , I think Stonehenge is newer than my kitchen though I would not be shocked if a bunch of Druids started worshipping in my kitchen as it would just be my luck that my kitchen was built on a sacrificial site probably to Marmite.

The Biggest Leap

The biggest leap is believing in yourself especially when you’ve been beset constantly with setbacks.For myself it has been everything from mental health to being harassed.A pandemic hasn’t helped I’ll be honest and add into the mix a returning university student who didn’t get their graduation or the last year of university experience it’s hard. 

Friends not seen and family nor hugged it’s been a long slog of a year and I’m picking up pieces of self. It starts with a cup of tea then telling the gardens it is pretty . The season Spring is one to embrace and the Tulips are starting to emerge even though one has snapped I’ll blame the cat. The blossom are tickling the trees and there is optimism in the breeze .Not a banana bread is in sight and I never did bake it nor did I watch Tiger King.

The cat I’m sure is happy and I’m happy to have the company of the cat even though it’s nicked the sofa having progressed from nicking my chair.

Sunshine Oh So Beautiful

Today I leapt out on the quest of a walk and I’m honoured to live near some lovely countryside.

But on my quest of a walk I encountered a wizard because all wizards are actually trapped in cat form nowadays.

And of course when you encounter a wizard they ask you three riddles before you can carry upon your quest.I think I might of got one of the questions wrong as the cat I mean wizard did try to climb up my leg vertically!

I kept A Cactus Alive

 It started with a cactus or 3  from Tesco and I thought I can keep them alive , I can be the hero that these cacti’s deserve .And for a while we were a happy plant family staring out through the kitchen window season s com in grand going .But then as lockdown stretched on and on without me even baking banana bread .Also I bought an airplant that has a post box in it , it was lonely in the garden centre which more than likely saw me coming .

I went out to the garden centre again , I masked up and it wasn't busy . The garden is valuable to my mental health been staring at 4 walls for bloody months. And I did pick some other plants in the reduced section as I believe on giving objects that are now on their luck a chance in life.

Oh and I got a knobbly bobbly cactus it’s called Gorden 

“ Gordon’s alive “

So it is all go in the garden even though the weather at the weekend was very much Fools Spring , but still a start is a start and Spring is a very hopeful month I mind after the bleakness of Winter at times.At I think at this very moment in time with can all do with a little seed of hope to plant in our souls , and I have just noticed the first bloom on my tree as well and it makes my heart and soul so very glad.

3 scraps craft challenge

I’m not sure if 3 things craft challenge is a thing but I thought I’d have a go .First was a scarp of lighthouse paper then it was a golden tassel lastly come coloured string.

I already had the white card blank . I stick the lighthouse paper at the top and in the white space I placed the tassel if it was a seed head blowing on the wind . Then I used the coloured string ad the stalk of the seed head .
