Bug-a-boo
I have a bee in my bonnet this morning and I don’t mind sharing it with you. I am so sick of having to sit behind a desk doing a job I hate – working two jobs – just to stay afloat every month. It’s not on.
I, like a lot of you out there, am destined for greater things. I’m a people person and I need to be creative. I need to be my own boss. I need to be able to create great things.
I want to be able to wake up and write (like the great Chica). I want to start my own business and dress the windows of the shop myself. I want to be surrounded by eccentrics and have meaningful conversations, even on a Monday morning. I want to be surrounded by great works of art, by the likes of Mark Ryden and local artists that can’t get a break. I want to read wonderfully dark stories and flick through the best comics. I want to be surrounded by beauty.
But something always stops me and it’s the mundane modern life. Rent, council tax, bills – petrol, gas, electric, water. They bore me.
I also want to travel. I want to wake up every day to a new day filled with possibilities and adventure. I want to live like a pauper one day, like a queen the next. I want to do things that terrify me.
One day, my friends, one day.

We are so alike! I read this and thought I wrote it (maybe a very close version is in my diary under my bed)
It will happen for us, we are both Fabulous!!
I second that! Glad I'm not the only one who feels like this; I think you read my mind! x
We are all three fabulous !!
I hear you. Last week, The PK and I were going to lunch together, but before I left the office, I went surfing on-line to find homes for sale in Costa Rica. I actually found three or four that would be in our price range should we sell Palace Peanut.
I printed them out and we perused them over our fish and chips at lunch time! ;)
Never hurts a girl to dream, does it??? ;)
