Wow, Grl, that's an ambitious renovation project. Good for you. That will definitely keep you busy for a while, probably a good thing. Are you putting a pole in anywhere? wink

Sunny!

Nope, reality hit and I realised that I would be able to twirl on a pole without hitting the furniture and breaking appendages.

The works on the house will keep me busy but I am also getting slightly stressed out at all the things that need to be done.

It's no use to go back to yesterday because I was a different person then.

The flat reno sounds like a lot of fun! Work and maybe a little stress, but you are going to love it when it's done. You get to make it your own. It's everything that YOU want!

Yes, Ginger. The making it my own oart sounds exciting! I have never had a place to my name, even when M.

I just wish that the cost of making it my own isn't so high (in more ways than one).

The time will come
when, with elation
you will greet yourself arriving
at your own door, in your own mirror
and each will smile at the other's welcome,

and say, sit here. Eat.
You will love again the stranger who was your self.
Give wine. Give bread. Give back your heart
to itself, to the stranger who has loved you

all your life, whom you ignored
for another, who knows you by heart.
Take down the love letters from the bookshelf,

the photographs, the desperate notes,
peel your own image from the mirror.
Sit. Feast on your life.

by Derek Walcott

Sit quietly, the answers will reveal themselves when you least expect them to.
The past is gone, the present is a gift and you need to focus on today, allow the future to reveal itself when it is ready.
