Listening
to some Lovers Rock as I type this. I have this really nice groove going on…
but I need to do several other things besides this… *cough*
Blogging once a month
*giggles*
What’s
been happening? Well, for starters I’m doing laundry while reading up on interior design options. Kicking myself mentally for not saving more during Dec
(surprise surprise). I got burnt on New Years Day at Solar Garden so wondering
where the coconut oil Ken gave me disappeared to. It really helped with the
itchiness – the burn is healing and trying to pull my skin back together and
that shit hurts like a BLEEEEEEP. Particularly when I'm trying to sleep at night. NKT
Aiyayaya!
Why is it so cold in this house?!
Just
got back from hanging more clothes to dry. Laundry days. Bleergh. Folding them
is even worse. Let’s just be honest, IRONING them is the absolute worst. Like a
cold witches tits. Yeeugh.
I
wanted to make resolutions (this link is effing brilliant). I’m sure I have some lying around from last year
that I need to dust off. But maybe I should have quarterly ones? Like what I
intend to achieve in this month that then segues into next month etc?
This
is predominantly work related.
In
terms of the fact that I’m turning 31 next month – well that has come as a
surprise to me. I didn’t hexperrit! Lol. 30 seems like a fond blur of hmmm…
rediscovering my youth? Knowing when to stop and get out of some harmful
relationships and letting back in others?
I
TRAVELLED last year tho. I need to do the same this year. I need to get to
Asia. I’ve done Australasia and skipped the islands on the way. Maybe even a
Dubai. Now that sounds like a plan. In fact I’m going to take some of the little
money I do have for this year and put it towards that. Yes. That makes a lot of
sense to me. I know how to exist on very little already. 30 taught me that :D
Ok
now that my mind is made up I’m going to Dubai – when shall I go?
The United Arab Emirates are warm all year round, but the best time to visit is from November to March when the average maximum temperature is 25°C.
Then I can pop by and see Sumaiya in Oman too :D This is
starting to sound like a very legit plan. So much for visiting India two years
ago. Hehehe. I also need to finally go to Lamu tamu and need to plan for that
over Easter/August with the BRFBs.
I am also finally open to settling down so this planning may
or may not involve my current S.O. Yes, I have a specific candidate in mind who enjoys being silly and working with my strange neuroses.
Praying for guidance and the Lord’s blessings. Not just going my way on this
one or any other probable candidates ever again.
Also it's interesting getting to the point where you start to know your own self worth.
To cap off this long rambling post - I need to (besides owning my shit in the new year)
CULTIVATE HONORABLE RELATIONSHIPS
An honorable human relationship — that is, one in which two people have the right to use the word “love” — is a process, delicate, violent, often terrifying to both persons involved, a process of refining the truths they can tell each other.
It is important to do this because it breaks down human self-delusion and isolation.
It is important to do this because in doing so we do justice to our own complexity.
It is important to do this because we can count on so few people to go that hard way with us.
