Mother dearest.
I absolutely love having half day morning shifts. Start early and finish early, and goes super fast for me too. It leaves me feeling lighter in spirits too. I've actually been feeling pretty good about myself too, as of late. Today I've eaten pretty good, got some exercise and got paid, so I'm still getting closer to becoming debt-free.. for the time being anyway.
In other news, my beloved little home-ware shop (Jaffa) I always find myself taking a look at in is closing down in a couple of weeks. Good thing out of this: SALE! But I'll really miss that place, going in there for a nice look and nice chat with the lady who.. I don't even know her name come to think of it, but she's lovely and is great to have a yarn with. She was kind enough to come into work and let me know of the dark news and also to let me know that bit of bright news out of it, there being a sale. She knew I had my eye on the big striped chest there and have admired it for awhile. It's pretty expensive but I can understand why, running your own shop wouldn't be easy. Especially for her type of shop and in its location.. being in this ghost town. So anyway back to the chest, it's now on sale and I now have it on lay-by! It's beautiful. I also couldn't help myself to buy a fragrance diffuser, dark chocolate flavour - it smells delicious! Reminds me a lot like coffee too. Everything in the shop is on sale. Which reminds me, the "SALE" signs in there are all falling off and wilting... I told her it's definitely a sign that she shouldn't go :) But oh well she's gotta do what she's gotta do.
I just overheard Banksy being mentioned on the news in the background, the controversial anonymous graffiti artist from Britain. I love his work; it's clever, witty and has meaning to it:
This afternoon I hopped on my bike, and rode down to the local conservation park at Mt Scoria, and had a fair look around (and managed to snap up a few pictures as above, excluding the first one)... seeing as I haven't actually taken a journey on the nature trail there up until now. It's pretty nice actually and looks good for photo-taking fun, with decent scenery. I like the whole "lost in the woods" theme. Not that it's very 'woodsy' there. Anywho, these are just a few snaps. So long.
