Now Playing: tom waits - the heart of saturday night
Topic: self-portraiture
Around this time last year, when applying for the Toyota Travel Award, I posted about my revelation that I could actually conceive of letting go of all my major furniture items apart from my piano and dresser, and if push came to shove my red ribbed-velour lounge suite, in April this year if I'd been successful in my application.
Although I didn't win that award last year, I am now actually in the position of offloading many of my belongings, particularly the larger items; and even, I have now decided, my bed, if I can find a taker. And only a few months after I would have had to if I had won that award. Funny how things go, eh?
I've managed to find homes for most of my larger items - including the dresser and the red lounge suite above (though I am keeping one armchair which I use and abuse constantly whilst at my computer). The only major item I haven't found a home for is my blue refrigerator. It is full of awesome (the fridge itself, that is; the contents are questionable...) But that too will have to go.
Meanwhile, I'm considering a new 365 Days project to begin on the day I move to Brisbane, but I'm not convinced I'm not utterly crazy even thinking about it.
And, although this move is partially prompted by the need to repay debts and save money, I am entertaining the thought of joining a gym once I'm settled and have some work sussed. I need to get back into shape - though I've not put back on that much weight I didn't reach my goal weight, so need to work on that again.
Though that may be delayed depending on what the odd lump is in my upper abdominal area, just below my ribcage. The strange spherical lump I have now dubbed Heffa which a doctor will be taking a look at on Monday (assuming she doesn't call in sick again, like she did yesterday!)
But right now? I think I'm going to get me some serious bed time. Goodnight x
