Energy Rush

| | Tickle My Senses (4)

I feel so energised today I have no idea what's going on, perhaps because I came to terms with certain things thanks to my Kekasih who reminded me who I am, bless him. I received a sweet unexpected email from him while he is somewhere out there on the road and it so made me smile from ear to ear, such a wonderful surprise. I have some energy rush and it's such a strong one that I could face going to my favourite love-hate store today to buy storage boxes for some clothes.

I have a major moth problem this year that needs to be solved as soon as possible so there is a plan of attack which I started last week and today 3/4 of the plan has been accomplished: cleaning out wardrobes, drawers, reorganising them, putting clothes that I don't wear in bin bags so I can take them to the charity shops and putting all the moth repelling products where they belong. Some of my good woolen garments have already been damaged by the little buggers, hence my drive to nip this problem in the bud.

Tomorrow morning I'll be getting up at 07.00 to go to my first car boot sale here in London which will be at the car park of the hospital where I was hospitalised almost a year ago. I'm on a treasure hunt for nice English porcelain teacups and saucers with bright colours, flowers and wonderful golden rims, the ones that only exist in the UK and in fairy tales. I want different kinds, colours and sizes because each day calls for a different angle or view, I'm not a plain woman and neither will be my teacups *hehe*.

This Sunday I will be meeting up with an old friend from the Lowlands. We have been friends for ages while I was a teenager but we lost contact ever since I moved to Amsterdam to study and live there. I haven't seen her in a long long time. She will be here to film/make a documentary and I'm really looking forward to seeing her for a few hours. She'll send me the details of where she'll be staying tomorrow so we can make plans, she wanted to see me on Monday as well after a shoot somewhere North of London.

Work is good and I've finished a lot over the last few days. I'm pleased with myself for making such good progress. I do feel that at times when you need to solve a problem [design-wise, coding-wise] it's best to put it away for a while and try again later. I did that with some php files that I needed to adjust. I had been staring at them for days but couldn't come up with a solution so I worked on other things in the meantime until this morning. I solved the problem in half an hour, two problems actually... Taoism *hehe*

Well I'm off to enjoy my weekend, have a good one yourself!

It's fantastic to hear that you are full of energy! :) I wish I felt like that everyday :) I guess that one has to work to achieve those levels of energy. As you well said, coming to terms with certain things like negative experiences that are in the past, or negative people definitely help.

Glad to hear that work is good :)

Did you find the saucers and teacups? How was your meeting with your friend? :)

Hope that you enjoyed your weekend viendrin :)

Hi Amiga! I have so much energy that I totally forget to reply to lovely comments like yours :( because I'm constantly busy but some projects are almost done so I can continue with more interesting ones which is something to look forward to! Oh yes I'm getting rid of people that are not worth spending time on, both private and business-wise and it's a relief!

I didn't find my fairy tale cups and saucers yet but I know there are four with my name written on them in invisible ink waiting for me to be found one at a time, so I'm patient, very patient :) The car boot sale was awesome and I will go there again next month!

Meeting was fantastic, although very strange because I was in a place where I would never ever been if it wasn't for my friend who was supposed to film there. We have a 20 year gap of 'no contact' but it felt like yesterday and it was truly amazing to talk to her again, the weirdest evening in a long time but strangely amusing, odd and fun!

I loved the comment of your name written on the cups and saucers with invisible ink :)

"Oh yes I'm getting rid of people that are not worth spending time on, both private and business-wise and it's a relief!" I think your post helped me to finally decide to do the same. I say finally because I had been lying to myself for a while believing that perhaps with more time and by meeting more maybe a relationship would flourish. I also thought that perhaps I didn't contact my "potential friends" enough...anyway, now I see that there is nothing wrong with me :) and I'd rather not waste time with people that as you said are not worth it :)

Have a lovely sunday amiga :) Hugs,

I bet your name is written with invisible ink on some items too ;) You'll find them over time :)

I'm flattered to hear my post helped you and I'm happy that you looked after yourself that way. Of course there is nothing wrong with you, there's nothing wrong with loving yourself and setting your boundaries. It takes two to tango and people who are just time wasters will step on your toes and hurt you if you'd try to dance... They will never be able to follow your rhythm...

I think you'd understand what I'm saying ;)
Hugs my friend!

ME? I don't think so... tsk, pffft....]

Indulgence: English full breakfast once in a while when not counting calories, Indonesian fried rice and a Sateh [Nasi Goreng] like my great grandma used to make, Thai Tom Ka Kai or Thai Green Curry Noodle soup original traditional recipes, definitely a peaty Islay Scotch preferably shared with my best friends in Scotland [Inge and Frank] and a Dutch coffee when I'm in Amsterdam with a piece of Dark Chocolate!
