What Happened

What happened to my plan and to journaling a little each day?

I have been reading some good blogs with suggestions for getting on with life and trying to make yourself feel better. I have started a notebook. I print off the entries from here but also have other subjects in it. Such as recipes, gardening, pictures, thoughts & ideas, poetry, letters, emails I want to keep, decorating ideas (but what do I have to decorate) there I go being negative.

I have never grown herbs and I did buy a few at the market. My friend Brenda said she put some rosemary and ginger in a bowl and it smelled wonderful. I did not get either of those. Is ginger a herb? I still want to get rosemary and chives. I bought Gail some yellow daisies at the market that were marked down to 50 cents a pot. They seem to be thriving. Her little garden is looking good.

Gail and I are such candle lovers and scent lovers we have decided to make candles, soap, bath salts, and maybe aromatic beads. We have never done any of this but I printed off instructions and now we need to go buy some supplies. That would give me maybe one new activity that I may enjoy. I will wait and see. I hate to do things that I don't really love to do just to be busy and pass the time. I need to be able to enjoy it. It makes me more depressed to think I am just doing something to fill the hours.

I need to buy some new bed sheets and some beautiful designed pillow cases. Maybe some plain white cases too. Also I desperately need new fluffy pillows. I like a nice cosy made up bed. So does mikael she has always liked to get in my bed because she says it is so cosy. I need new or vintage linen tea towels especially to cover bread in a basket. A new flea market is opening in Nitro on June 30th maybe I will try to get down there Saturday.
