I’m Stupid…

Posted on by

coz I’m ill by overwork and I’m dealing with the consequences… I’m gonna stay away from computer and blogging for a while until the inflammation is gone.

I can hardly type because of severe RSI, a combination of Tendinitis [upper arm], Bursitis [shoulder blade] and Carpal tunnel syndrome [wrist and forearm]. Being in denial or trying to stay a tough cookie is not gonna do me any good. So for once in my life I’ve dropped the Capricorn attitude [read: stubbornness, perfectionism and perseverance] and stay away from my computer if I don’t have to work. So no emails, no comments. I will be reading though but in silence.

Not a good time either since I’m in the middle of designing a major online shop for an important client. They approved my sketch last Friday, I’ve just finished another and I’ll need to get the shop done by the end of the month… I’m doing work that normally at least two people would do: one developer and one designer: I guess I’m paying for it in a way. So if I don’t rest, all of this would be a pointless effort and I refuse to go there…

Speak soon!

Moon Energy

Posted on by

The dust has settled after a week and I even heard an apology yesterday. It seems that whenever there is a full moon, things get heated at times. I do believe in the energy of the moon, the power of Chandra, the lunar effect, and normally I take some distance because I know things can get tricky, this time I forgot and only realised when it was already in progress and hurtful things were said and done. I try to be patient and sit out my time really, so I have been busy getting my life back, taking small steps.

I’ve set up my business bank account last Tuesday when I went over to my accountant to meet up with someone from the bank. All the papers are signed and filled in and all the questions are answered, it will be a matter of a few days before my account will be opened. I had to call MvdM. for some details while we were doing this and decided to go over to his place after my meeting. I had to give MvdM. his passport back and have him sign the last bit of paperwork. We ended up playing cards, a game called Bennies, which was fun although we still need to finish it…

I haven’t been feeling well this whole week and I guess it was caused by me being over-enthousiastic last weekend when I spent time with MvdM. and W. on Saturday. I was supposed to go there for a few hours so I brought chocolate cake and MvdM. provided coffee. I bought a nice orchid for W. because he has a new job [for Dior] at Harrods since a few weeks. And I ended up staying late… I was fine the next day, just really tired but of course I had to push my limits again since this girl only seems to learn the hard way constantly.

I went out that Sunday because I had to look for satin ribbon which I couldn’t find; I’ve been sewing a dress. I took my favourite dress apart and used it to make a new one. It’s a beautiful dark chocolate satin fabric and it’s almost finished, I only need a small hook and eye and some satin ribbon for the straps. So I had to go out and try to get these bits and pieces. But by the end of the day I was totally drained, ended up in bed at 17.00 and have been sleeping for six hours. I would like to finish the dress before next Thursday because I want to wear it that evening [More about that later this week].

I’m taking it slow still and haven’t done much this weekend, just relax a bit. I’m gonna try to get some rest so I’m off to bed now and leave you with a perfect gift of nature…
