"The Wisdom of John"

"Time you enjoy wasting, was not wasted." 

-- John Lennon

Today, after work I had this feeling of now what? Going home and finally not having much to do. Nothing to do. Everyday and weekend for 6 months, I've had things to look into, people to hire, work to get done, ideas that needed spinning, contractors to book. Now there is only a fence to be built, landscaping, and bathrooms left to be done. Compared to all that has been done, that's not very much.

Bathroom guys come back tomorrow, landscaper to pop by Wednesday or Thursday. Plans done, ideas done. A lull between projects. I know I will find other things to do, but there was a feeling of the fun is ending. I love this process. Decorating, creating, making it mine. My touch, my style. Me.

For a girl whose never really felt like she had a home, a safe place, a quiet place, a place showing who she really is, this is a huge deal.

As I was getting into my car, I had this epiphany, followed by; 'I could work on my Social Work portfolio due at the end of August, but who wants to do that?' That time spent I wasn't so much looking forward to. Hence the start of the blog. Time spent reminiscing and sharing my experience and not doing my portfolio. Time wasted? I think not.
