Personal Reflections on Budget Towing Experiences.

This weekend, I conducted simple tweaks for myself and TRAVELlERS whilst pottering about the place. and my flowers in the lounge are two weeks in and radiant. I sent a pic to my guest as they were for her late father. I have had such great guests for spring, so far.

Whilst wandering about the place, I reflected toward parts of my exclusive life experiences. To include (some years ago …) towing my own caravan around the splendid UK on a tight budget. For which I purchased the run down but cosy ‘tiny house’ on wheels, from Ebay for less than 1k. My family weren’t too pleased. I vanished on a mission to … I did not know where ... I was a confident driver, then. So, I bolted the old thing on to the back of a Hilux Surf I had imported from Japan. And off I went!

All this before another caravan tale of ‘Annona’ that was settled in Wales. Yes. I lived in a Welsh valley for a while too.

Anyway … Feeling nostalgic, I recently carried out much research on tiny houses. I believe any space can be a palace with the right energy. With privacy and respect we can manifest a home anywhere. And those who are blessed with a roof, need to love to dwell in a balanced environment. We must make much out of little. We can all ‘nest!’.

A life to be remembered can only be felt by the owner of that own unique ✨️ adventure. Which is self. Don’t ever forget that when any of you are out robbing ideas and space without any kudos to those who planted the thought. You are not getting as rich as you are for stooping so low. And as soon as mankind has no boundaries to respect the property and privacy of others, there comes turmoil. A chaos bought about with the knock on effect of another putting their own misery toward those who live better. And by that I mean in terms of peace. And peace should always be left to grow organically. Free from intrusion.

Any type of rape is to take without permission. And rape is the boundary we as ‘woman’ set in place 🚫 by our collective right.

That said. For the feminine to allow any other to her bedroom, is giving consent to her privacy. A very different matter to the cowardice of hackers, in terms of spyware and the utilities of recruitment to unlawfully enter a building or trespass on land. This can derive from perpetrators often stuck in their own situations, they would prefer to ignore. For instance a coward waiting to jump ships. Opting in favour of ‘virtual’ squatting in the home and or workplace of another, rather than build his/her own environment, in preference of ideological make believe.

Having said all this, no matter what our circumstances, we just have to live like no one is watching and be grateful for each day. Because as soon as we succumb to bullying and harassment we feed the problem. I applaud any person who has the courage to get up each morning, knowing they can’t manage the outcome. Keep going. This world is full of love. Though sadly, not enough people talk about it. Remember. Society may have stifled us with technology, but our principles do not have to change. It is never a crime to be authentic, with a heart that wants well for others.

June #diary

I have been pretty exhausted. More mental tiredness than physical – but not in a harmful way. A year ago I never imagined things would be like this today. We need to know that life can change in any direction pretty quickly. My life is currently chaotic. I do not have my own kitchen or private garden. Everywhere is public and this takes some getting used to when you are used to spending days or weeks even, in your own head space. There is a balance. I had hoped in my younger years I would be leading a life of leisure by now, but not the case. Yet a part of me would not have it any other way.

I do miss though, not being able to find time to just write in a quiet location, so grabbing a few days away here and there is a life line. I am not posh and whilst I love the thought of being in splendid hotels I would rather just find little spaces to source my inner craft of mood boarding for my project, my writing and enjoying photography. Talking of hotels … beam me up!

My street is still good but the new place is attracting a bit of controversy for no particular reason. This is why a change is as good as a rest … as otherwise we can become embroiled in gossip and small talk which is not good for progress. Don’t mention ‘fence’. Heaven knows what I’ve done wrong now? Yet, we must remain detached and on track for self improvement as life is very short. We are born alone – we die alone and as I always say, ‘ the bit in the middle is to embrace’.

I am enjoying work but it does scare me, as you sort of morph into a person who is in a state of constant giving and this can distract us from our true purpose during our own unique pathway. But this can change. This can change with will power in conjunction with the universe and the light that goes with it. To share love – to not judge and to accept one another regardless of our backgrounds and circumstances. To not intoxicate our brains with problems and addictions – but to find solace with nature and healthy eating in order to promote a longer and more substantial life. To find space for our own time. To avoid jealousy and other worthless emotions. We are one.

I do hope you appreciate the beautiful strawberry moon and a very happy Daddy Day to my one. I had better go as otherwise I will return to Blackpool with nothing done and that is a road to failure. I have a pile of tasks to sort out this week. A constant battle, a battle that I do not entertain. I like it simple. All is well. I wish you the same. Love my kids. Love my family. Love my friends. Nothing will change that and nothing should want to. Love is everything.

By the way I still have my seagull he has visited almost daily now since last year. An ongoing blissful friendship. He drops shells on my head and you may be surprised to know he is actually shy. He is a feathered diplomat. A messenger for peace! Bless my little fluffy fella.

Blackpool #diary

Since June the 13th (my birthday) I have been working very hard on my darling new project in Blackpool. I have felt elated, as everything I love to do has been in one place. Nesting, baking, meeting unconventional people. It has not been easy as you sort of give your time away as you live in a house where other people you’ve never met before are staying. But I do have my own flat. There’s two bedrooms. A large bathroom, lounge and running space for the dogs outside. I am surrounded by seagulls. I really have learned to understand them. They’re such clever beings and work so closely to survive. At the moment, we have three baby seagulls that rely on us to stay alive. Kris my friend from Dogbus has been helping. It has been team work. She has her own bedroom and we are blessed with Alan her hound. My room is my little den. I have no wardrobe just a rail to hang my clothes and some shelves for everything else. It’s full of positive energy and I feel a bit like Cinderella (but I do have the coach…) I’ve got a comfy bed and am still with my unicorn bed linen. Evie and Angel are very happy here. I want to live forever. Plus, I’ve sold my house in Leeds and will have all my own possessions around me soon!

 

I see this as a stepping stone and am already planning my next project to add on to this one. I do not want to be enslaved to a rigid routine, as I am a progressive person. It would make me feel depressed to feel I could not continue to expand. Life is short – don’t let anything hold you back. It is not about money – but, a sense of self worth and focusing on the light and the love that comes from all corners. Set yourselves free to be your highest and best self. You will be surprised what’s out there!

I have been waiting to post a nice photograph of me online to share – but … I am afraid I am not the most photogenic of women and the thought of standing in-front of the mirror all day bores the shit out of me. I am clean and I wear clothes I like. That’s enough. It is what’s inside that really matters. I loved putting a photo of me in my pyjamas shortly after I had cooked breakfast for around 15 people. I’d made them happy so what I looked like wasn’t as important at that time of day. I am so in the zone with baking at the moment! I am trying to collect bits of china too. Give me more hours each day.

Yes, there’s been a few very rude people crossing my path – but confined to emails and the phone, mainly because they cannot get booked in at the dates they want. Then others use ‘leaving a bad online review’ as a reason to ‘try’ and get free stuff. I don’t care about all that. I have a guest book and it’s full of beautiful messages. We can’t suck eggs. All the guests that have crossed my door are just so gorgeous. It may not always be this good – but, whatever comes, bring it on. I am on the journey.

Next week my family are coming here. I think it will be emotional. I need them around so much. To see familiar faces.

Have a lovely week. I am still writing. I am still taking pictures. My best yet. I am still roaming the back alleys for adventures. I see you!

bit of Leeds – West Yorkshire

Roundhay Park in Leeds – West Yorkshire is such a beautiful place of natural charm. It’s a great area to visit. There’s a strip of restaurants in Roundhay – all with outdoor seating/terraces. Much of Yorkshire is full of leafy suburbs. Leeds is a multi-cultural city and everyone gets on. There’s such a good vibe here in West Yorkshire.

This is the Deer Park Pub and Restaurant. I love the natural/neutral finish here. Friendly staff – home cooked menu. So nice when the weathers fine enough to sit out and watch the world pass by! Click on images to see the menu.

This is Hyde Park – Headingley/Leeds – primarily a student hangout. A cross section of just about everyone all chilling out. It’s a favourite haunt of mine. I feel so at home here. If you enjoy a social life you’ll get to hear what’s cool in the neighbourhood. So many house parties and gigs etc.  Or perhaps you’re like me – you just love the atmosphere and then to sneak home and watch movies in your jim-jams during the holidays. Tiff. X
