I've done a bit of online shopping lately which means that I have parcels to look forward to. I am in desperate need of cheering up so I thought I'd make myself a list of nice things in my future:
* Enzymes! So I can eat! Yay!
* David Attenborough tickets!!!!!!
* Rocks! (Yes, I know, but it's only four this time and I'm really confident that these ones will look great under the microscope. I saved about $45 via combined postage, so I'm actually saving money. Really.)
* A seriously good hotel booking for our itsy bitsy Melbourne holiday in September. It won't be posted to me per se but I'll be freighted to it, so that totally counts.
* Books! I couldn't bear the tension of not reading the Solar Clipper tales any longer so I ordered the first three from the publisher. Need. Spaceships.
* Scarves! Because apparently my idea of useful colours does not correspond with current Fashions, and so after a half dozen failed attempts at bricks and mortar shopping I bought some online ridiculously cheap, and with free postage. Some have already arrived. Others, not so much.
* Leggings! Actually armings, because these days I buy leggings and sometimes patterned opaque tights to turn into arm warmers. I'm getting better at selectively warming bits of me so that other bits of me don't overheat to a ridiculous degree. Being limited to scarily-small Asian dress sizes isn't a problem for once - your average S-M leg is about right for my arm :/
* Postcards of my latest work from redbubble! Actually I haven't ordered in the next batch yet, but I've certainly got enough lined up to make an order. So that's just slightly more in my future. I've been trying to make a selection to print at larger scale just to make sure my scaling techniques are working, but I can't choose which one of my children to immortalise.
And tomorrow I have my 4-weekly massage which happens at my house so it also counts as a delivery. By golly I need it.
