I want to be Rachel Brice.
I think this is so ethereal and exotic.
It's beautiful.
That style of dance is incredibly taxing. The amount of control you must have over your movements requires such strength. It doesn't really look like she's doing much, but I know from past experience whilst studying dance, that this requires a finely honed skill set, and the ability to work through pain. As does any form of dance, except maybe line dancing or the macarena! hahaha
The hotel/B&B was horrorshow.
The whole situation was a big pile of bullshit as well.
So, it made it really easy to not be interested anymore.
I'm not upset or sad. It wasn't the sort of "opportunity"
we are looking for. Since it's more of a liability and got slim chance of being turned into very much, and the plan is to sell it on quickly. I'm not going to move, set up house, and get a business going that I would really like to have, only to f*** it all off in less than a year.
We had too much else going on anyway. I am much keener on getting to France and having the boys come over from the US.
Today was one of the shitiest days we've had in a long time. Everything that could have gone wrong, did.
But, it's alright. We're home now, in our respective pieces. We came so near strangling each other at about 20-25 different terribly stressful points in the shambolic day.
At least we both agreed that we didn't want to do it.
I am going to start packing tomorrow. We want out.
So, let the box hunt begin. A trip to Wilkies to get some packing tape and bubble wrap, and I'll pop a few sharpies in my pockets and pack all day tomorrow!
I can't wait to get the stuff in storage and bugger off to the South of France. Go bake in the sun a bit and swim in the pool. The house we're going to rent there is only $450. USD, so that's even less in GBP. It has three bedrooms, a gorgeous kitchen with an old wooden butcher block and copper pots hanging from the ceiling. It looks just like you'd expect a house to look in Provence. With a pool, a trampoline, and a outdoor fireplace by the pool. We will be able to save money while we're there. And this had to occur, whether we took that offer or not. So, we're just back on course, with less hassle.
I just swallowed Prince Valium, two of them, actually, and they've finally started to kick in. I was so stressed, I had begun this sort of growl screaming every time something else went wrong. It was just time to chill.
I have leaden limb, and lids of lead. I think I shall go to bed.
