Big belly laughs at Jen and Fiona’s. Finally.

Gail’s pastries.

Finding the right big sketchbook for Fred.

Remembering that I make Jim laugh a lot.

And then making Will laugh too.

Jonny cooked dinner for us and we talked for quite a long time too. It was a nice evening together.

Got heaps of work done today. Really easily too. Just smashed it out.

And evening of drawing.

And then laughter with Lauren in the kitchen.

Oh and the squirrel up above me, almost within arm’s reach at the park on the way home.

The wedding as whole was lovely. Reena looked beautiful.

The shoe pile during the dancing. Even the uncles shoes.

Making the table laugh at dinner with my vagina pottery.


Jen: Who’s Orangina is this?

James: DONT TOUCH IT

“Who’s Jen flirting with?”

I went for drinks with my colleagues after work. I LAUGHED. I TALKED. I FEEL NORMAL AGAIN. It’s ridiculous how different I feel. 

I bought the organic washed cotton duvet from Muji. For Jonny. And for me. I spent all my money in there. I’m so happy. I’ve dreamt of this moment for so long.


Mike made me laugh after dinner. It got rid of some of the stress. I can’t even remember what he said. But I noticed a difference.

‘Look like an owl’

Sitting and talking to the older woman making a t-shirt bag. It felt really peaceful. It felt like me.


Such a smiley day.

Seeing my Instagram again this morning and all the positive comments. 

Holding a really good group interview. Lots of laughter.

Finding out about my job. Finally.

Having 11 days of holiday to take. In April. HELLO HOLIDAYS. 

Seeing the space for the period party. It’s going to happen! 

….And the guy came up with cunting – vagina bunting! 

Spending the evening texting J. And showing him my pathetic food situation. Followed by burnt toast. 😞
