This made me smile. I’m using a new bag - a gorgeous little crossbody that my daughter gave me for my birthday a few days ago. It’s much smaller than I usually use, not really an everyday bag. What made me laugh is that it does represent my life this week - feeling full and overloaded like I can’t possibly fit another thing in … and whatever is in there (my mind and my bag) is really hard to get out!
Funny I should see this just as I get home clutching my bag rather than carrying it over my shoulder because the strap has just broken, probably because I've been overfilling it for too long....hmm!
Haha I love that question from your friend. I need order and organisation, otherwise I go crazy. I feel like my life is pretty much like my bag but me myself a hot mess that keeps making stupid mistakes!
Today’s disaster discovery was during the six months my windows have had masking tape on as I slowly painted them (distracted a lot) the sun has caused them to fuse to the glass. In trying to remove it it’s chipping the four layers of paint I’ve painstakingly been applying for weeks.
Yesterday’s disaster was taking a wrong turn on a walk, meeting some friendly dogs which distracted me from the app on my phone telling me I’d gone wrong and my phone running out of power before we made it back to the correct track 🙈
Oh no!! The paint!!!! That is exactly the sort of thing I would do... In my mind I love order and organisation - it just does not seem to manifest in any aspect of my life, internally or externally!! Ok...I need to think what kind of bag that would be!! 🤣 Perhaps a tote bag with a particular slogan...🤣
Perhaps of a duck 🦆 paddling its we legs off? It looks like calm and order on top but I’m just flapping around underneath?
Yeah the paint has been a frustrating discovery… If it was a thing I could throw out the window I would, but since it IS the window and they’re expensive to replace and has nice colourful glass panes. It shall stay and I’ll be scrubbing for the next few weeks it seems.
I don’t even know how I can have order, it does seem impressive considering what’s going on in my mind 😆
Good luck! Thank you for your magnificent masterclass! I will have to post tomorrow as no wifi etc etc.
How you describe where you're at right now is how I live my life. I find if I can embrace the chaos, then all is well. x
...and that is why we get on so well 🤣. Definitely kindred spirits 💕. Hope the journey to the SW went well, have a lovely time my darling! xx
Love this !!! You do make me giggle … and feel slightly more relaxed about everything …. Thank you xxx
Oh I'm so pleased!!! I mean if we don't laugh we'd only cry!?!? Life is a colourful, messy bag...and that's ok ❤️

Brilliant!!! Sounds like a gorgeous bag I must say! Love that about things being hard to get out - absolutely have those moments 🤣🥰
The latter, definitely the latter !! 👛🚮
Your masterclass was incredible yesterday, took so much from it, so inspiring!
Aaw thank you, you are so gorgeous!! Maybe we need to go bag shopping 🤣🫶
You look so well on it all! ❤️

Well if that isn’t a life metaphor I don’t know what is!! Sounds like the bag needs some TLC 🥰❤️
