11th May, am

 Not really feeling it this morning. Nonetheless, getting ready to work in the kitchen today. Should be good. 

It’s a bit later now. I am here at Blackthorn about 45 minutes early. It’s nice to be early. The grounds here are beautiful. It is a nice atmosphere to be in before starting.

15th June, afternoon

 It’s a while since I’ve written on here. I was cooling today. We made cold cheesecakes. It’s a nice thing to do on a hot day.  I am exploring studying more about ayurveda next year in lieu of doing a counselling course. I might study with a place called ocean in 2024. They have been kind and helpful in explaining the enrolment process compared to local adult education. Also, I expect to possibly be moving next year so there will be some upheaval.

 We made hanging baskets at the Blackthorn. It was fun. We learned more about plants, like what the feed mixes mean for them if we were buying them. I don’t have a burning new love of foliage but I appreciate it. I had a review with my mentor, Sue. We thought once the crafts finish next week, I could maybe start work in the plant nursery. I’m happy to give that a go. See if I develop a new passion for flowers and plants. I am still looking on the website everyday to see if a course for counselling has opened up in Ashford. But still nothing. I’ll be gutted to wait another year, but I might have to.

 I went out for free breakfast at a local church with my neighbour, Claire. I was tempted to cancel and get out of it, but I did go in the end and it was really good. We filled in a feedback form as a thank you for breakfast. They are developing their services and were looking for ideas. When I was in bed at home, I was listening to the radio. It was on the today programme first on radio 4 and they announced the death of Andy Rouke. That was a sad shock. He was the bassist from the smiths. As I was getting ready to go out, desert island discs was playing and it was Simon Pegg. One of his songs was a smiths song ‘when will I accept myself?’ Good song.  I’ve been doing scratch art this morning for my Instagram page. It is fairly basic right now, but as I keep going it will get better. I am prepared to try nowadays. If I don’t there’ll just be nothing. That would be sad.
