shiny face-maskers








visualising..........































✥ with both of us unemployed and me unemployable, we calculate a daily budget based on the funds we already have. it turns out that after rent, we've got €10 each per day to spend on food, water, internet, mobile phone credit, bus tickets and anything else we can afford, which will be nothing.... !!!!!

neither jerry or i are used to budget-living to this extreme! but in a way its fun, making the money stretch the distance, and its actually pretty romantic, enjoying all the free things in life like long walks, cooking meals and reading books together on the terrace. jerry even lets me do a pedicure and face-mask on him!

as we sunbathe by the pool, i pick up an art-auction magazine left behind by one of our rich neighbours. its full of andy warhol scribbles worth a million dollars, antique chinese vases and at the back, the real-estate section full of castles and huge seaside villas.

i begin to daydream when i'm reminded of the documentary movie 'the secret' which promises: if you want something badly enough, you have to visualise it every day, in detail, and eventually it will come true.... my brother told me that him and his girlfriend have been designing their dream-house and visualising it for ages... so i begin to note down some ideas. a castle would be nice. or maybe a hillside tuscan villa. tree lined driveway, vineyards, swimming pool of course... this is gonna be a work in progress :o)
