Look At My Beautiful Lawn
I have a tiny enclosed backyard (±24 squared meters) as part of my one-bedroom dwelling and the lawn has given notice and departed for greener pastures a long time ago. Only the sand remained. I wish I had the savvy to take a pic of how it looked before.
I decided to make a plan about this arid semi desert landscape that I called a back yard. The best quote for artificial lawn came to R 9,000. After checking the prices I found that this artificial lawn will cost me much cheaper if I do it myself. There is no ways that I’m going to pay a half-witted idiot R 3,000 for a few hours work. More than half the people in this country does not earn that in a month.
I showed the quotes to my sister and asked her, seen that it is her property, if she would carry half the expense but she said that she cannot bothered with lawn in my backyard and if I wanted lawn there, it was my baby. I said ok, in which case I’ll roll it up and take it with me when I decide to move away.
I tackled the job on Saturday. Four and a half hours and R 6,000 later, I had the most beautiful lawn in Cape Town. And I'd never have to water it again.
I spent a few Rand extra on a few other things. Even the flowers are artificial.
From the other side it looks like this. My sister liked it so much that she reimbursed me with half the amount on the quote on the spot and she wants me to do a piece of her yard as well. Well, at least I’ll know how to quote for the job. She and her husband went out on Sunday and I had to make my own Sunday lunch. I invited BeaPatient to come over for the day and she did the salads. See! My fire is going.
Look at her trying to hide in the only piece of shade around.
And I had to suffer in the sun in front of a sizzling-hot fire to get the meat done. I think next time I’ll make the salads and let her stand in the sun.
Now, have a whale of a week, will ya!

Loving one's self
I am currently chatting with and in the process of setting up a date with an ex-private dancer. I was asked, what do you like about me? After finding out she is just about done with her college to become a veterinary assistant, I told her that I liked that she was doing something in her life to make herself proud and to love herself.
This got me thinking. I have heard so many times how women can never be happy or you can never please a woman. Lets say a woman is in a relationship with you and she cooks, cleans, pleases you in the sack....etc....what does she really have to be happy with? Yes, some women are happy in relationships like this but some others are not.
It is thought that happiness comes from within. Maybe these women that are thought to of being difficult to please or difficult to make happy, feel they have not accomplished much in life for themselves? Of course, this could go for a man also.
Moral of the story....try to avoid getting into a relationship unless you genuinely feel love or liking for yourself. In addition, a person looking to get into a relationship with another should determine if that person is genuinely happy with themselves.
Just a random thought I had today.
Accept negative outcomes in your life....learn from them....appreciate what you have....and build on that. :)
