Do-it-yourself!
Why did it never before occur to me, that, if I needed something that's made of wood, I could simply build it myself? - Because I somehow have this holy believe in "old" furniture.
More concrete: I believe, that an old piece of furniture is doing its job better than a brand-new one, because the older one has more experience doing what it needs to do. It lived through more things, and brings a very different athmosphere as well.
Nontheless, yesterday, after seven years of sleeping in other people's beds, on sofas, on a mattress on the floor, ... I finally decided to build my own bed! It will get old too, and we will build up experience together! Ha!
So here it is:
And it even has a HUGE space beneath it to stow all the stuff that doesn't fit anywhere else. It's amazing!
I'm sorry, I don't have time to work, I need to cuddle with my new bed...

Enjoying the changes, that come through painting and clothes. The small one is nearly finished now.
Apart from that I'm packing, unpacking and repacking boxes, and shuffle them from one place to another. When did I collect all that stuff? One day I need to be strong enough to simply throw 90% of it away.. - One day.

Dear Diary (03)
Dear Diary,
one of the things I enjoy most about living alone is that I can put everything wherever I want it to be without anyone telling me that it wouldn't belong there.
As a matter of fact, I now have my sprout-O-mat in the bathroom, as well as an umbrella (you never know when you will need one); my office-collection spends its time unlovedly in the hallway, and my kitchen-cupboards not only hold my full boardgame-collection, but also the street theatre costume of the mutant spider-bride, a drill stand, a sander, and everything else a woman living on her own could need.
What a pleasure!
Your's,
XXX

New Spaces
I finally moved!
The second-choice flat is smaller than first-choice one, but there's still a tiny little spot for my workshop-space. So it's big enough. And since I managed to talk the landlord into giving me a basement-room as well, everything seems to fit in. Hooray!
(Only Minus in moving: I miss internet and phone.)

Dear Diary (02)
Dear Diary,
today I was very happy because I was going to sign the contract for my new huge and pretty flat in the evening.
Unfortunately the 88yo landlord forgot that I had called to say "yes, I want it!" already and spent the day waiting for my phonecall, until she finally gave the flat to someone else. I can feel fate laughing harrassingly about me.

On my way
"Won't be finished today - too cold"
I found this in the main shopping street of Stuttgart, and it weirdly mirrors my mood: I feel like saying the same to my commissioners. There was spring just two weeks ago. Where did it go to?

"Paint me a sheep!"
That's what my flatmate, The Princess, gave me one evening, as an excuse for staying up longer than he actually was allowed to. I instantly fell in love with it.
