Strawberries and Flowers

 

So thanks to my parents being in town for the next who knows how long, honestly hoping right now it won't be much longer, even though they come and go as they please, they are getting on my nerves really quickly right now. I understand why Isaac and Gio may have snapped at my parents when they all were together for a month. Between my dad trying to shove his political views down my throat, which he has known for years we'll never see eye to eye on things and my mom being both an iPad baby and complaining about my choice on decor and what I do and don't have in my kitchen. 

Let's preface this with, at the house in Florida I had a FULLY stocked kitchen. Standing mixer, two different coffee machines a big toaster, griddle, blender, chopper, and all types of kitchen utensils/wares you can imagine a long with different kitchen dishes/supplies. My kitchen wasn't huge but it was big enough for me to have full fledge meals going for a household of 7 people, sometimes 8-9 people. Now at the apartment it's just two people. Myself and Matt. He keeps his stuff in his bedroom and I keep myself in my bedroom and he has allowed me full range of the kitchen and living room considering we have to be civil with each other due to a chain of events. I now don't have a fancy coffee maker, toaster, blender or chopper..I don't need any of those to make any of my personal meals anymore. Nor do I actually drink coffee I might make a pot every once in a while so I have a small one I put away but they don't like that one. Why can I have the same appliances I had back in Florida? One is space, two is I don't need them. I'm not making food for anyone but me and if I make food for others I still don't need big appliances anymore. I like my cute strawberry and flower stuff I been getting. It makes me happy. 

Now I also have a thing about pretty notebooks. I stopped for years buying notebooks because of how my life went. But now, buying 1 notebook every so often even if I'm not using it...it makes me happy. I like seeing them. And I have written in a few now...I actually started writing in one about more personal thoughts. But to have my father groan and complain about me grabbing one today just...ugh, I stared at him and asked if he was the one buying it? If not then attitude isn't needed. My money, and I honestly don't buy myself a lot of things. I have a lot of things I want but I never buy any of it. Not because I can't. I have buyers regret when I do. And notebooks are one of the very few items I don't have that with so yes, I will buy my notebook if it puts a smile on my face. 

Also I banged my head really hard and it's still throbbing. So having to deal with them, and this headache isn't ideal for my Saturday. 

Anyways here are two photos of what I bought. I suppose that's all for now. I was going to go out for a walk, but it's really hot again and the sky is cloudy. It is supposed to rain tomorrow. 

Well, until next time, `Ciao.
