Someone chose me…

I must say it’s rather disconcerting when I receive emails from my e-dating website telling me that ’someone chose me’. I didn’t know what to make of it at first – I thought I had won the lottery!

Basically, someone had rated me four or five stars on the e-dating website, which made me feel like a hotel if I’m honest. Not that there’s anything wrong with feeling like a hotel. Actually, no, there is definitely something wrong with being made to feel like a hotel!

I’ve decided that there are more important things in life than dating, such as my organic food business. I’m still suffering thanks to a less-than-busy summer here in Hebden, but luckily I still have money left over from the fire at my dad’s old business to tide me over. Hidden blessings, and all that…

My mother called me yesterday. It was the first time I’d spoken to her in a while. Not much has changed between us really. She says she’s pleased about “my little grocery stall” and that she’s happy I’m happy, yet can’t resist telling me about the latest of my school friends to get married or pregnant. I honestly don’t care, mother!
Oh I feel bad criticising my own mother on the internet, but I guess she’ll never read it so…

My week has been hampered by the bad weather. Honestly, it’s August, there really shouldn’t be any rain! Because of the weather, I’ve not been able to indulge Plan B – taking my organic cart around the village. I should really focus on Plan A – selling over the internet – but it’s not massively inspiring to sit inside on a rainy day trying to think of ways to sell products people already have but for more money, even if it is more ethical.

Please don’t think I’m depressed at the moment, I’m really not, I think it’s just the weather!
