Go Forth

I rarely watch live TV anymore (thank you Sky+) so I rarely get to see adverts. The only time I do now is at the cinema. Recently waiting for the film to start I saw the new Levi advert, I couldn't help but smile at the end. If you ever need motivation for life, then this one is a must.

Basically it's all about giving us Ladies a bit of a confidence boost when we have our down days.

Where is your writing space?

One day last week I was at home working surfing the internet for new pretty things to buy when the doorbell rung. A little while later it was apparent that some furniture was about to be delivered, like right now. I didn't know anything of it, Spurs boy and I had looked at some furniture ideas for the hallway but we hadn't ordered anything. It had to be a mistake.

Inspiration to write?

Is it weird to have a new notebook to be able to write?

When I was younger every school year there would be the school uniform shop (Boring!) and then there was the shop for new pens, folders etc and that was always more fun! Ever since then at college and beyond I have always bought a new pile of stationary for each needed occasion or project.

I have a special pen and pencil that take replacements so have no need to look for others, so my main vice is for notepads. The other thing that amazes me is how many different styles of notepad there are now, which is bad for me as there is even more temptation now.

So before I start to write I must purchase some new notepads. Amazing how inspiration can come from things so pretty and yet so small...
