Downsizing starts


The circus always moves on... now where to go?
(Scene from Charlie Chapman film "A Tramp in the Circus".)
The circus I joined is leaving and, as usual, unless I find a new circus, I will be left to find a way to survive on my own... contracting, freelancing...

After 4 plus years in my current position,
I'm not afraid of anything anymore...
I can work in any environment
- anytime, anywhere...

It's not muscle, it's skill - knowing how to communicate
- you are ALWAYS communicating... something...


I have applied to many jobs and finally I have a tentative job offer. Or two. maybe more. But, they are all tentative and I would need to move for each one... So, today I am preparing by sorting through my things I have collected over the years and downsizing - not an easy task, but why hold on to the past?


I think that the first thing I need to do is collect boxes and start to categorize and pack. Stack them up in a corner of a room. Then I will sell off my large, heavy pieces of antique-y furniture... and buy new!

My dream apartment:

cozy media room

my dream kitchen...
home office is tucked away but has lots of shelves

I am torn between modern and rustic. I think that both are possible. Rustic on the outside and modern features inside:

country/European/rustic/bohemian

I want to make my room door wallpapered, too...
and add a vintage brass knob (germs don't live very long on brass).
At this very moment, the song "Home by Phillip Phillips is playing on the radio:

"Home"
Hold on, to me as we go
As we roll down this unfamiliar road
And although this wave is stringing us along
Just know you’re not alone
Cause I’m going to make this place your home

Settle down, it'll all be clear
Don't pay no mind to the demons
They fill you with fear
The trouble it might drag you down
If you get lost, you can always be found

Just know you’re not alone
Cause I’m going to make this place your home

Ooo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo. oo-oo-oo-oo [x2]
Aaa-aa-aa-aa-aa-aa-aa. aa-aa-aa-aaaaaa [x2]

Settle down, it'll all be clear
Don't pay no mind to the demons
They fill you with fear
The trouble it might drag you down
If you get lost, you can always be found

Just know you’re not alone
Cause I’m going to make this place your home

Ooo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo. oo-oo-oo-oo [x4]
Aaa-aa-aa-aa-aa-aa-aa. aa-aa-aa-aaaaaa [x4]
