drama, dye, driving

So, I have now dyed up 7 & 8 braids of jacob & BFL with silk & I'm just waiting on a day sunny enough to photograph.

I have not blogged in a couple of days due to the drama inherent in have an neighbour who is insane 7 passive aggressive for no apparent reason, just a few nights ago she came & yelled at me while holding a knife & telling me I was a crazy bitch & threatening to have me evicted, this a day after I find out she has been contacting the real estate agent to tell lies about me & my guinea pigs at the stage where I was still trying to send her civil letters asking what was going on, she had jumped straight to shit stirring & not even trying to resolve the conflict she had created, my real estate are now trying to change the terms of my lease as I sit here & unfortunatly I didn't find out about this till friday 6pm & I now have plans to contact rental tenancy to find out if I can leave early if i'm having violent conflict with the neighbour, if the real estate change the area I am renting but still want me to pay the same rent & just how derelict a house has to be to be unsuitable to live in & the levels of this one were not apparent on a 5 minute walk-through on a clear day, the leaking ceilings, gusty gappy floors, rotten porch, plants growing inside from outside, uncontrollable insect invasion due to doors & walls not reaching the floor in addition to short eaves so every-time it rains I need to build a towel moat on my front porch to stop water flowing into the front hall & theres just nothing I can do about the flooding in the laundry or the fact that several windows are bolted open or shut because the frames are too rotten to be able to be moved.


I have however booked my driving test for 12.15 16th of april in Armidale, I will be in the hood for 10 days so I'm looking forward to much chilling with family & friends hopefully passing the test & if I fail a shoulder to cry on & a buddy to drink with, if I should succeed I will suddenly have the mobility to do my own thing including being able to attend markets to peddle my wares & have a great variety of places I can life most of which are cheaper & have more yard as they are 15 minutes out of town & maybe then I can have the garden in which to mosey & feel at ease without constant town speed & crazy to set me off.

My next soaked fibre is a 70% 30% of 23 micron merino & bamboo, I'm looking forward to it but can't decide exactly what I should make with them probably harmonious 3 colour transitions or maybe something with more of a hand painted look, I have plans to try to do 2-3 fibres of 6-8 braids each school week a bit hectic but not over the top, I'm also trying to have a flyer with tear off web addresses also looking at business cards I hope i can get some volunteers to distribute some to spread the word of my stuff so I can actually live off what I love & get centrelink of my back.

Oh another not so great thing, in the process of trying to do this I need to backup my computer & reload windows because the version I have is missing the base program to be able to load my printer drivers which I need to print & I need to print so I can print off & send my uni applications & so I can do a stupid invasive homework project for Trystans school.

So there you have it, drama frustration & a bit of hope & with any luck I'll have pictures tomorrow.
