I’ve decided to start filling up my:
Balcony
so I can daydream that some handsome gentleman who wants to give me the soft life…
is going to pull up in a limo holding flowers while shouting my name from the sunroof….then climb up to the top floor…. to spoil me like the ultimate:
Pretty Woman!
Oh, that’s a classic!
I suppose I need to get my dusty scalp issues gone and a nice silk press to impress my own self – so I can gently toss my hair out of a ponytail…to receive the ultimate pull up.
Today, I went to a furniture store that is closing to look for some balcony furniture.

A sunburst red, 2 seater and mini table set caught my eye.
Could it be love?

I prefer to not:
Build
So I asked some peeps on staff if I could take the floor model. Unfortunately, they wouldn’t let me take the premade furniture because there was 1 boxed version available for purchase.
Just wakada bakada! Fine!
The set was loaded into my vehicle so it could be assembled at my dwelling space, The Billionaire Bubble.
Thankfully, I know and birthed two builder brothers. I treated them to ice cream then had them do some building on the scene at -> The Creation Cave!

They each were tasked with building a chair and I took on the mini table. I’m thankful for their help! Go Team!
It’s so funny – how I claim to not like building – yet once I push pass the initial resistance – I actually enjoy it. I find it to be very soothing and actually simple – when you go step by step by step. I like to flow – building requires me to be structured. When I get stuck – I pray and ask God to help me. Many times I get thoughts of how I need a man to do this, but I keep going and boom….progress is made over and over until it’s done via my own hands! I tend to think of the big picture and the thought of all these little steps, turning instruction book pages, and getting little screws together to put furniture pieces together is just … :
A Lot Going On
I tend to say that quite a bit out loud. My oldest son has actually been bringing that to my attention and telling me that a lot is not going on – and to take a deep breath. So I am working to just breathe and move along gently. My inner world is active and at times I feel the outer world is doing the most – so when I am seeking to bring order and calm – I will say that out loud. Woo saaaaa.
I was able to get my mini table built and then help one of my son’s with finishing off one of the other chairs.
I will confess – being able to build my own stuff and not just get things pre-made helps me to not shade my own capabilities!
It improves my can do mindset and skillset – which will roll into future builds.
Before you write something off as being too much – consider giving it a go yourself first and even having your crew chip in. You might just shock yourself and make new core memories!
It is rewarding to sit on furniture that was built by myself and crew. It’s like:
Sitting on love in action.

Oh, and this whole wearing curly gift ribbon in my hair isn’t going anywhere! bahahahahahaha

It’s a fashionable reminder that my playful, passionate presence is a present.
Try it and see how it makes you feel!
It’s giving -> “Peeps better put a wrap on the foolery before they attempt to build anything with me”.
Lovely, only thoughtful and gentle company can unbox our expensive essence. Else, they get the padded glove – jab, hook, uppercut, cross combo treatment. Dudes, gotta’ be on they Richard Gere -> – you hear -> from this day onward -> only evolved Edwards can move forward. Check that mate, stay clear. Muah.
“Must be difficult to let go of something so beautiful.” – Pretty Woman

(Rant over – for now)
Are you building anything? What was the last thing you built? Do you feel empowered to build solo? Do you build with others?
