A okay day!
The lonely feeling from yesterday slowly disappeared this morning, I had plans today. Today I went to Ikea, it was actually needed, cause I needed something for my window sill. Plants have died again in the fully sun on my sill, for the second time. So, no more plants on my sill. A friend of mine offered me to join me to Ikea, she offered me already last week. But she went sick just a few days before our trip, and today she didn't feel any better. I went alone, I was actually looking forward to go to Ikea with someone, it's so much more fun. But okay, with a slightly disappointed face I took off. This friend I know from the free dinners, she's actually a friend of someone I know from Humanitas, she's nice, and has two kids.
Off I went, I bought my last groceries already just before I took off to the train station towards Ikea. It wasn't cold and the expected rain didn't show up. The trip with the train wasn't that long either, not even 15 minutes. Arrived in Hengelo (the City where Ikea is placed) I took the bus to Ikea. But I forgot to have any change on me, 3 Euro and 30 Euro cents was pretty much for a 10 minutes bus drive, sigh. The bus driver told me to go to the nearest bank and try to get a bank machine, there was one near the bus station. I still had 3 minutes before the bus left. I ran to the nearest bank and putted my card into the bank machine, but it didn't work, the second attempt neither.
I ran back to the bus and told the bus driver that I will take the second bus, I needed to find another bank machine for change. The bus took off and I went searching, after a few machines I found one what actually worked, sigh! I walked back to the bus stop and waited for the second bus, Bus 51 to Ikea showed up within 10 minutes, good! I thought to myself, why should I stress about the time, I got plenty of time on my own, enjoy!! I don't have to be back on a certain time, right? It's a Saturday afternoon and it was busy at Ikea, but that was okay, I took my time and enjoyed myself. Ikea is nice to visit, it's cheap aswell, and just watching the items they sell is nice aswell.
I bought a few things I needed, I saw a few things where I thought, 'Shall I? Or shall I not?" I saw a nice painting but had doubts of buying it, it was pretty big aswell. Then the cooking pan I saw, hmm, it was not actually what I'm here fore, lol. I bought a few fake plants, two little lamps and a few vases. I was satisfied, it was all good. Even though I had to carry it all what I bought, it was good to do. I packed it all in a few plastic bags, and packed it then all together in one big plastic bag, I'm pretty good in that, lol. I had a nice afternoon, I took the bus and train towards home, I thought the 3 Euro and 30 Euro cents was a one way, but it was not, just my luck. I prepaired dinner when I got home and took my rest. The things I bought looks nice in the window sill, I will place pictures from it in the next post.
P.s. the friend who wanted to join me to Ikea told me that she will make up with me, the nicer days are coming (Autumn, Christmas, New Year) she wants me to join her with her Family to go out a day or perhaps a dinner. Sounds good!
