The Diary of a Nobody

Since Brickwell told me his wife was working wonders with some special Homebase stencils, I reckoned I should try them out. I bought a couple of Celtic Cross and floral designs on my way home. Got my dinner down fairly smartish and then went to the garage to test them out on the back wall. I called out to Carrie who said “You’re always messing around with some new-fangled nonsense”, but then had to admit the designs looked pretty good. Went upstairs to our bedroom and painted a “dado rail” of flowers round the room. I felt it added some much-needed panache to the decor, but Carrie looked unimpressed and said she thought “it had looked a lot better before”.

Why shouldn’t
I publish
my diary?
I often see memoirs by people I’ve never even heard of and I don’t see why my diary should be any less interesting, just because I’m not a ‘celebrity’. I only wish I’d started it when I was younger.
