Got up, had breakfast, had a shower, got dressed. "This is starting to get a bit boring" sighed Katie who was the kind of person who got bored easily. "I'll go out after work and try to meet some more people. Maybe I'll have a house warming party at the weekend." That thought cheered her up a bit as she dragged herself to the car.
She mentioned the party idea to her colleagues during the day and they all said that it sounded like a good idea. Feeling a bit better again she worked a bit harder for the rest of the day. At the end of the day her boss asked to see her before she went home. "I'VE BEEN PROMOTED!" Katie shouted to everyone who was in the street. "I'm definitely having the party now. First I sell some chapters of my book and now I get promoted.!" She remembered she was going to go out after work but the sensible part of her kicked in and she went shopping for some more things to add to her 'house'. She decided on getting a sofa, more walls and a door. She was told it would be ready and waiting for her when she got home so she could go out and celebrate.
After asking a few people in town where she should go, Katie headed to the Juice Bar. There were only a few people there when she first arrived but it soon filled up. Yet again she chatted the night away!
When she got home Katie was tired but happy, a complete change to how she felt that morning. She got out of the taxi and stopped dead in the street. She had enjoyed herself so much at the Juice Bar that she had forgotten about blowing her bonus in the shop before. "All I need now is one more wall, a roof, windows, wallpaper and a carpet and I'm sorted" she grinned. Before dragging herself to bed she made a snack but didn't get around to eating it...
How embarrassing!
