Diary Entry August 19 2025

Dear Diary,

Today I swore I’d finally get my act together. “No chaos,” I said. “Just work,” I said. Famous last words.

🧼 Tried to make a clean, simple oatmeal soap. Accidentally added mica. It now sparkles like a breakfast disco.

📦 Packed three orders. Opened one back up because I was convinced I forgot something. Turns out I had actually added an extra lip balm. Surprise, customer. It's staying. 

☕ Replaced my coffee with herbal tea “for focus.” Immediately spilled it on the scale. Now the scale smells like lemongrass and regret.

🐒 Hung a sign that says “Quiet Please, Productivity in Progress.” Then ignored it and sang karaoke to myself for an hour.

📝 Wrote a to-do list. Lost it. Found it later stuck to my tail with a label that said “Batch 004: Chaos Deluxe.” It fits.

So technically I did make soap, pack orders, and drink tea. But the execution? Pure Melinda.

Sparkly, scattered, and somehow successful,

Melinda 🐒💜
