On Friday night, as The Boy was staying away at a friends for a Saturday
suit fitting, I took the opportunity to do something I don't do very
often: relax. I settled into bed (the lounge just won't do for a proper
veg out) with a pile of magazines, documentaries on 4OD (I know, I'm a
geek), Bridesmaids on DVD and a Kit Kat chunky (a girl's got to eat). It
was a wonderful evening, nowhere to be and nothing pressing to do, it
was bliss. My week wasn't particularly crazy but, as usual, I'd had lots on and it was nice to just spend an evening doing basically, nothing. My
wonderful friend Zsa from The Life Wardrobe had surprised me with a bag
of popcorn and a DVD as a treat "just because" (don't you just love
friends like that) so my evening was mapped out for me with food, comedy
and relaxation.
Saturday saw me hit the market for the weekly fruit and
veg shop, stopping at Sports Direct on the way to pick up some new
running trousers (who knew I would actually get into this running lark).
It was nice to have a day entirely to myself, a spot of shopping, a
sandwich for lunch (that definitely wouldn't have passed The Boy's
portion control rules) and then an afternoon of cleaning whilst watching
American trashy TV. You wouldn't think cleaning would make me happy,
but tidy house tidy mind and all that. We went for a curry and drinks
with friends on Saturday night followed by a day wandering along the
river to Chiswick on Sunday. It was a lovely weekend and a relatively
nice week, here's some pics of what I've been getting up to:
Pretty much my dream house - dressing like my Grandmother - a visit to the lovely Hobbs store in Bluewater - surprise gifts from Zsa - browsing the fashion books in Chiswick - loving the new Chanel ad campaign
