Phew...

Well well well, our time of long weekends, and bank holidays are finally over. I've become so lazy from all these holidays, that I don't know how I'm going to survive this five day work week! Last week we only had two work days, and most of my colleagues were out of the office, so it was torture to sit here in work in total silence.  I even felt kind of lonely, having to make coffee all by myself...

I didn't so much do nothing, as I enjoyed the later mornings.  I have to get up at 5am each day for work, so I'm totally spoilt now by the 8am awakenings... *sigh*

Yesterday I baked.  Scones, and chocolate cake, and made some savoury pastries.  Its my husbands birthday today - YAY!!  He's a quarter centuary old, and the family are all coming over tonight, so I had to bake - but I actually enjoyed it alot!

I love being in the kitchen, and though I would appreciate a dishwasher, at least I have a very helpful husband, who doesn't mind washing the dishes while I'm busy cooking.  Very sweet of him, hey?

Mmm... Other than that we spent our time off doing shopping - normal grocery shopping, but also shopping for my husband for a birthday gift.  He's been looking for a new sweater for some time now, and though I would prefer it be a surprize, I'd rather let him pick it himself since he's quite picky about what he wants.

We also spent some time with the families, having a BBQ, and going to Monte Casino, which was really nice.  I wish I had taken pics, but alas, I forgot my camera at home.

I guess its time that I get myself into gear, and start doing some work.  I've only made lists of all that has to be done, so I should really get myself into action. Tongue out

Hope you all have an awesome week.

Would You Like To Dance?

I am sooo lazy in winter times - or whenever its cold for that matter.  I haven't gone to the gym at all this week, and though I like going to the gym, I just can't get up early enough in the mornings to pack my gym bag.  I'm gonna try to pack it in the evenings now.

But I could very easily just sit here, listen to my music, and sip a cup of hot chocolate... Mmm.... The air outside is a little bit below crisp, but its so nice.  I never thought I'd like winter this much.  And though I don't enjoy being cold, there is something so magical about the cold. 

I've been CRAVING to dance for a while now.  I can even just dance at home, I don't mind, I just NEED to dance.  Its strange.  I had dancing lessons when I was still at school - I guess I danced for most of my school career, and I loved it.  We even had semi professional concerts at a theatre.  It was really amazing, specially as a little girl.  It was addictive, the stage life...  I did tap dancing, and modern dancing.  These days I've been craving crazy club dancing, nothing more. 

I heard that there's someone close to our house who gives ballroom dancing lessons, and I'm seriously considering that.  It sounds like fun.  Not to do it professionally, or anything like that, just for fun.  I absolutely LOVE dancing....

YaY - its Friday!!  I can't believe we have another weekend, but I'm really thankful.  I've got a lot of things planned for this weekend.  I want to go do some winter shopping.  My wardrobe is a bit understocked, so I hope I find something nice.  Other than that there is a ton of work to be done in the house.  Well not really, but it can defintely keep me busy the whole of Saturday, but we'll see how it all goes.  We have some friends we have to see to.  Damn, I wish we could just get a maid - it would be a lot easier, but I guess for the time being, I'll just have to enjoy the life as a housewife & working woman. 

Hope you all have a terrific weekend!!! Tongue out
