This will be my fifth time trying to start today’s post. The first time I sat down in the cosy corner of our sofa that seems to have become my go-to writing spot, Willow sat on my lap before I could grab the laptop. The next time, I went to start typing only to notice my tummy rumbling and realise it was lunch time. I went to take a seat just now, having got back from a last minute run to the shops for dinner supplies, only to hear Mambo meowing for brushes from the bedroom.
Now here I am, Willow cuddled, tummy filled and Mambo brushed and ready to focus on keeping up my current streak. I don’t think, in the history of this blog, I have ever managed to post quite so consistently – wahey!
This week has gone by in a flash. Work was busy. Wednesday was spent in London and Thursday in a lovely little Suffolk town called Bury St Edmunds. (I had the yummiest cheese scone and takeaway coffee from a little cafe/restaurant called No.5.) I was busy outside of work. I decided this was the week to Spring clean and spent my lunch breaks hoovering and organising. Thursday night I headed back into London for dinner and drinks with a friend and we happened upon what I think might be the friendliest Kings Cross pub. Friday night was spent with another wonderful friend, wine and one of my favourite films.
And then our plans for the rest of the weekend were cancelled. And I’m so sad we didn’t get to see our LOVELY friends, but I have to confess it has felt sooooo good to flop.
It’s been grey and rainy this weekend so far – the perfect weather for creating cosy vibes. I had the lamp on earlier and felt so snuggly. But now the sun is coming out and I’ve been to the shop and I can feel my energy rising again. It wasn’t a week long break in the Bahamas, but it turns out a couple of days in my comfy clothes watching TV and films and reading my book were precisely what I needed. Going into another busy week this week, but feeling good about it. After all, we’re going into May this week and May is without a doubt the best month of the year.
