The weekend cometh!

I don't know about you, but I am one happy girl!  Today is FRIDAY, which means the weekend is peeking it's beautiful head around the corner and beckoning me to join it.  You shouldn't wish your life away, but I will be happy when 3.30pm comes today (I luckily finish an hour early on a Friday).

Do you have any fun plans for this weekend?  I am seeing a whole host of friends for dinners, lunches and catch ups.  I am also painting eggs with my housemate on Sunday!  And, I hope to do some catching up on my blog reading, feeling horribly out of the loop with everyone, not good.  So I'm thinking, breakfast in bed with my laptop tomorrow?

On a side note, I just have to sing the praises of my housemate.  Our living in this lovely house together, with our on and off live in landlord, has been a real surprise and blessing for me.  She is lovely and the perfect housemate for me right now.  Yesterday, when I had gone down into the kitchen before leaving for work feeling all tired and woe is me, she was a positive and motivational breath of fresh air.  Thanks to her I went for a run after work yesterday, and what a difference it made to how I felt!  Like an instant happy patch.  I was so happy the rest of the evening, after a blurgh day at work, and got loads done.  So, I just had to say a big thank you to the cosmos for putting us in the same house at the same time, she rocks.

Ooh, I watched a fab film last night!  OK, so it's not a real, credible film, but I loved it.  It's called "Stick it" and it's about gymnastics.  My friend Anna and I are partners in crime when it comes to watching bad dance films together, so it may not surprise that I was loaned this film by her.  It was a feel good bit of cheese with some great gymnastics and a kick arse soundtrack (as in Blink 182 and Fall Out Boy).  I'll find you a trailer...


Have a great day everyone. x

The hunt for free wifi has started

Hello everyone!  

Sorry it has been a few days since I was able to post more than a quote, I've been a tad busy.  I am back in Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, and I have spent the last few days house and job hunting.  My friend Helen has been amazing and has let me stay in her spare room (she is fab), but tomorrow I should be able to move out and into something a little more permanent!  Woo hoo.  

Today, I am going to go on a free wifi hunt in Cambridge city.  I've googled and I have a few places in mind to try.  It may cost me the price of a light lunch or a drink, but hopefully I can find a corner somewhere and watch people going about their days.  Then, I hope to do some useful things and some blog catch up reading!  I haven't really read any in days, due to business rather than lack of internet, and I feel out of the loop!

Wishing you all a fabulous weekend.  The birds are singing here and the sun is trying to come out.

Weekends and photo challenges

So, Friday is here!  Do you have anything fun planned this weekend?

Today I FINALLY made it to the post office to send my friend her very belated birthday present.  I love sending post, as you may be able to tell by the doodles on the jiffy bag...  But, is there anything more exciting than getting something special delivered to you by the postman (or landing on your doormat with a thud)?


This weekend I will be heading up to Cambridge, Cambridgeshire.  I am hoping to move there soon, I've lived there before (twice) so I know people I can stay with whilst I look for a house share and a job.  Will be nice to be near friends again, I've been a bit alienated the last few months.

This month I will be partaking in the Fat Mum Slim February 2013 photo a day challenge, I tried last month and did pretty well until the last few days.  If you are interested here is the link to the list.  I have done my own 365 project in the past, but at the time I was living in South Korea so taking a different photo every day was easy, everything was new and exciting!  However, having a daily prompt can be quite challenging, especially if I'm feeling artistic.

Hope you have fun, whatever you get up to.  I'm working on some posts at the moment, something way more interesting should be headed this way soon!
