happy times

sleep-in with a cool drizzle down the window....
snuggled up close and tight to your significate other...
sunday has arrived ... yippe.



struggle to get out of your warm, comfy bed.
press the kettle, on goes the bacon, mushrooms + eggs..
enjoying this meal with a wonderful hot medium roast coffee - mmm.


 
today was quite cute, enjoying each others company even if it's in silence.
we don't need to 'talk' to feel comfortable around each other...

a couple visitors, one who I have not seen for around 10 years....was an amazing feeling to hug the person you were once fishing for tadpoles with in the river - this being the last moment you shared with them until now after 10 years of living your own life...change, yes - lots...almost makes me shed a tear.

of course, Sundays are my-beloved cooking days so I made an orange poppyseed cake. it was quite delicious actually. i love that feeling of the poppyseeds as you crunch them in your mouth....ahh little things in life.

anyway, theres something special about my day...tell me about yours - all ears, promise.

Bugger

OK, I have just tried writing 3 different blogs...cannot concentrate on either of them so I have decided to talk about concentration. Is it because I am watching a trading invention show or because I am not thinking properly about what to actually write.....ah I dunno.

When I concentrate it feels good for my brain, sort of like it's making it stronger and you feel like your sprinting along instead of walking...

I must say, how annoyed do you get when you cannot concentrate??? the easiest way to concentrate is, focus on something you enjoy and can relate too...easy huh - of course.

Hidden Secret

Peekaboo!


I am back for more, this 'blogging' may be a tad addictive...opps! Anyhoo....I have a little something to share. It is Kikki.k.....yep, majority of this word has the best letter ... 'K' but most of all, what they sell is cute, quirky and 100% lovable....stationary, one of my favourite subjects.

Just check out the store...that on it's own is flash.


I love everything they use, has a vintage/modern/uber cute feel. Placed an order today so I am looking forward for my parcel to arrive in the mail...am loving the 'Owl' items they have in stock atm.



Check it all out for yourself, when your office looks as fabulous as these - thank me :)



Love K x

Mondays...

When you have a day off work, do you think about all those little jobs/tasks that need completing? or do you sit on the couch all day and watch movies? do you actually get things done or waste time procrastinating over them?

Well...I do a bit of both & sometimes my management skills to complete things are totally under the weather. If you have tips on 'completing things' flick them my way...golly gosh.
