HTC Sensation XE – Standard Camera

Ok, so yesterday was advanced level tired. Today is god mode. I found it really really difficult (and not surprising given that I worked 8 days last week and today was day 7 in a row from this week) to get going this morning. I made sure I had lots of food as soon as I got to work but it quieter and a bit less hectic today, although activity was starting again when I left. I am off tomorrow, and I am sleeping all morning, I’m not getting up to do anything. Nothing. Nada. I have a fairly easy week this week too which is ace, I’m off on Monday and Friday (yay!)

When I got back, we decided to have a mooch around B&Q as we needed more bark chips for the garden and by the time we were ready to go, the garden centre’s would be closing. We also bought a really cool light for the front of the house, it’s a tiffany style one so hopefully it’ll be easy to change from the one we currently have. I also want to at some point have a go (and I might need Dad supervision) at changing the light fitting in the small bedroom. We bought a dimmer switch so I want to swap it for the one we have on now. Speaking of that, we need to sit and sort the office out soon too. There’s so much we need to either get rid of or put in storage in the loft so that we can get a wardrobe in there which will enable the box room to be free. I know we’ve got ages yet but given how fast this month is going, soon it’ll be September then in about 3 months we’ll be parents!

Today’s picture is unrelated to everything! When I got up, the light was really warm and glowy and I liked how the sun was making the flowers/plants shadow on the wall of the office!

HTC Wildfire – Vignette – Diana

I’m on cover all day today but I thought rather than just mooch around the house like I normally do I’d go out and about so we ended up in Costco as it isn’t that far away! They had all the Christmas stuff starting to come out and I was playing with this chap (can’t wait to have kids so I can legitimately play with this stuff!). I also got to eat a mini brownie with clotted cream and some jelly beans for free so all in all it was tasty trip! We visited Pierre’s folks after and they’d bought us a jams/preserve making book as a thank you gift for helping them out the other week, the funny thing was we had just literally looked at the book in Costco and thought it looked ace! I now want to make some mince meat and do Mince pies for Christmas and lots of chutneys and jams for Christmas presents! 

Once we came back we then decided on a mega tidy up of the house, it didn’t really need it but it feels quite zen to have a super clean place free of dust bunnies. Whilst Pierre was making the most uber curry (Veggie Jamaican with mango and Butternut Squash) I had a face mask as my skin is feeling crappy and then after dinner I’ve dyed my hair as my roots were showing. I’m surprisingly awake considering I got called out in the wee hours but I expect when my head hits the pillow I’ll be dead to the world (well except for my bloody work phone) within seconds!!!
