Poorly..

To explain why I was feeling flat - replace with poorly! Knew I had a sore throat, today woke up with a cold (which is just a cold) but also with horrible giddiness - unless I keep very still the world swings around me :( Seriously hoping this doesn't last long....

 

Home alone....

Again..................

 

Obviously Sarah isn't away, but she is out, which is right and proper cos she has a life of her own, I'm just feeling a bit fed up as this is the first of the times when Paul is away this year that includes being away over the weekend too, week 2 and 3 of this 8 week stint. And we've both had more than enough of it now.

 

It'll be fine, I'll fill it with nice things, enjoy some peace and quiet, but tonight I'm just feeling a bit flat :S

 

Celebrations

Last week was really lovely.

 

PJ and Hannah home, Paul not away, meaning all 5 of us together. Add in a selection of friends coming and going, meaning there was usually at least 6 for supper, and, in spite of lots of mess and chaos I was very happy.

 

Then there was my birthday, lots of lovely pressies, brunch cooked by Hannah and PJ, coffee in town, afternoon cream tea, then out for a lovely meal.

 

A week of relaxing, enjoying not having to set an alarm, even if I didn't manage to sleep in much, I had lots of lie ins.

 

Then an amazing party, we managed a BBQ (even though it snowed 5 days before, and it was the lovely relaxed fun that I love about BBQs. And thanks to my amazing family I hadn't organised it, shopped for it, planned or cooked it :)))

 

As I said a lovely week.

PS - my main present was a DSLR, and to try and make sure that I use it properly, and learn and develop my photography skills, I've started a new blog, posting a picture a day for a year (I pinched the idea from a friend). Its not very exciting but in case you're interested - http://kal365.blogspot.co.uk/
