pick me up..

 

I was seriously in need of cheering up today. The dull weather didn't help my mood so I decided to go for a drive with Edward. We went to our local garden centre just to get some inspiration. It was fun for Edward as they had a good selection of Thomas the Tank books.. the look on his face was a picture. He couldn't decide which one to get so I ended up buying him a musical hardback and a Series 9 DVD. I nearly bought myself white Hydrangeas.. sigh. I know this is going to eat me thinking about it and wanting to have one. I have a purple one in front of the house which I'm hoping will do well this year. So we'll see how long I could bear..

 

Then we head back to the supermarket to buy some bits and pieces. After seeing my contacts with Tulips in their pages and blog I can't resist buying these ones the moment I saw them. There was only one bunch of pale pink and some yellows which I thought was quite pretty.

When I came back Alex told me I was bored.. well perhaps that's what it was. I just wanted to go away or do something. I am slightly panicking as I am going back to work in a couple months time and as much as I'm looking forward to it I worry about the kids and getting to a new hectic routine.. juggling work, kids, house and my own interests plus hubby as well.

So there he was looking for some late deals on the net.. bless him. We will still go away but as for now trips to cinemas and dinner dates will do.

 

 

 You'll probably see some more Tulips photos these coming days.. we'll see what I'd come up with.. Enjoy the rest of the weekend..as for me F1 Grand Prix starts tomorrow so should be fun.

on a scale of..

Hello there!!!

I had  a lovely weekend celebrating Mother's Day with the family, my in-laws and a friend. After all the hectic preparation for the Sunday dinner everything has come quiet and back to normal. Unfortunately I have come down with a cold. Now I'm feeling drain and nursing a blocked nose.. sigh.. So I felt a tiny bit under the weather. However I had to go out and take our son to nursery in a very freezing condition. It hasn't been this icy cold before considering Spring should be just around the corner. Winter is certainly holding on.

Feeling drab I felt I really need cheering up.. I transferred the flowers I received from the kids into a big vase then took some photos of the Hyacinth which I thought was rather strikingly pretty in pink. 

 

 

What's with the scale? I went to buy a scale few days ago after Edward decided to throw the old one and broke it. I decided I'd get a digital this time but to no luck when I got home the one I bought didn't work so back to the same shop. I thought it might be just that one which wasn't working so I swapped for the same type. When I got home I was disappointed to find out that it didn't work either..argghh..All I wanted was a scale so back to the shop again and this time I settled for a mechanical one. At least I don't have to spend money on batteries. Have a lovely week ahead.
