Hello Friday

I cannot say how glad I am that Friday has arrived and the weekend is a few hours away. This week has seriously taken it out of me!

I keep a weekly gratitude list and it is especially helpful when life is hectically busy to take a step back and count blessings. This week which has flown by in a blur of e-mails, paperwork and deadlines also had some good parts and I feel it is essential to focus on that.

1.) This week I had to go in 2 days to the office. This meant early starts so I could get to my office and then hubby could drive to his. Sitting with hubby in the parking lot on a cold morning (is spring ever going to arrive?) sipping a take away coffee that tasted like pure magic was a great start to both days.

I was so happy to work from home the rest of the week and found I’m so much more productive but that take away coffee made my morning (and day).

2.) A clean house, empty laundry basket and stocked fridge means a chore free weekend. We’ve been keeping on top of the housework and hubby did the weekend grocery shopping earlier so there are snacks for after work, dinner is sorted and drinks are chilling in the fridge. I love to start the weekend as I log off and not having to rush to the shops after work means a relaxing evening is even closer.

3.) Loads of rain on Sunday which is so good for our garden. Even though the week has been super cold!

4.) Netflix. I have thoroughly enjoyed The Bold Type and hope there are more seasons.

5.) I gave in to my inner stationery addict and treated myself to a new planner. It is an 18 month one and so I’m ready to start it. Yes I did have one which could be used for a few more months but then I saw this one. I also ordered some planner stickers I saw online and cannot wait for them to arrive.

Sometimes it is the little things in life that can spark so much joy.

Happy Friday and hope everyone has a lovely weekend.
