Week in Words

So what have we all been up to this week? I'll be annoying you every single Sunday with a list of things that I've been doing/appreciating/loving/hating.  I have stolen this idea right from Franky over at Love Audrey.  I look forward to it every week... she writes so beautifully and although I can't make my life sound as whimsical as what Franky does (although in all honestly that's probably nothing to do with my writing and probably more to do with the fact that I'm boring) I think the bullet point form might just be the best idea ever.....

So this was my week:

• Returning back to work after having over 2 weeks off recovering from a head trauma.  I felt ready to return and was glad to get back into a routine and actually have something to do with my days but I welcomed my day off today as it took a lot out of me.  I guess it'll take time.
• Using my final days off at the beginning of the week to get the living room and the staircase in order and finally get some things shifted into the loft!
• Finally  receiving my lovely lovely new laptop.  I have been without one for quite some time so I'm incredibly happy to finally have one again.  A tablet just wasn't cutting it.
• Talking through my accident with the husband and he filled me in a little bit although he doesn't like to talk about it too much! I am intrigued as I really don't remember any of it.
• I have been scouring Pinterest for bedroom inspiration.  I have finally decided on grey and white with a touch of sea foam green or duck egg blue.  Much like this blog, ha.
• Rushing to find a last minute birthday present for my little brother-in-law and finding it incredibly difficult as the toy shop was closed! I was organised and ordered him something online but they sent me the wrong product.  A pair of pink Nikes just wasn't gonna do.
• Trying to make a few life decisions.
• Feeling motivated to crack on with the decorating.
• Getting the chimney swept and feeling an itty bitty excited to be getting close to the time of year when I can sit in front of the fire tucking into a humungous roast dinner.
• Finding a pack of Haribo strawbs in the drawer and devouring them quicker than ever.
• Pulling out weeds from the strip that goes round the house and laying some tarpaulin down in the hope that this will keep them at bay.  I hate gardening!
• Painting a bedroom whilst the men laid some tiles in the kitchen floor.
• Trying to figure out Windows 8.  Face.  Palm.
• Having easy dinners because I've been feeling rather uninspired this week.
• Wishlisting a lot of clothes.  Both for me and for him.  I might even be encouraging to buy a few.
• Catching up with family and friends.
• Craving some reeeal good burgers.
