What To Do???


Well my wonderful blogging friends, I’m sat here with a coffee and I am undecided on what to do today!
I am on holiday this week; so far I have done a shift at the CS on Tuesday, had a lazy day yesterday with TV catch up, blogging catch up & laundry.
Tomorrow I’m off on a day out with my best friend for my birthday which leaves me today free to do what I want, but I’m just not sure what to do.
The sun is shining so I could go down the garden to the veggie patch & plant some seeds.


I could pop to the shops but I’m trying not to spend any money so probably not the best idea.
I could do some baking from my new thrifted Rachel Allen cookbooks Bake & Home Cooking, a real find at only £2 each in a fabby CS on Saturday, but that could involve shopping for ingredients.


All my palls are at work so no one to come round for lunch.
I think gardening is the best option, I have lots to plant.
I have been growing a couple of lovely flowers on my kitchen windowsill.

They are soo pretty, and really brighten up the kitchen when it is gloomy & grey.


Sorry to post in such an indecisive way today, but I am a little lost!!!
I’m used to having a plan and being organised but this week has been more about re charging my batteries, trying to get rid of this cold that is lingering and generally me time.
I did spot this in Easy Living and wanted to share it with you, a free CK bag & 15% off CK in next months edition.


Well I think I’ll have another coffee, and a wonder down the garden maybe inspiration will hit me.

Have a lovely day.

Luv

Sometimes it is good for the soul to have a day pottering with no real aim. You also need to conserve energy for tomorrow ;0). Your raised beds put my little plot to shame.

Sometimes it's good to just think and take stock. I love your raised beds and potting shed. Have a good day, whatever you decide to do with it.....

What could be better than a potter in the garden? Especially if the sun is out where you are (fantastic day here in Suffolk)
Thanks for the Easy Living mag advice - I'll look out for that one.

What a bargain on the Rachel Allen books - I have both and I think they were around 30 euro new! Hope you had a nice day off x

This post did make me laugh as I always dream of a day off to myself and then suddenly get overwhelmed with all the things I could do!!! - and usually end up doing nothing I'd planned!
