Having A Date With the Couch

Today my son is back to school so I decided that I'd have a date with with sofa. I've had a bath and yes I love my son, but I do like to have time with myself. To me it is important and Henry loves his friends at  school and glad it is back. Henry gets easily bored and we did so much in the summer it is good to unwind and spend some time apart. 



It is a nice day out so I may read in the garden later. I just like to be able to work and relax. I have my radio show already planned for the end of the week. There is the little feeling of guilt not wanting to do anything like cleaning so did a little just pottering and going to do bits of pottering around through out the day but mainly just chill.

So looking forward to the cooler weather and be cosy indoors. I have bought a new jumper from H&M and was going to wear but its still too hot but I love jumpers and buying a new one and this week going to do more decluttering of my clothes but I am in the position that I do like my clothes and so don't need anymore and shop my wardrobe. 

I am so glad of what we did the summer holidays. It was full on but well worth it and so to relax is well needed and back having instant coffee and going to get out again tomorrow. 

I am wondering whether I can finish my current book I am reading which has little stories in it and giving me ideas as I loved those sort of books as a kid and its been a while since I have read a book like that and enjoying it. It is good to have the TV on in the background whilst I read. I was challenging myself to see if I could drink my coffee, write a blog silence so reminding myself I am going to write the rest of this blog in silence. 

My mind is always resisting against things. Its like self punishment, so going to listen and if I feel like doing some thing other than watch TV, write more blogs and on my books, then I will but enjoy the time and time to me is precious and we all deserve a break whatever helps you to do that. 

Many thanks for reading,

I love a Bacon Sandwich and a Cup of tea

Image
I don't have a bacon sandwich all the time, but now and then with a cup of tea. It is good to have the things you enjoy to feel excited. I love my food now, being super fuzzy as a child and when I have a Bacon Sandwich it reminds me of my dad as every weekend he'd make me a Bacon or Sausage sandwich but found it super filling and wouldn't eat all of it, which my dad would get annoyed with and didn't like how soggy the bread would get. Now it is part of it, but a Bacon roll is a delicious too and nice to have this to warm up the body and feel satisfied and it actually helps with my appetite by being full and not snacking so much. The tea I normally have is, Tetley's or Yorkshire Tea. I do occasionally have herbal and like a bit of lemon and honey in the winter, in my tea. I like my afternoon cup and like to have a cuppa in the evening when reading my book before bedtime.  The book I am reading at the moment is The Street by Anthony Quinn. I bought it from a Charity s...

I love a pair of pyjamas

I am writing a book called Life as a Bedtime girl and she loves home life. She loves her book and bed, married to an Italian and comes and goes as she pleases. Would we like to have a life?  Me in my Christmas PJs It is good to invest in making sure you have a good sleep and having a good set of PJ's can help. I don't buy PJ's all of the time, as the ones I have had have lasted for a long time. I like clothes, including bed clothes that last and it can really help to settle for the evening. Invest in yourself. I have had trouble with sleep and its getting to sleep that I have struggled with, but now I sleep well and having a bath with a pair of lovely and easy wearing PJ's have helped and helps me be productive the next day. Having a nice set of sleep wear has made a difference. I have to have a set that allows my skin to breath and instantly relaxes me.  Then there is bedding. I will admit I not one to wash my bedding all of the time like I know I should, but is a must...

A Cup of Tea and Toast

Image
Hello and welcome to my site and for checking out this blog site. I am writing this as I have my second cup of tea for the day with, two slices of toast with Jam. This is the life.  Nothing better my book and a cup of tea which I do each morning and evening I love nothing better and make sure I have something to eat in the morning. I can't function on an empty stomach and it can be a bowl of cereal some days, we had waffles this week too, with Chocolate Spread and Maple Syrup and often my son loves Scrambled egg on toast.  There was a time I'd skip breakfast and not eat until midday. Mainly when I was working at a holiday camp because I wouldn't eat until the first shift of the day was be over and couldn't stomach food and  I did lose a lot of weight for while as I was moving more than what I was eating and drinking alcohol, a lot of the time and binge drinking is not a good idea. So now I will fuel myself when I get up in the morning to kick start my day and it has mad...
