I headed out in such high spirits this afternoon for a speedy 5km run, after so many long runs recently I thought it would be easy. Boy was I wrong. I went too fast on the first km and after that it was a right slog. Lesson learnt, eat more before runs. I had aContinue reading “12/03/23 – Tough run calls for a hot bath”

The last two days were pretty full on, so I was pleased to get the chance to rest today after work with my feet up. I made loads more progress with reading Harry Potter (last book!) and we lit our lovely springtime Jo Malone candle which filled the house with a gorgeous floral scent.

A normal work day today, except we also headed out to Crystal Palace at lunch to buy our niece a birthday card. See if you can spot the duck in the photo!

I did about ten hours of work today! It’s been a very long day but also a very productive one. I’m still very happy that tomorrow is Friday though, that’s for sure! This evening was more work and then just playing on my phone before reading more Harry Potter. It’s not that exciting which meansContinue reading “02/03/23 – A long day…”

After work today I went to a pasta making course with Corinne. Nic, Mariana and I bought it for her birthday about seven months ago and we finally got to use it. It was super fun and we had a great time! We made lots of lovely pasta and got some freebies to take home.Continue reading “28/02/23 – Pasta making course!”

It’s officially here, daylight at 6pm! And I’m so ready for it!! Okay, granted it was still bitterly cold due to the north wind sticking around, but I’ll take the sunshine in my stride!

I started today off with a 21km run! My second half marathon of the year. It felt a lot harder at the end than a lot of my most recent runs but it turns out it was also my third fastest! I then spent the rest of the afternoon hanging out at Mariana’s house nowContinue reading “25/02/23 – Running and catch ups”

It’s been a bit soggy in London this last week. We’ve also had no plans and have hardly left the house apart from working out. I’m excited for a proper busy few days that are coming up, but I’ve been also trying to enjoy the down time whilst it lasts. I have enjoyed my weekContinue reading “24/02/23 – Damp day…”

Completely forgot yesterday’s photo was also of my kindle… Whoops! But I really am reading for about three hours after work everyday. Already a fifth through book number 6 of Harry Potter! Getting a bit sad that I’m on my way to the end..

I’m now onto book 6 of Harry Potter! Over the last 5 weeks I’ve averaged about 10 hours of reading each week. I’m way ahead of schedule for finishing before my trip to the studios with time left over to watch all the movies too! I’m really enjoying swatting up on it all.
