The week that was...

Spent my first week on holiday spring cleaning the house. Lots of sorting and filling bags and boxes to give to charity. Also went through my pantry and ended up throwing out a couple of bags of out of date food. Shame on me :) Not the most fun thing to do, but necessary, and also very cathartic.

Also had my father in law over to help me build a bed for our spare room in preparation for my mums stay next week. My father in law also helped me re-grout the bathroom and it was a case of the blind leading the blind... or is it dumb and dumber? lol But am pleased to report that all turned out ok in the end.

This week I also made followed through with a step in the direction of one of my holiday goals to become more "green" to help the environment - I made the change from plastic bags to green environmental bags. I actually ended up preferring them, so made me wonder why it took me so friggen long to make the change!? lol

Aside from the boring activities this week, I did manage to fit in a couple of cafe visits for pleasure and a pampering session at the beauticians, so not too bad. Also ended the week at a friends Girls Night In pink themed party raising money for Breast Cancer Research which was a lot of fun.
Now that my homes a little more organised, I will start spending time thinking more about creative pursuits..... thinking... thinking... thinking....
