Tuesday Rocks

 

 

 

Phew!  It’s not actually the start of the week anymore.

Moanday has been and gone and I can stop focusing so much on what needs to  be done for the rest of this week and a little more on me and what makes me happy.

After another wonderful weekend down at Hollow’s Haven (Marcia’s lovely home in Hamilton) and a fabulous dinner at Victoria Street Bistro for her birthday, I have a couple of days in Auckland and then I am off to Wellington again.

I am starting to really quite like Tuesday’s.
Tuesday doesn’t have the intensity of Monday.  I don’t have to make a list of what didn’t get finished last week, collate the requests I have received over the weekend and try and anticipate some others.  There is no flitting from one meeting to the next.
And I have groceries!!!  There is no last minute scrambling to prepare dinner from some limp spring onions, a packet of udon noodles and some chicken stock.

Girls out to Dinner

Saturday night and 5 of us went out for dinner for Marcia’s birthday.
We started off with pre dinner drinks and then headed in to Hamilton to Victoria Street Bistro. The food was delicious – and the company was just hilarious.

Kittens and Cats

Adding pictures – but mainly gifs – of kittens and cats to my Tumblr.
Some days, the best recipe for a smile is simply a gif of a kitten.

I’d love to have another kitten – but we’ve tried that.  And the Boss didn’t like it one bit.  So The Treehouse will be a one cat house for quite some time.
Thank goodness for the internet.

Game of Thrones

I am currently reading the third book in the series and I am loving it.
Whilst having a quick look through my Google Readder, I came across these bookcovers/illustrations today.  I think they are fantastic.

If you know who created them – would you let me know please?

Holy Shit Facts

I found these Holy Shit Facts on Reddit and I spent a good couple of hours tweeting them and some other facts that I started looking up.
Our world is really quite amazing and from history to science to nature to ourselves, I feel like I know so little.  And even worse, that I haven’t taken any time to learn more about it.

Here’s to the rest of the week!
