My week #8

I always feel a bit naughty when I don't write my My Week posts on a Sunday but sometimes the weekends are too busy and I have to push it back to Monday.  So here are my pages, a little later than planned!

My week in my Filofax #8

Last week was great, it was half term so my eldest two were off school and we got to have some fun.  We went swimming on Monday and ended up spending most of the afternoon there.  We were all starving by the time we got out of the pool so we had a plate of chips each smothered in salt, vinegar and tomato sauce.  Honestly I don't know why they sell chips in leisure centres when most people go there to get healthy but they do hit the spot after a swim!

We had a couple of lazy days at home, watching dvds and playing Minecraft (my son is obsessed with that game!) and by Friday the weather had cleared up so we went to the park.  It was nice to spend some time outside after being cooped up.

On Sunday I was the Reader Under The Spotlight over on Philofaxy.  It was so fun to do and it feels pretty amazing to be published on such a popular blog!  I got some lovely comments on the post and a couple of messages from people saying they had enjoyed reading it which really made my day.

How was your week?

My week #7

I kind of ruined this week's valentines theme with my excitement for the mid season premier of The Walking Dead but it was worth it!  Luckily we get it shown here in the UK only one day after America so I didn't have to wait too long to see it.

My week in my Filofax #7

The whole week is kind of messy, everyone in the house came down with a bug so I didn't really have much time to spend on my pages.  Their main function is to keep me on track though so they did their job.

Everyone was feeling better by Friday so we got to celebrate valentines day with a meal once the children were in bed.  My husband cooked his speciality - spaghetti bolognese and it was delicious as always!

I finished my Faye Kellerman book this morning so I need some recommendations for what to read next please.  I like mysteries and chic lit but I'm open to other genre too so if you have read any good books lately let me know and I will see if I can order them from the library.

Thanks!

I'm famous! Well kind of...

This is so exciting for me I just had to share it with you!  My #filophotofriday challenge was mentioned in this fab video by Alexis aka Miss Trenchcoat.  




I really enjoyed watching her set up but if you don't have a spare half an hour you can skip to 12:00 to see the bit I'm talking about and watch the rest later.  It is only about a minute long, blink and you'll miss it but I still think it's so cool!  

If you want to join in with #filophotofriday the prompt for today is I adore... and then share your picture with the tag on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.  Oh and happy valentines day!
