With me working full time, renovating on the weekends and blogging in between I feel like there's hardly any time for other things - so I'm giving myself a mini break from today and having a few days off work and into the Long Weekend.
I want to take myself shopping to find some holiday outfits and a new suitcase, give Lexi some much needed exercise and attention and catch up with my gorgeous friends who I don't get to see nearly as much as I want to.

As indulgent as it sounds I also want a PJ wearing day where I get to watch all my favourite shows on Foxtel, paint my nails, read magazines and catch up on my favourite blogs.

I would also love a whole day to bake in my lovely new kitchen ... I'm yet to bake a cake or anything sweet in the new oven. To have a full day to cook a delicious meal for Mr P that we can eat in our newly renovated dining area would be so good.

Another huge milestone this weekend is the AFL Grand Final on Saturday - For my overseas readers this is probably on par with your Super Bowl celebrations! Our top 2 football teams go head to head our West Australian team Fremantle Dockers Vs Victorian team Hawthorn. Mr P is a big Freo Dockers fan and we are throwing a Grand Final Party and having some mates over to watch the game with lots of yummy food and drinking games. Another reason why we've been keen to tidy up the backyard, fix the patio fence and get the kitchen renovation finished.

Here's to mini breaks and recharging the batteries!
I hope everyone has a fantastic week and Long Weekend :)

ReplyDeleteHi Michelle, I was visiting at Khammany's Sweet inspired Home and saw your comments on her post. Jarrah Jungle sounded so interesting. Enjoy your break! You deserve it after completing your kitchen/dining area. I love the mirror and those gorgeous chairs. Great Job. When you come back I will be looking forward to reading your next post. Good luck to your football team.

DeleteI hope you're enjoying your mini break! We had a PJ day yesterday watching DVDs on the couch and eating yummy food (neither of us are footy lovers) and it was just what I needed. I also hope you all had a lovely get together yesterday even though the footy result wasn't what was desired.
