Things I learned this week including that there are definitely enough hours in a day


I had a great week this week. LOML and I sent the Tsunamis to their real life destinations and continued our holidays on Monday and Tuesday without them. We agreed that we'd do whatever made us happiest on the Monday... so I sorted through some cupboards. On the Tuesday (following Zia Maria's funeral - vale Zia) we went for a sushi lunch, a magazine read at Borders and a swing in the hammock at home. Bliss.

I learned a few things along the way...

1. Even though I often find myself wishing there were more hours in a day, I've realised this week that I physically couldn't cope with such a thing. Exhausted.


2. The veins in elephant's ears are unique to each one. So their ears are like our fingerprints.

3. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. So I got off my insanity wagon and have changed the way I eat in a radical way. Take that 20 year diet!

4. Christmas is only 75 sleeps away... or at least it was when I saw Louise's post over at Table Tonic and I haven't exactly been keeping track since then. But 75 doesn't seem like many, does it? Panic. I did spot the most luscious Lundby doll's house ever on page 3 in the Axis catalogue. Our dolls are well housed in what can only be described as a doll's neighbourhood, so we won't be purchasing. But there's something about a beautiful doll's house, isn't there?

5. You're never too old for lollipops.


How was your week? Did you learn anything new to share?

PS - Happy birthday to my gorgeous man, who never misses a post and never misses an opportunity to make me feel happy. Every day is a birthday when I'm with you.
