A Week of Highs and Lows - God Bless Sundays!

Quack!

This week has been pretty worrying, with my little blog getting some traffic from sites that can best be described as not my cup of tea.  I am no prude, don't get me wrong - but how and why a community of people interested in sharing themselves in the most intimate of manners could want to be connected to my blog is beyond me.

Anyway, a quick tweak to my details and I seem to have lost them....fingers crossed.  If the blog suddenly disappears, you'll know that I didn't shake them off as successfully as I had hoped.

On to other things......this week has seen me notch up my 90th follower.  This is very exciting for me and gets me closer to my overall target of 100 followers. 

My blogging frequency has dropped but that is in part due to the invasion explained above, and partly because my creative well remains a little dry.

I am off for some pre-birthday shopping now (mine!), and I need to get ready, so I will sign off with the following two messages:

1. If you feel inclined to take pity on me and help me reach 100 followers I would be nothing but grateful and would follow you straight back!
2. Have the most wonderfully relaxing Sunday you can find!

When Do I Get My Sunday? Hmmmm?

Sunday should be a day of rest should it not?  A day when you should be able to put your feet up and relax after six days of hard work and effort.

It should be a day when you can spend an extra hour in bed, where it is okay to take a little longer to drink your morning tea and a day when there should be no pressing requirement to do anything at all.

This is what my Sunday looks like!

So why, dear reader, was I sprinting out of bed at an ungodly hour to get myself washed and dressed and downstairs to make bread, then rushing back upstairs to tip my beloved out of the bed (that he had yet to move from) so that I could change and wash the sheets.

Where in my idea of what Sunday should be does it say that I would be sitting at the kitchen table prompting my son to think of his favorite quotes from Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone so as to demonstrate his recognition of an example of an excellent application of the English language (he is eight for goodness sake!).

When I eventually sat down with the proverbial cup of tea, I am on the net, ordering school photographs online before passing the details, school uniform, completed homework and school bag over to his father who will arrive at midday to collect him.

Bread is now in the oven, child is with his father, husband has moved from bed to chair and remains motionlessly playing his Nintendo DS.  All I have to do before I can become blissfully motionless is to make lunch, wash the kitchen floor, wash and dry two loads of laundry and make a roast beef dinner.

So by my reckoning, I should be able to sit down and enjoy my Sunday at about 7pm tonight.  Leaving me a full three hours before my eyes get heavy, I crawl up to my (freshly laundered) bed and drop off to sleep.

I hope your Sunday is more restful than mine!

Sunday Fun!

Happy Sunday everyone!

To celebrate the fact that it is cold, wet, dark (it's late afternoon here in the UK and it's really dark already!) I have decided to add some fun to my blog......

Check out the Wibiya tool bar at the bottom of the screen - I have added three really addictive games for you to have a go at.....I have personally checked them all out for you and have to say that Connect 4 is super addictive and I am absolutely rubbish at Asteroid Field!!!!

Also, if you fancy some bloghop fun, you should try out one I found earlier.........

There are only two rules......follow the first two blogs on the list (It's their hop) and follow me before you go.

Have a great Sunday everyone !! 

Must....Have....Sleep....Zzzzzzz

This is going to be a short post.  Illness seems to have struck the Angel household with both my husband and I feeling under the weather, and only my son - buried in a sea of Harry Potter Lego - seems to be okay. 

I have an extreme need to sleep and cannot even find the energy to knit (gasp!).

So, if you have stumbled across my blog in the hope of something dazzling, I can only apologise - the best I can offer you is some hot guys, some musings on happiness, more hot guys or you can click on some of my best bits over to the left.

I will be back with something fabulously entertaining and informative as soon as I can, but for now....enjoy your Sunday and God bless.
