Dreamy Saturday

Today has turned out to be quite a winner, we had a lovely meal out last night at the OAK in Hockley Heath, I stuck to my word and drank a few glasses of wine and pigged out on the best ribeye steak -YUMMY!

I was so knackered (and a tiny bit drunk) that by the time we got home at 10pm that I went straight to bed.  Mark however decided to pay a visit to the pub!! 11.30 he rolls in quite obviously the worse for wear and decides he wants to eat again!  Well I told him not to be daft and he went to bed in a strop, then began to snore so loudly that I had to sleep in the spare bed!!!

This did have its advantages though as I got a really long lie in this morning and managed to finish reading "The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo" on my kindle, brilliant book and can not wait to read the next one.

When I eventually got up Mark was super sorry and took me shopping to buy lots of lovely comfort food!  We have then done a load of work in the veggie patch and I am now about to take a lovely long hot bath and read my kindle whilst in it (yep I invested in a waterproof cover!)

Heaven!

Friday Feeling

Well it is just after 7am in the morning and whilst it is probably a bit early for most, I have been up since 5am!  I am ready in plenty of time for work and had 10 minutes to spare so I thought I would stick to my new years resolution and blog!

I love Friday's and today is no exception.  Friday heralds the last day at work for those who work Monday - Friday and the end of the daily grind for another week.  Not that my life is a daily grind you understand, I love my job, which is a miracle in today's climate!  Still Friday is the signal to start to wind down for the weekend and take it easy for a few days.

Today's Friday feeling is even better as we are off to our favourite restaurant tonight, the Oak in Hockley Heath and I can't wait.  I told Mark a few weeks ago I wanted to go so I could enjoy one last fancy meal before I have to give up the evil drink for 2 weeks due to my eye operation.  So I intend to make the most of it and stuff myself silly and perhaps have a glass (or three) of nice wine.

Then the rest of the weekend is planned with gardening and nothing much...perfect.
