Things on my mind

I can't seem to concentrate at all today- possibly because its Friday or the fact I just desperately want to escape to somewhere quieter again with J.

I have been wrapping parcels all morning to the nicest sounding addresses ever. Some of the names make me think they all live in quaint little cottages like this one above in the countryside.

I'm also freezing and have our Handol wood burner on.

Tomato soup is also on the brain as I was really looking forward to my home made tomato and basil soup with some nice warm crusty bread for me and Gill at work...but this morning when I went into the kitchen it had gone...my friend had come home drunk last night and eaten it. I wasn't happy. And I'm still craving some.


Work is going alright...had a few meetings with big brands but now my afternoon is clear and all the parcels are wrapped and ready to go and so my motivation has disappeared.
I can't wait for the weekend, despite having to work till 2pm tomorrow!

13-15th



Valentines Day was hopelessly romantic as we stayed in the beautiful Nunsmere Hall in Cheshire - a grand Victorian mansion set in the countryside. It was a complete fairy tale house and the perfect escapism for the weekend.





I didn't want to go back to work the next day, I could've quite happily stayed sipping champagne in bed a lot longer! J. bought me a laptop..not the most romantic gift but probably the most thoughtful as he knew how much I was having trouble with mine and how it was hindering my designs. Ahh such happy days <3>
