My boyfriend and I!
I wish. This is the photo I was speaking of which made my entire month, my friend is such a legend. I think we make such a fabulous couple.
My weekend: was so lovely. Spent in Warwick with some of my closest girlfriends. We hired a cottage for the weekend and spent the whole weekend eating, drinking and talking. There were not any pimms shots but a lot of gossiping and putting the world right and chilling out. There were however 2 late nights so all in all I was exhausted yesterday. I have now had 5 weekends in a row of being out of London and spending Sunday night driving back feeling horrendously hungover.
On the way back from Warwick we stopped off at Bicester Village for some shopping and I managed to pick up some nude flats from LK Bennett, which are fabulous and should serve well at some weddings and summer parties coming up. I love LK Bennett shoes they have this amazing talent of transforming your feet into wonderful elegant objects.
After two nights of a lot of wine and food I was feeling awful on Sunday evening and dragged my flailing carcus to bed fairly early. I spoke to my boyfriend for a bit, really missing him at the moment as haven't seen him now for over a week. Also feeling dreadfully sorry for him as he ploughs on with endless revision for his finals. How do you revise 4 years worth of teaching for a 2 hour exam? Nightmare.
And this morning: was day 1 of the two week bootcamo before I leave for the countryside. It was a cardio day and involved doing timed running laps, sprinting and circuits. Has anyone ever seen The Little Mermaid, the Disney film? After the session I felt like the little crab Sebastien when he gets thrown through the laundry process and lunch process at the castle - well and truly put through the mill and pulled and twisted in every fashion. I haven't felt so exhausted and pooped since the marathon! But feeling good now, I am going home this evening to sort out and do more packing. I think a bath is needed in order to sort out my weary muscles and send me to sleep nicely this evening. I rarely do baths as I can never be bothered with them. Plus as I stand at nearly 6 foot I don't really fit into baths so either my shoulders get chilly or my knees get chilly. However epsom salt baths are incredible and send you into a complete coma afterwards, which this evening, I have a feeling will be encouraged by my weary self.
My best friend Claudia was with us this weekend and she is 5 months pregnant (and looks amazing). She succumbed this weekend to buying some gorgeous little baby clothes for her little one who is due in September. She also purchased a Cath Kidston changing bag. Claudia is going to be one of those uber trendy yummy mummys. We spoke over the weekend about how we always thought we would be pregnant at the same time as each other when we were younger (we've known each other since we were 8) but she is slightly ahead of me now. However I feel confident that I may be pregnant with my first when she is on her 4th!
Sun is shining and I am wearing my favourite 50s skirt today at work with my mary jane wedges, I feel very spring like and Doris Day inspired. Nothing like a favourite outfit to make you feel wonderful.
Enjoy your Mondays
