Week in the Life: +1 - Monday

Last week, Ali Edwards invited everyone to join her in recording a Week in the Life. I really wanted to join in, but last week wasn't the right week for me. I was tired, I had a cold, my tummy was playing up and I could not put myself to recording anything, I just wished the days would pass quietly.

But it's Monday again, and I'm feeling much better, so I thought why not just start it a week later. So, here are my pictures for Monday:



And my notes:

• 6.28 hrs alarm goes off
• 6.30 hrs listen to the news on CapitalFM and the pun of the day from a newspaper article.
• 6.40 hrs got up to have a shower.
• Weighed myself, 64.4kg. I've done this every Monday morning for many years now, and have started again after the scales were delivered in the shipment three weeks ago.
  
• Got dressed
• 7.20 hrs Ruben's walks into our bedroom to have his tie tied.

• Treated builders to coffee and cheesecake too.
• 11.15 hrs Did the ironing and watched P.S. I love you for the second time to attempt to watch it to the end this time. Stopped it again, as I don't seem to get myself into the movie.
• 12.40 hrs Stripped our bed to be washed and made the children's bed. Opened some windows for some fresh fall air.
• 13.15 hrs Had toasted ham, cheese, tomato and rocket sandwich, carrots and cucumber for lunch.
