It has been a while since I have looked forward to a weekend
this much. Of course, I look forward to
every weekend but this has been one of those
weeks. After a busy Monday and Tuesday (already addressed in the last post)
Wednesday wasn’t all that great either when I discovered a disgusting amount of
mould on my wall and even some of my books. We’ve had mould issues for a while which
our landlords promised to fix but it’s taking a while.
Anyway, on Thursday night I had a catch up with my friend
Katherine. I hadn’t seen Katherine in forever
so we spent the evening chatting over some lovely food at Wahaca (we had a
selection platter of tapas) and then walked by Southbank. It was a lovely
evening!
I had a lazy, early night in on Friday and after way too much
sleep, woke up fresh-faced on Saturday and went into crazy-cleaning-lady mode. I
decided to completely rearrange my room, move my bed and shelves to different
sides of the room (away from the mouldy wall), deep clean the entire room, including
the disgusting wall. This ‘lovely’ task took my entire morning and quite a bit
of the afternoon. I spent the rest of the day watching plenty of telly and
trying to keep warm (the latter part was unsuccessful).
In the evening, my friend Rosie came over for dinner. We were
supposed to go out for some dancing but since she was on antibiotics and Steph
was unwell, we stayed and chatted over some homemade veggie chilli (pretty
yummy, even if I do say so myself), lemon tart (shop bought) and wine (not for
Rosie, of course). It was the nicest evening!
Today, after an awful night’s sleep, I spent the morning in
bed with too much coffee, some leftover lemon tart and Hart of Dixie (it’s my
addiction!) Being sick of all the lazy, I eventually got myself up and ready
and headed to the V&A. I had never been there before and figured it was
high time I gave the place a visit.
I’m not a fan of sculptures and didn’t look enough into the
exhibitions enough to buy a ticket for one so I was a little doubtful on how
well the trip would go but actually it was really interesting! I did end up
ignoring all the sculptures but the some of the architectural pieces were
incredible, as were the East Asian rugs and furniture- the work was so
intricate, I was amazed someone did that 100s of years ago in a pre-computer
age!
After a bit more mooching, I got the train up to High Street
Kensington to pop into some shops, including WholeFoods. I haven’t been there
for a while and bought the odd “healthy” snack, including my new food obsession;
pitta chips (I ate so much, I now feel a little sick). The evening was spent
watching more Hart of Dixie and sorting some admin stuff out on my computer
which has made me so sleepy and my eyes slightly square!
Hope everyone has a wonderful week!
