dear international blog readers…are you fed up of reading about snow yet? ;) it seems like the whole of british blog land has gone crazy for it! i promise i’ll only mention it once or twice in this post. i guess we british just can’t help but obsess over our crazy old weather! and the snow is so pretty, after all…
so, i’ve not been to university for a week. a week! thank you, snow. (p.s. that doesn’t count as me talking about snow.) being holed up inside for days on end really appeals to the introvert in me. actively being encouraged not to leave the house? um, okay!! i’ve been making the most of these cosy days by wearing pyjamas till noon.
my days at home have been pretty productive though, i promise! i’ve given our little house a mini ‘spring’ clean, washed the items of clothing that always linger at the bottom of the laundry basket (i’m looking at you, cashmere blends) and even polished up the oven. cleaning the house with ted around is always a bit of a drama. he’s been terrified of the vacuum cleaner/broom/duster and polish ever since he was tiny, and has recently progressed from plain old barking at whatever cleaning implement i’m holding, to deliberately doing naughty things to distract me from the task at hand. yesterday, he paraded around with a stolen tea towel whilst i tried to dust, and the day before that he chewed a hole in my nice new fancypants gloves whilst i was cleaning the kitchen. sigh.
ted and i have been watching a fair bit of trash telly, in between all this industrious cleaning/glove chewing. four words for you: ‘what happens in kavos‘. oh.my.goodness. i know i’m a prude, but seriously?! if you want to be shocked to your very core, go watch it. i guess i am easily shockable though, because on monday evening when my ma text me at 9.30 saying she was just starting to bake a cake, i was like…’woah. have you seen the time? it’s nine.thirty… isn’t it kind of late to bake?’ i think i maybe need to loosen up a little. just not as much as those kids in kavos…
