im always glad when it reaches monday night, it seems lik
e mondays go on foreeeever. Had a struggle dragging myself outta bed this morn, everyone moans about going back to work on mondays mornings, but since i work sundays in the shop, its xtra tiring in my eyes! Anyway, ill start with sat afternoon where me and mum headed upto london for our usual sat night in the flat... J&P were coming for
dinner so we picked up some JUICY king prawns to make chilli prawn pasta. YUMYUM. no camera (soz) but im sure i will be making it again, so next time...
Sunday started with some nice stretching, ive been holding alot of tension in my back at the mo, thinks its from all the standing up teaching and carrying books around at work, so i did a few (badly performed, im sure) yoga poses and stretches to loosen me up for what was going to be a busy day in the shop... first weekend of the sale-eek! As it happens it wasnt so bad, we're sold out in alot of the cashmere stuff, so luckily not as much running up and down to the stockroom as usual! Had a quick lunch cos we had limited breaks, b
ut managed to nip to Bluebird Cafe and pick up one of their supertasty palmier pastries. which are my all-time fave from when i was a little kid. They're dreamy little heart shaped pastries made with sugared puffpastry and are super decadent but lurvely... I had them all the time in france and this is the only place ive found in the uk that make them as good as the real 'parisienne' deal.
Soo, we arrive at monday morning and my duvet battle. I love my new bed, it loves me... why shud we be parted?!?! Still i got up and had a power shower, cold blast at the end to get me tingling. Then the usual lemon & honey and porridge. have bee
n toying with getting some protein powder to bulk up my morning brekkie. im trying to gain weight but want to go about it sensibly rather than just stuffing my face with burgers and cakes like so many people think its acceptable to tell you. Thanks, but i'll leave the heart-attack for you if thats ok....
Mum was still in bed when i left (some people have all the luck!) But she's been pretty low lately, and im always running around doing school/work stuff, so i left her a little note on the kitchen board so she's have something to read when she got up :-)
School was buzzing monday morning stylee, my form were their usual boisterous selves. Its the first proper monday back after all the snow day madness, so i had a little extra work to catch pupils up on for those who missed last week. Rushing about all morn, pop art, bodies in motion.... finally stopped for lunch and had some sushi on the go for lunch before rushing back to set up a printing area for my year 9's. These guys are great, one of my fave classes, it ends monday nicely in a chilled out way before i start my art club after school. Newbies this term!!! My usually small group has grown tenfold! instead of 5 littluns, i now have 12! wow, i guess word spreads. I made them make sticky name badges cos im never gonna remember all their names.... :-p
