Grateful Saturday...



Another week has gone by, and boy am I glad that it's the weekend. I woke up at 5am, started to sit up so that I could properly wake before getting ready for work, and then realised that it was Saturday. I literally fist pumped before entering relaxation mode.

This week I am grateful for:

1. Staying positive

A couple of days ago, at 6am, my desk exploded.

I wasn't anywhere near it, but it just decided to shatter. Glass everywhere. It still is - it's a long process cleaning shards of glass, so tiny they look like dust, out of the study, hallway and clothes.

The good news? I get to buy a new desk! Stay tuned for photos when I eventually buy it...

2. Routine

I have been having a fairly ordinary couple of weeks, but knowing that my Saturday morning routine was approaching kept me going. Coffee, watching the birds outside, blogging, all in a very quiet neighbourhood where it feels as though I'm the only person up and about (and in this rainy weather, I probably am!) I really love my Saturday mornings, and wouldn't change them.

3. Apple

On Thursday night EA and I caved and I am now the very proud owner of an iPad.

It is my new diary, amongst many other things. I set up Air Video this morning, which is possibly the coolest thing ever invented. I will probably blog at a later date about the apps that I'm loving.

What are you grateful for this week? Drop by Maxabella Loves and link up!

Your desk exploded? What would cause such a thing? It's making me rethink the glass coffee table I was considering...

I've heard of glass oven doors exploding recently too! Maybe we should be more aware of these things?

I love my iPad, I've had it since three days after it was released - of course, because I am a huge Apple whore, as you know! I still don't use it to it's full potential though.

Your desk exploded? Wow, that sounds so freaky. Very jealous about your iPad, I bet you can have some great running applications on it too! Enjoy, you deserve it. xx
