I absolutely love weekends! They are what I do the boring week stuff for. Washing, ironing, cooking, reading school books (much more enjoyable to read library books with the short one), making packed lunches, working out (although I enjoy that part) and dieting.
Weekends are for coming downstairs in the morning with slankets and watching Disney DVDs while we eat breakfast.
Princess and I are avid library goers! Although I find it hard to get out of the house on a Saturday by 11am, when story time is. It's just too early to go out! We read comics together and watch children's TV. Is there anything funnier than a 10 minute episode of Shaun the Sheep that you can watch with your kid?
On Sundays we go swimming. It's free on Sunday at 1pm ( a much more sensible time to be out of the house by). Today, Aurelia learned to float on her back! and actually, with the help of arm bands propelled herself through the water on her back and using a strange hybrid of breast stroke and doggy paddle moved forwards toward me.
The absolute best thing about weekends is that anything goes! Want to wear your tracksuit and slippers with no make-up? That's cool. Want to wear black leggings, tartan skirt, nautical t-shirt, and a mauve cardigan? NO PROBLEM (so long as you change before we go out)!
Don't want to brush your hair? I don't mind, so long as you locate the detangling spray before Monday so you don't scream as loud as usual.
Hugs, music, good food (or bad), TV, comics, and spending time with the people you love. What's not to love about weekends?
If you need a soundtrack, I suggest "Banana Pancakes" by Jack Johnson. Actually almost anything by Jack Johnson as I have a mini crush on the musician.
Have a lovely weekend!
