Thursdays hey??

Don't you just wish Thursdays were the last day of the working week?? Today, here in Sydney, it feels like a Spring afternoon and such a day in Winter is really only fitting for a Friday. Knock off early, meet your friends at the pub, sit in the beer garden talking about the week that was.....

But no. Thursdays are grocery shopping days, working out the fortnightly budget days, not having a wine because you've told yourself to not drink during the week, days.

Sometimes I find the only way to combat the mundane-ness (?), mundanity (?) is to write a list. (And listen to The Beach Boys, of course). That way I feel like I've achieved things, even if they're mundane. And that makes me happy. So tonight I have to:

- Pour new resin earrings
- Do the 3 piles of ironing currently sitting on the lounge
- Go grocery shopping
- Make dinner
- Package my Etsy sale from today (number 2 - in 6 days of Etsy-life - not bad at all!!)

This list makes me particularly happy. Not "Wow, its Friday afternoon lets go to the pub" kind of happy, but "Wow, I've got a pretty sweet life" kind of happy. I love doing normal things with my husband. I remember, before we got married, wanting nothing more than to come home and make a meal with him, sit down, watch some telly and crash out. It is these times that make up the bulk of our lives. These moments make the really special ones shine even more, and I, for one am grateful for them...

I told you lists make me happy!!

So I hope you (all - I feel ridiculous writing that!!) have as mundane an evening as me...

WOOF!
