Saturdaytastic!

During my week I often think about things I could blog about. These are often important deep and meaningful things that challenge me about life. However when it comes to actually typing about it writers block kicks in and I end up writing about something else (usually trivial). Today is no exception. Well apart from the fact I have nothing deep and meaningful but just fancied writing so I thought I'd share a bit about my day (if anyone's interested).

Saturdays are fast becoming my favourite day of the week. Mainly because I get a whole day with J and O without the feeling of work approaching doom that comes with Sunday.

So today went as follows;

Had a lay in until 9.50 (thank you J for getting up with O, I am SO grateful! ). We all spent the day in our pjs watching telly and playing. Whilst this may sound slobby, I love it. I find a huge amount of joy in being able to sit on the sofa in a pair of fleecy baggy trousers with an elasticated waist and have spent many a Saturday in such a state. Today we discovered BBC 2's new drama 'The Honourable Woman' on i-player. I'm hooked, I think it's going to be a really good series which will be very welcome after the disappointment of the new series' of 24 and Hannibal.

Anyway, slobbing, eating and playtime was followed by a quick clean and tidy up (stuff shoved in drawers and a spritz of antibacterial spray around the house). We then got dressed and went to my mums for fajitas (a staple Saturday night dinner in my family).

Dinner wolfed down and a bag of food to bring home(thanks mum!), we returned to our house to get O to bed and again I find myself sat in my pjs watching telly.

As I predicted yesterday, there were times today when I wished I were doing something more 'significant'. Times when I compared myself to others, times spent daydreaming about other places but when it comes down to it, a relaxed day at home with my beloved family is a rich and abundant day.

Hope you're enjoying your Saturday!
