I just live because I love to and that’s enough you see
Today I worked from 9am to 2pm, processing the few orders and answering the sprinkling of emails that came in. It’s slow after Christmas in the ‘retail’ job I’m currently working in & the air is only just free from the bitter freeze we’ve had lately. Yesterday morning I saw grass properly for the first time in weeks and it was glorious.
I came home and sat down with the newspaper, a cup of orange pekoe and put the new album from First Aid Kit on to review for DrunkenWerewolf Magazine. There is surely no better way to spend a Sunday. I love spreading the sections across the floor and sitting cross-legged in amongst the pages.
I need to improve my photography, I know, so that & keeping up this blog is something I’m determined to do. My life is full of lists and waiting right now. I have resolutions and to dos, favourite foods and music I don’t listen to enough, people I need to tell how special they are and colours I should paint my nails; all on scraps on paper, in pockets and drawers. 2010 is two weeks old & I already know it’s going to be special.
I hope you’re having a good Sunday too.
your sunday sounds pretty perfect! i wish i could afford subscribing to a newspaper as well.
also like the sound of your lists!

Improve your photography? I think this is lovely shot.
Also, is that filtered water, or does it come out of the tap that soft?

@Dan Vesma, Thanks! I used to take photos all the time, but somehow stopped and barely seemed to have picked up a camera in a year. Just need to get back in the swing of things really.
And yes, it’s straight from the tap! Considering how much water I drink, it’s really good just how nice it is.

*glomps*
tsk tsk, get right on that! I know you’ll have a stellar year, being stellar yourself, of course!
If you wanna nerd out, photographically, you know how to get a hold of me.

@Katja, For some strange reason your comments had been filtered. :\ Sorry!
I keep eyeing up the subcription deals & plan to get one when I move down to London, but we shall see. I mostly read internet news & the paper at the weekend. Hmhm.
