It has been a really great week. I relaxed a lot and got to spend time with friends too.
Thursday afternoon found me out with my friend Laura, who just also happens to be my neighbour. She has decided to re-decorate her living room. Since she knows that I love decorating, she wanted me to go out with her and check out some new sofas. What a blast we had!!!! I get sooo happy being in furniture shops.
We didn´t go to Ikea this time, as she also wanted a sofa that could turn into a bed and we knew a shop that specialised in these, so we went there.
So many decisions to make......
To celebrate we went out to eat! Something I also love to do!! We had a lovely evening in a wee cafe!
Friday found me at home together with Leah. We had a cosy day relaxing.
Andrew meanwhile has gotten himself a Saturday job in the post office. He had to go to work each day this week to learn the system. So he hasn´t had much of a holiday. Each morning he has been up at 5.30am so he could be there by 6.15am. He started on Tuesday and that afternoon he had us in fits of laughter with the stories he had to tell.
The first thing to go wrong happened a couple of hours into his morning.
They had just sorted the post and were having a coffee break before heading out to deliver it all. Andrew just happened to pour the coffee all over himself!! Down his shirt and over his jeans. Luckily the coffee was not boiling hot and he was not injured, just embrassed. He was able to change his uniform before heading out.
Then he had to ride a moped for the first time. The guy didn´t really explain it all very well (or that´s his story) but he got on the moped, with the boxes and bags attached to carry the mail. It was heavier than he thought. He turned it on and the moped took off! He couldn´t remember where the brake was and as he tried to stop the thing it only went faster! He ended up crashing into a big green bin! Oh my I could just see it all for me! The tears were tripping me when he told me all about this. He said they all had a good laugh and after that he was given better instructions about how to handle it!
He did hurt his leg a little in the crash! Poor wee fella! Anyway he likes the job and has got the hang of everything, including the moped! He now only has to work on a Saturday. He is happy to be earning a little extra money!
Kristian received envelope number 8
It was for today - Valentines Day. We headed out for brunch and then went for a walk on the beach. While walking we had to each share 5 memories that were special to us. Memories we have made since the time we got married. It was really fun! We only had 1 memory that we both thought of that was the same.
We also didn´t stop at 5 we kept going because we were having sooo much fun remembering! It made us thankful as we thought about how blessed we are! We have created soooo many great memories together and even now, we love being together, we love creating new memories.
The weather wasn´t the best but we still enjoyed our walk. We then drove down the coast road and ended up in Ikea! We bought ourselves a new rug for the dining room.
Then we headed home. We were still feeling sooo stuffed from our brunch that we decided to have a light dinner of cheese, salami, and bread. It was really delicious. We ended the evening in front of the TV watching a film.
The perfect way to end a great day!
