two little days off :)

So I had yesterday and today off, and all to myself. I had nothing planned, but that's what I enjoy the most. The French have a phrase which goes, "Je voudrais flâner avec toi" meaning I would like to walk around aimlessly with you, and I think this is one of life's greatest privileges, to plan to do nothing :)


Monday morning started off with a humid two mile walk along the River Lagan. I love good walks in the morning, they really wake me up and put me in a great mood. I got ready and headed round to my parents house to visit them and my pup Tyler, (who isn't really a pup anymore). Later that evening, I picked my boyfriend up from work, we went home and made DELICIOUS, but extremely spicy chili beef burritos with tons of salad. We watched an early evening movie, then decided to 'flâner' down the towpath along the Lagan. It was lovely, we are so lucky to live right beside it. We got to see baby ducklings, swans and their ADORABLE cygnets, creepy staring cows and some water hens. 


Here are my Monday photos....

This is my pup Tyler. 

My dad's shoes which I LOVE. His Barker Brogues. I want a pair so bad.

Today started off with making a card for my cousin in London who just got engaged. I recently started going to a small card making class with my boyfriend's family and made my dad a super cute Father's Day card, so my mum wanted me to make one for Cheriee's engagement. I didn't have much material to make it with but I made a simple pink one for her. 

Later in the afternoon, I went to the library to get myself a cheesy crime novel as I read them like a machine. SUPER FAST. I love the 'omg who done it' aspect to them. They are great to escape into.

Afterwards, I waited at my mum and dad's again until my boy finished work and I got to hang out with 'Big T' again, aka Tyler. 

My boyfriend and I are just chilling out tonight, maybe get stuck into '24' again, and get an early night, as I go back to work tomorrow :(

I'll leave you with some photos from today! Hope you had a good start to your week! Let's hope the sunny weather comes back!!
