Semi-Lazy Bank Holiday

Today was a lovely little day. Nothing much of note really occurred, but I figured I'd blog about it anyhow just to get into the habit. We wanted to make the most of our bank holiday together whilst still getting something accomplished, so we decided to trek over to the Trafford Centre to get the girls' feet measured and buy new shoes. In the end, neither of their feet had grown at all since the last shoe purchases, so in one sense it was an unneccessary trip. But we had a good time wandering about, looking at the fountains and eating a Nandos lunch (yummy)! On the way home, we stopped off at a camping shop and bought some essential gear in the hopes that we can try out all of our new equipment soon. We got home too late for naps, but I got a bit of bedroom tidying done. The rest of the house is a complete tip, but I guess we'll deal with that another day.

Now, as the day draws to a close, my thoughts are turning back to regular life... printing off my chore list for the week, creating our meal plan and organising our days. I have been really trying to become more patient lately and to enjoy regular daily life instead of always waiting for the good bits of life to come along. It's all good, and I don't want to miss out on any of it by always looking ahead to the next exciting bit. This should be a week for practicing that. Nothing special planned, just life to live.
