Tuesday Tune

I recently got Spotify and I discovered Sleigh Bells and oh my goodness I cannot stop listening to this song. It is amazing

I cannot recommend Spotify enough. I have the free version for now, but I think you can pay either $5 or $11 depending on what you want. Either way, you just search nearly any band and find their albums and tacks and you can listen to them.

A wonderful way to find new music!!

Blogging

I really, really want to be a good blogger. I want to make a post everyday to keep my thoughts and interests in order and I would LOVE to make friends through blogging.

I have just been so damn busy lately. Planning a kitchen tea, now a hens night and also y'know...the whole wedding thing AND the honeymoon...it's just putting a lot of pressure and stress on my mind and body at the moment. 

I am so excited for the wedding but to be honest I can't wait til it's all over and we are sailing around on a cruise ship, and then when we get home we have a week off work to relax some more! Though I may just spend 7 days cuddling my cats because I will miss them so much. I hope they won't be too mad at me.

I am also looking forward to having space back. Wedding stuff has taken over our house. There's stuff in the linen press and all over my desk (I can't actually use it) and behind my desk and in the spare room. It's ridiculous.

So I hereby proclaim that when the wedding is over and we are back from our holiday I will get started blogging properly, because I really enjoy it :) 

Music Monday

Gruff Rhys - Whale Trail 

My brother messaged me last night and told me to download the free Whale Trail app on my iPhone because I will like the song. And he was right! It's sung by Gruff Rhys, one of my all time favourite musicians. 

He was the lead singer for Super Furry Animals and makes some great solo music too.

The app is pretty fun, and the song is awesome!

Music Monday

of Montreal - Neat Little Domestic Life

This is one of my favourites, as it is pretty much how I want my life to be. I want a domestic life. 

A life of making a home and having a family with my wonderful soon to be husband.

I want to travel a bit first, but I want to settle down into a nicer home soon and get cracking on making it how we want it to be.

I love thinking about the possibilities and I know he feels the same way <3

Weekend Plans

I am so very excited for the Easter long weekend. Ah, 4 days off work!

I have a few things on my to-do list and I thought if I write them here I might do them all...(probably not)

-wash car, clean it out and vacuum it
-clear out bathroom cupboard/drawer and organise them
-organise chest of drawers so that I can get stuff out of them
-see family for Easter
-eat chocolate
-bake cookies
-organise some new blog posts
-chuck out old nail polishes
-go through all my old magazines
-get cracking on making our wedding invites
-go through all my photos on my computer and sort them into folders so that I can find them
-organise bookmarks
-read a good chunk of Neverwhere
-catch up on Once Upon a Time
-watch the new episode of Game of Thrones


I think 4 days is enough time to do all of these things...right?
