The attorneys have been away today, and you'd think that it'd make for an uproarious day, but instead I've gotten a LOT done, and we all shared an amazing meal together.

I feel calm, and quiet, and introspective. A weekend that was supposed to be at the weekend will now be spent at home, and I'm really quite pleased about it!

so things that sound absolutely lovely right now:

eating leftover mashedpotatoes
RICE KRISPY TREATSSS!
playing the weird mouse game with the girlies
watching HP (again and again)
badminton in this balmy weather? yes, i think so
deep cleaning some drawers in the kitchen
working on 'the skirt'

Tuesday Fives!: Comforting Things Starting with the Letter 'H'

Took a week off, but i'm back!

5 Things that are Oh-SO-Comforting that Start with the Letter ‘H’.

HARRY POTTER! I’m definitely in some weird hypnotic haze with Harry lately. The girls can always persuade me to watch a Harry Potter movie. ALWAYS. Curled up with them seeing Harry fly around is really about the best thing ever!
Hannah Snuggles. Where do kids learn how to snuggle? She’s not afraid to plant herself in the crook of your arm and hold on for dear life should she be on the edge of the couch.
Hot cocoa. LOVE that it’s cocoa season. YUM! YUM! So warm and lovely. So utterly perfect.
Harmony – especially Beatles’ harmony. Playing Beatles Rockband with my fave people is one of the finest things in life. Why can certain music ease your soul so perfectly?
Helsinki. (okay, maybe I ran out of ‘H’ words!)
