Lazyitus or am I just a slow person?

I am off work for today and tomorrow, as I only work 3 days per week when I am not studying. I have just realised that it is close to 4pm and all I have achieved today is umm...
  1. Ordered an ink cartridge and spent an hour plus deciding what else I should purchase from Amazon to make up the free delivery. So in actual fact the print cartridge cost me £20, when I could have bought it from Smiths for £10. Oops. (I bought Sew Pretty Projects)
  2. Dyed my hair.
  3. Cleaned the bathroom. Only because I got hair dye on the walls. Oops.
  4. Phoned the mechanic to fix my car and made an appointment for tomorrow, which he could of done today, but I didn't want to have to put my make up on and actually find clothes that match.
  5. Washed the dishes. Decided it was better than boyfriend rolling eyes at me for doing now't.

I wish there was a 6th item, but I think that I am just incredibly lazy or incredibly slow.

Hello!

Well today will be the first entry of on my blog. I guess I should do a little round up of why I am writing a blog and what’s happening in my life at the moment. I am going to be keeping a blog to record all the things that go on in my life, so you can expect entries about what I have made for dinner, what the weather is like (oh how the English love to talk drizzle!), places of interest I have visited, the tribulations of my wedding planning, pictures of homemade wonders or just things I like and general rambling.

It is a raining wet July day and I am debating about whether to get the staff bus into town at lunch time and visit one of my favourite craft shops and possibly purchase some new fabrics for a brand new project (yet to be decided), or whether to wait until home time and make some on line purchases. I am thinking about making some pot holders, bit of a trial really and also an excuse to use up some beautiful peacock fabric that I cut to the wrong size! I am thinking either a log cabin type affair or something a bit simpler to showcase the peacocks.
