Happy Sunday, all! Welcome to the first edition of What I Loved. I was thinking about what to post on weekends recently and I though it would be nice, if not all that original, to have a bit of a wrap up of the week. I’m not really sure where this series will go as of yet, but that’s the fun part of blogging!
So, this is what I’ve loved this week:
Work
I’ve mostly been working part time this year, but I’m coming to the end of a project and picked up some extra days. Yay – extra days is extra money. (Sadly I also know I’m about to get a $500+ electricity bill, so the money will disappear straight away.) But it’s also nice to get a project to an end stage, there’s a lot of satisfaction there.
Jacaranda Season
The prettiest time of year in Brisbane, hands down. Jacarandas are a purple flowering tree. Nature really does colours the best.
Time Out
While I like the full time work for the money and the satisfaction, it’s a bit draining when you haven’t done those hours in a long time. I felt very scattered and unsure of what to do, so I took some time out yesterday morning to get all of my notes into one place. And that felt really good. It helped a lot that I did in one of my favourite places:
How was your week? What did you love?
I love Jacaranda season too. So many beautiful trees in our area at the moment, and all the lovely scents that go with it.
I really want to make it to one of the parks that have a heap and go read a book under one 🙂
Nice post! I love the Jacaranda’s too!! I love working part time as well – unfortunately that will have to end for me when my little Miss goes to school in 2016. Have a great Sunday!
Thanks Shelley. I don’t like the part about part time when you earn less, but it makes life a lot more enjoyable on the time front 🙂
Love your new feature, what a great idea! Taking time and and appreciating nature are two of my favourite things. Thanks a bunch for joining the My Monthly Loves link up – hope to see you there again 🙂
Thanks Tara. I feel like I need to remind myself of the good things that happen each week, and why not do it on the blog!?
