#100HAPPYDAYS ROUND 2: DAYS 61-70

Happy Monday everyone! Here’s another 10 days worth of happiness, posted on my Instagram account. I am almost done now, and I can’t wait to have another successful happy days behind me.

Day 61: Did a Parkrun and got some excellent step counts in. Woohoo!

Day 62: My mom got me this France mug. It is now my favorite mug.

Day 63: No visit to Nelspruit is complete without a trip to the coffee shop around Bestie’s house, and we went three times. Because coffee is delicious.

Day 64: Besties birthday!!! We had delicious steaks at Cicadas in Nelspruit. This is Steak with Halloumi, bacon and Onion jam. Salivating.

Day 65: After an astonishing day of bad service, we licked our wounds at Cicadas with Strawberry Daquiries and Burgers. SO GOOD, with excellent service

Day 66: We got our movie day in with two old favorites. The two new films (Chef and Arrival), now joins the favorite list.

Day 67: A fun birthday braai with illuminating new terminology learnt!

 

Day 68: Remember my project on day 58 – check how it grew!

Day 69: Roadtrip home. It was such a wonderful visit, thanks bestie!

Day 70: More rings from Woolworths. These are so me!

What have you been up to lately?

Love/Hate Tag

I was nominated by the mastermind between My Tiny Obsessions for this interesting challenge, and naturally I jumped right in! I’m not going to specifically nominate, but if you read this and you want to take part, please please do! 😀

10 Things I Love:

Knowledge. To me there is no other thing as powerful as someone armed with good information. I get so ridiculously excited when I read about interesting things. I used to be such a news junkie (I stopped that and you can read WHY here) but I remain a general know-it-all (and probably a bit of a pain in the ass because of it).

Books: It is probably a result of my thirst for knowledge, but man do I enjoy a good book.

Taking people on about sexism: I often think that sexist remarks delivered unconsciously is much worse than the remarks made as a deliberate attack on someone. I love pointing them out because men really do need to made aware that they are furthering the sexist environment that women are so desperately trying to get free from.

Coffee: Otherwise known as my bloodtype

Love stories: They are by far my favorite genre. I enjoy many movies across the genre board, but movies about love conquering immense odds remains the best thing to watch.

My blog: It makes me so happy. It has gone much bigger than I would ever have thought possible and I just get such immense joy from it.

My dog: She is such a little cartoon and provides endless entertainment by her dramatic nature.

My family: We are going through a rather rough time right now with my dad being so ill, but I am so fortunate to have such a loving family.

Snuggling in with a good book on a rainy day: It has been WAY too long since I’ve done this, but there is nothing better than just listening to the rain patter on the roof while you lose yourself in a story.

Dan Stevens: Current mancrush extraordinaire

10 Things I hate: 

Anti-Vaxxers. Kill me. Now.

People who don’t appreciate hard work.

People who are rude to waiters.

Traffic.

Bad Signal.

My laptop. I desperately need it to work – hallo, who has money for a new one? But sheesh I just want to throw it out of the window and be done with it.

People who are full of spoilers. GRRRRR.

Sexism and Racism

Intolerance to other religions

The Petrol price. WTF world?!

Monday, er Tuesday

Good morning

I am so confused. We had a public holiday yesterday and now I am struggling to remember it is Tuesday. How confusing.

This weekend was awesome. I love long weekends. I read, I slept, I watched movies and series. I didn’t want to come back. But I am here today, because I need a salary. And I like my job.

But I am living on coffee right now, as I overslept and am so foggy right now. Love coffee.
