London calling!

What made me happy today? London is calling!
And I will answer :-) It was my brain twin's birthday last weekend, and we'll celebrate it in style this weekend! The BF is coming as well, it'll be his fist trip in London. I'm happy he's coming along. I don't really mind traveling by myself, but it's nice to have someone to share the experiences with! It'll be awesome to see my brain twin again, it's been way too long...
Yes, my bag is packed and I'm ready to go! But first I have one more day of work ahead of me.
So London, beware because I'm coming your way!

Long weekends

What made me happy today? it's weekend, and a three day weekend at that!
Who doesn't love long weekends? You have an extra day to do stuff. And no work on Monday! What's not to like? April 1st is a Bank holiday here, and no, it's no joke!
As it's Easter this weekend I'll be driving around quite a bit to visit family. And I don't mind one bit :-) Gives me a chance to practice my driving.
So enjoy your long weekend and stay safe!

Bring it, world!

What made me happy today? Feeling so ready to take on the world!
Let's be honest here for a second: nobody likes Monday. I mean, you just had two days off from work; you got to sleep in and stay up late. And if your weekend was anything like mine, it was an awesome one :-)
And then, at 5.30 in the morning the alarm goes off. It's pretty cold outside, with a chilly wind and snow. So I bundled up and walked to the station to get on the bus. Which, of course, was late (snow in Belgium). When I got to work and opened my emails, I found out that somewhere something went pretty wrong and I had to fix it. Which basically meant 4 - 5 hours of re-work. I could have gotten angry or sad about it; I could have complained or I could have let my head hang. Instead I decided to put on my big girl panties and boots :-) and I got a cup of coffee. After which I started working on the problem. And turns out it wasn't that much of a mess at all! Success!
That basically made me feel ready to take on the world. Well, at least ready to give Peter and Dilbert a swift kick in the behind. Which I totally did! Amazing for a Monday :-)

Friday

What made me happy today? It's finally Friday!
I've had a long, hard week at work. So this week I'm extra happy about the fact that it's Friday :-)
It's the best day of the week. The weekend is still ahead of you. You don't have to go to work the following morning, if you're lucky. Having worked as a nurse for 4.5 years, I know what it's like to have to get up to go to work on a Saturday morning. Not much fun. So since I changed jobs over a year a go, I now know the joys of having a full weekend.
Plus, Friday usually means friends, pizza and games for me. A great way to start of the weekend, wouldn't you say?
Have a great day and a fantastic weekend!
