Lazy Day

I love spending time with Dave (which I'm sure you are glad to hear).  We headed in to the main city centre this morning to hang out and wander round a wee bit.  Nothing particularly exciting happened, had lunch at Starbucks, picked up a new dress in Primark, chillaxed with my husband :-)  I want to make the most of these days that we both have free, before jobs and training kick off again and we loose this freedom we enjoy at the moment.  It is all about getting ready for the next step of our lives, but not wishing away the current one either.

Romans 8:28
And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them.

Anyways, next on my plan for the day is a little bit of craft stuff.  I need to check my sowing machine is functioning and maybe start a new project :-). 

I also need to get on with writing up my personal statement for my university application. 

Finally, it is Glee night! So I'll be heading over to the girls house when they get back from choir, Yippieee!

Glee!

The call of 'GLEE!' is often heard about 830 on Monday night, both in my house (only by me, however) and at Fran and Em's, where the viewing of said show always occurs. 

There is something about this show, it is cheesy as heck, but it knows it to that's ok.  And it has a go at being all inclusive, though it doesn't always managing to avoid stereotypes and clichés (in the bad way).  But, it is simply Joyful.  Even when Sue is being the biggest pain she can, it is done to produce humour as well as invoke the hostility intended by the character.  The song's, though pilfered, are perfectly chosen for each character at their point in the storyline.  Yes, there are random songs included too, but that is the nature of performing arts.

All in all, I hope 'GLEE!' will continue to be exclaimed for a while yet, as heading over to the girls, bottle of wine in hand, ready to watch the show, is usually one of my favourite times of the week.
