Things I'm Loving

I wholeheartedly believe that no matter what is happening in your life, there is always something you can be thankful for..no matter how simple it is.


This week I am Loving ........

This Guy ....



well it isn't my canary but it looks and sounds like him.  A few weeks ago we got this beautiful orange canary, we named him Sherbert. He's been fairly quiet but the last week he has been singing away, it is a beautiful sound and I am loving listening to him.

This Show ....



Buffy is my all time favourite TV show. I am a geek and I have all 7 seasons on DVD. I have been re-watching them all from season 1 and right now I am almost at the end of season 5.  Not sure what I'm going to do when it finishes ... what on earth will I watch!?!?!?!

These Books ....


My Aunt is a MASSIVE reader, she had hundreds of books in boxes and had decided it was time to get rid of them so I got first dibs! Sooo excited!  There was a book called The Alchemyst - The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel.  Of course being a MASSIVE Harry Potter fan I HAD to take that book. If anyone knows Harry, Nicholas Flamel played a pretty major part in the plot of the Philosophers Stone.  The Alchemyst has nothing to do with Harry Potter but I LOVE it just as much!!

The book series is called 'The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel' and they are by Michael Scott. The books have magic, mythical beings, hidden worlds, amazing creatures and fantastic storylines and I am LOVING them! There are 6 books and I have just finished reading book #2 and am just dying to start #3.
If you like fantasy you really need to read these!

 This Swap ....


I have sent off my Mug this morning to my recipient. I can't wait until she gets it and I sure hope she likes it!! I also can't wait to find out who got me!!

Mug Swap 2013


I have joined up with the NZ Blogger Mug Swap this month. It's pretty exciting!
Everyone send and receives a mug with goodies! I got my person last night and started shopping for her this morning. I really hope she likes what I get for her. I hope from getting to know her through her blog that I got the bits and pieces right. I hope that I give her a big smile and everytime she drinks from the mug I got her that she will smile.

I can't wait to find out who got me! I hope that there is enough info on my blog that she can figure out what I like! I'm not going to be easy and tell her in this blog post, I'm going to make her do some research hehehe.

This is soo much fun!!!

Things I'm Loving



Friends

This week I am LOVING my friends

One's I've known for longer than I want to remember because it makes me feel super old!


One's I have known only since Jason died and it feels like they have been my friends forever and brand spanking new ones



Oh I am also loving that we all got dressed up to drink alcoholic slushies out of cocktail glasses, can't get much classier than that!
