2013 resolutions

After a brilliant New Year break in Wales with my uni mates (more on that another day) I’m ready to hit 2013 with some new & some tweaked resolutions. I don’t know about you but I’m not keen on the sound of 2013, partly cos so much good happened for me in 2012 & I didn’t want it to end but also cos the ‘13’ sounds a bit ominous, not that I’m superstitious about it, I’d just like to hibernate for the year & wake up in 2014 which sounds much friendlier!

Anyways enough random ramblings & onto the resolutions: 

~ FEEL GOOD ABOUT MYSELF
I’m not going to do the typical lose weight cos it never happens, so this year I’m going to focus on feeling good overall, whether it’s spending a bit more time over my hair, or making sure I put on the right coat to match my outfit & not just grabbing the closest one as I rush out the door, or wearing clothes that make me feel good & not just scruffy. It might even result in losing a bit of the Chrimbo podge but when that’s not the end target I’ll probably reach it easier.

~ ALWAYS UNPACK WHEN I GET BACK
Whether it’s coming in from work, a weekend away or holiday I have a terrible habit of leaving suitcases unpacked or things in piles. I need to make sure I put everything away then it doesn’t build up into a mountain down by my side of the bed. It only takes a couple more minutes & it’s no big deal, so I need to……

~ STOP BEING LAZY
I can be such a slob at times, everyone is I’m sure, but I do think I’m a bit more slobby than others!

~ WATCH A NEW (old) FILM 2/3 TIMES A MONTH
It’s shocking how many classic movies I’ve not seen. I’d like to make sure Adam & I take more time to watch movies in our spare room & relax together.

~ PAY OFF SNEAKY BIT ON CREDIT CARD & KEEP IT OFF FOR GOOD!
I managed to pay off my card at the start of the year but a bit more has crept back on so I’ve made sure I’ve added the last bit to this rule & hopefully I won’t need to add this to 2014’s list!

~ GO TO BED BEFORE 11:30pm ON WEEKDAYS
I’ve even set an alarm on my phone & everything to make sure I go to bed earlier!

~ FINALLY CHANGE MY BLOG NAME
To The Happy Little World of MRS KtP!

Good luck for your resolutions whatever they may be!

Great ideas and good luck with them. I hope to write fewer letters of complaint but there again if people did their jobs properly in the first place I wouldnt have to write them.

Ladies what #ldnlunch

After a few deep breaths I plucked up the courage to walk into the Jetlag bar in Fitzrovia & meet some fellow blogging lovelies. I'd first heard about Ldnlunch On Eloise's blog . I'd always wanted to go to a blogger meet so I put my name down straight away. I was a bit nervous when I realised there were about 40 other girls going who's blogs were mainly about fashion, whereas mine is just random ramblings from inside my brain box but decided I'd still go seeing as I had nothing to lose! I arrived expecting to be early but there were already lots of people sitting down for drinks & food so I grabbed a drink & perched on a pooffe. I just ordered a bowl of chips (how adventurous!) but I did pick off the plates around me (yoink! Thanks Lois! ). There were mixed responses to the rather tentacle-y calamari (I have some hilarious snaps of Jazzy eating the tentacles but I'm here to make friends not enemies so those will be shared between the 2 of us &am

Londoners pt1

Image
For Chrimbo Adam gave me a book called "Londoners. The days & nights of London now - as told by those who love it, hate it, live it, left it & long for it" by Craig Taylor. After reading the introduction & before reading any more I decided I'd think about what London & being a Londoner means to me. Even though I picked out bullet points I still got a bit carried away so I'll spread it over a few posts so here goes part 1, I'll start with the one thing that I think of straight away when someone says London to me: ~ the tube is a huge part of London life. It's about sitting on a train for an hour & not knowing what any one's face looks like only their shoes, panic attacks when the train gets stuck in a tunnel without explanation, keeping left, standing on the right spot on a platform so you'll be in front of the doors when they open & also so when you get off you'll be at the exit to the station - even if that exit says no ent

T-minus 6months / 184days!

Eeep! 6months today I'll be just about to walk down the aisle to see the man I'm going to marry! AAAAARRRRGGGHHH!I'm so ridiculously excited I'm not sure I can bottle it up! Valentines day marked 200 days till our wedding & mum made us a countdown using tape measures measuring 100cm each. The plan was to cut off a cm each day as the countdown but she'd included little charms all down them of bags, shoes, guitars, etc & we didn't want to ruin it so we're colouring it in with a Sharpie instead! She's the best! :) thanks mum! Last night after work Adam & I met up at Waterloo to head home & it was all going as planned till we stopped at one station for about 20mins cos of a backlog due to a part suspension. There was nothing we could do to get on another line so we sat & waited, the train eventually left but then sat at the next station (Swiss Cottage) for another 20min & they didn't know when they'd set off again. We knew th
