Happy Monday #50

Good morning & Happy Monday 🙂  I hope you all had an awesome weekend!

If you’re in the Northern Hemisphere, I hope you enjoyed the eclipse watching on Friday.  Rocky and I spent a good few hours out the garden watching… well, I watched – he sniffed around and played with the ants.

I did take a few photos for you, but I’m afraid they’re not too impressive.  Wonderful horizontal beams of light though, don’t you think?

If you look closely, you can see the actual eclipse in the small reflection, slightly to the lower right of the sun: read more

Happy Monday #49

Good morning & Happy Monday 🙂

This week is the week of the eclipse (at least in the Northern Hemisphere).  Come 09:27 on Friday, I shall be sat on a bench in my local country park, ready and waiting for the 87% partial eclipse.

I’m toying with the idea of buying special viewing glasses, but as I just mentioned to the infamous Mr Shaps, I might just fashion a viewing device out of an old cardboard box, Quality Street wrappers and a cookie cutter in the shape of a Christmas tree.  Innovative and swish! read more

Happy Monday #48

 
Good morning!  And a very happy Monday to you 🙂
 
At 7am this morning, I emerged from a wonderfully quiet weekend, armed and ready to take on the world!  Or so I thought.  It turns out that my work plans have had to take a backseat for a few hours, as I take time out to…
 
Babysit these guys!

How cute are they?!  Introducing “the twins”… the week old puppies of my parent’s Fox Terrier:

Cute little things aren’t they?  Though, as you can imagine, Rocky wasn’t best pleased when I told him he had new cousins:

I guess he’s already thinking about the impact his cousins will have on his Christmas presents from grandma & grandpa 😉

Happy Monday #47

Well, it’s the Monday after the week of “The Dress” (blue & black or white & gold?  Let me know!) and life is starting to get back to normal.  I suppose you could say it’s week 1 AD… After the Dress.

Burrum bum… I’m here until Thursday folks.  Try the steak!

So, what kind of Monday are you having?  Where I am, the sun is shining and the sky is blue.  Happy days!

But it’s not a Happy Monday for everyone.  In fact, it’s amazing how many people I know have been dreading today all weekend.  Dreading it because they don’t want to go back to work, don’t like their jobs or don’t enjoy what they do. read more

Happy Monday #46

Good morning!
 
I hope you all had an excellent weekend and are raring to go forth and be awesome this week.
 
I won’t bore you today with tales of my weekend, but suffice to say me and the dog went walking again.  This time I took a photograph for you.  It’s a tad dark, but I hope you like it:

This week I’m sharing an awesome video by one of America’s most affluent businessmen, Art Williams.

  • If you’re lacking motivation this morning, you need to listen to this speech.
  • If you aren’t happy with what you’re going to be doing for a living this week, you need to listen to this speech.
  • If you need to change your approach or strengthen your focus, you need to listen to this speech.

(I think we can all agree that I think everyone needs to listen to this speech 😉 )
 

 
 
This week, don’t bask in “almost”.  Be a winner… and just do it.
