I've been rather busy today, hence my late post, but I thought I'd pop in and show my face. First of all, how can I do a post without mentioning the latest happy news about Prince William and Kate Middleton's engagement finally being official. I thought it was lovely that William proposed with his mother's engagement ring because he wanted her to be included. Awwww. What a lovely young man. I confess I've been something of a monarchist ever since I was little, but I can't give anyone a rational explanation why, so don't ask me!
Changing the subject totally, I thought I'd share this clip from a forthcoming Glee episode. You might have heard about it - it's Gwyneth Paltrow singing Cee-Lo's "Forget You". I love it. And my favourite line is at the beginning of the clip "what would you know about Cee-Lo? Cos you're like 40". (I don't know when this is out in the UK):
I'm actually trying to cut down on my TV watching, but I haven't been able to resist the wonderful "Turn Back Time - The High Street". The latest era was the 30s, which is one of my favourites, and it made riveting watching. I particularly like catching glimpses of the pretty blue shop "Nostalgia at No. 1" which is run by Nicky of Nostalgia at the Stone House. I've been reading her blog for ages, and it's thanks to her that I had my eye out for this programme. Rather than linking to iPlayer, I'll embed the first part of the first episode that someone has kindly put on Youtube so that my family abroad can catch up with it: unfortunately, BBC iPlayer doesn't let you watch programmes abroad which is really annoying! Here goes - enjoy:
It's way past my bedtime, so I'd better leave it there. I would, however, like to finish by saying I really feel like I've turned a corner recently, with the fatigue. As I said earlier, I had a busy afternoon and I came through it without feeling exhausted, just nicely tired as if I'd done a full day's work. Let's hope this is the home straight!
Right, if the girl next door could just stop her whooping and hollering I might get a good night's sleep... Well, at least the arguments seem to have stopped. Mustn't grumble. Nite all :)
