Each weekend I’m going to write a post about little things I’ve enjoyed doing or reading throughout the week. They may include photos, like this post does, links to other posts I’ve enjoyed reading and other things I have found interesting!
So, this week I have:
1) enjoyed playing some Mozart on the piano
2,3,4) enjoyed looking and appreciating the roses in our garden
5) enjoying smelling the fragrance of this candle whilst it burns in the kitchen.
As part of my goals for 2014 (see here) I’m trying to do more things for me. Playing the piano is something that I love to do but often don’t get to do during the week due to time constraints. I’ve really enjoyed playing some Mozart this week – the piece there is part of the Sonata in C which I’m learning the third movement of.
5 blog posts I’ve enjoyed reading this week:
1) This post by Mr Money Mustache on giving yourself the gift of not worrying about money.
2) This post by Dividend Mantra on how dividends are a return of your capitol and a return on your capitol.
3) This post by Young House Love on their home office make over.
4) This post by Michelle of Making Sense of Cents about money advice for newlyweds.
5) This post by Girl Counting Pennies on her April and May spends – I like to see how other people budget their money.

I love the little things- it’s so important to take the time to appreciate them. I’ve been very much enjoying the roses in the park by my apartment this week. I pass them every time I go for a run and they are unwaveringly spectacular.
Little things are so important 🙂 they make the hard days worth it!
I used to play piano and clarinet for many years but I stopped a few years ago. I am thinking of learning a new instrument but I haven’t decided which one yet. I hope you enjoy the rest of your day.
I want to learn the violin but keep putting it off – not sure why 🙂
Nicola,
Thanks for the shout! I appreciate you sharing the message.
I also enjoyed that MMM post. Good stuff there.
Hope you had a great weekend.
Best wishes.
Beautiful roses, Nicola. And I love candles too. I always have one burning. It just relaxes me. It’s great that you’re making sure you get in some “me” time. We all need and deserve some down time.
Thanks – I’m not great at gardening but the roses are lovely at the moment 🙂
