loving on FRIDAY around the blogosphere
Hope you all enjoyed your week and are ready for a happy weekend doing what you enjoy most. I have had an eventful week with lots of ups and downs as well as a few realisations in regards to where my future is heading. I love Friday's in the fact that the schooling week is over and I can enjoy activities with my daughters or just relax and read while they do homework. We also love watching and going to the Movies. What was the last movie you went to see or watched at home?

celebrity mumma JANUARY JONES
How precious is 10 month old Zander? January has remained mum on the identity of her 10-month-old son Xander‘s father, January says she feels “very lucky” to be a mom. The actress spoke to Mom.me about “not judging” her TV character Betty Draper and her best tip on becoming a better mother.
On Betty Draper’s influence on her as a mom: “Well, I certainly don’t take anything from Betty home. I have nothing in common with her when it comes to mothering. I don’t see it as a burden or irritation. I feel very lucky and I feel like it was something that I was meant to do. I’m at the right age and the right time in my life where it’s just so much fun. And I don’t think Betty sees the fun in that … I think she sees it as an inconvenience.”

9 ways to POLISH UP THE DAILY ROUTINE
“Life is not made up of minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, or years, but of moments. You must experience each one before you can appreciate it.” ―Sarah Breathnach
1. Grocery shopping – set one time a week to go shopping (having planned your meals for the week), do your best to shop at local markets and get to know the venders, making the experience a social encounter, not a robotic chore. Smell the fruit, thump the bread, taste the wine (if they offer this option) and enjoy a store, booth or market’s ambiance.
2. Breakfast – Wake up earlier and enjoy a simple, yet flavourful meal that will help you last until lunch. Read your favorite blogs (on your iPad) or peruse your local morning newspaper as you sip your first cup of caffeine.
3. Paying bills – Knowing you have adhered to your budget will make this process even more enjoyable, but each time you sit down, turn on your favorite music, pour a cup of tea, sit in a comfortable chair and gradually, yet proficiently pay your monthly bills and balance your cheque book.
4. Downtime – Love music? Love the nostalgic crackle of a turntable? Why not buy one and play your favourite crooners found on vinyl?
5. Daily Walk – Choose a route that is inspiring – whether it is out in nature or on the sidewalk through a beautiful neighborhood, choose a regular path that revs up your creative mind.
6. Laundry – Whenever you make a bed with clean sheets, take the time to iron the pillowcases, shams and duvet and spritz some lavender linen spray on the pillows to enhance a restful night’s slumber. (Make your own: mix 1 tsp lavender essential oil with 1/4 c. unflavored vodka, then add 3 1/2 cups of water, and pour into a spray bottle)
7. Kitchen Clean-up – Again, include the power of music or talk radio to make the task move along quicker and allow you to either sing along or dance, or learn something.
8. Cleaning House – Each time you clean your home, when complete, treat yourself and your abode to a fresh bouquet of flowers.
9. Beautify Your Work Space – If you have a regular job and a desk area or office, decorate or create a space that is welcoming and well-stocked. Bring in flowers or nature, have a radio or music handy if that is allowable, stash an afternoon snack in your top drawer and include a photo of someone you love on your desk top. In other words, make it inviting.
Thank you to Shannon from The Simply Luxurious Life for making the mundane so special.
