What I did this weekend

  • Had a great night out on Friday with colleagues
  • Got up too early on Saturday
  • Went to Portobello Market for the first time!
  • Spent Saturday with five of my closest friends
  • Tried a mint julep, realised they are disgusting, never again, unless I'm desperate
  • Talked, a lot
  • Said goodbye to J for a week and a half
  • Went to church for the first time in months
  • Saw a friend who I haven't seen for ages and caught up properly with her
All in all, a great weekend. And my first in London for a long time, which I loved! What did you do, anything exciting? And any tips for sleeping while your other half is away? I struggled last night... Even with my monkeys keeping me company.

I always enjoy going to bed with a cup of tea & Vogue when Husband is away.

I listen to a book on CD or ipod (nothing too gripping) and fall asleep to that...Good luck! Plus, cuddle my dog!
PS - John Bell & Croydon haven't got your tweezers, although they have loads!

Rachel - Good idea, I found Sex & the city and a cup of tea did the same trick last night.

Everybody says don't - I like listening to the radio before sleep, tis a good point. And if only I had a dog... And thanks for looking on the tweezers!

Kylli - Sure will :)

Wear one of his T.shirts to bed, preferably already worn.

Westendmum - that is such a good suggestion! Thanks. I shall trial it tonight.
