2 Days 45 minutes

So there are only 2 days and 45 minutes left at WDR for me. Then Friday will be my first day at my new job! I am nervous and it doesn’t even feel real at the moment!

I have a few things. In this post but I will start with my weekend. Gutted it’s over and went past at around 200mph. Usually when you have a full pack in weekend it goes to quickly and you are left at the end of it on Sunday evening tucking yourself up into bed going, HUH? Where did the weekend go, and that is exactly what happened.

I picked Matt up as usual on Friday and we headed home, I had a couple of bits and pieces to do like hanging up washing etc, then we packed our bags and headed off in the car to Nottingham. I planned o leaving at 7 to be there by 10pm, but in a Matt and Toria style we left around 7:30pm. We stopped off for mccy d’s to try the festive menu, didn’t rate it much but LOVED the festive pie been waiting 2 years for them to bring that back! It was a long drive and was a bit much after being so tired all day and being at work but it was worth it!

I got to spend the whole weekend with my best friend who I never really see anymore :(

Her wife Sammi has to work a lot of the weekend which sucked balls, but we got to go for dinner with her and spend some time with her on Saturday afternoon and evening! Plus it meant Matt and Sammi didn’t get dragged through Primark! We were in there for a very long time I got a lovely scarf and a new jumper that was in the sale. I didn’t realise at the time and when I got to the front to pay it was a nice surprise. I will have to put up some pictures it’s a lovely jumper, purple with gold thread running through it!

So Saturday we got up had breakfast went into the town centre and did a bit of shopping. I would of liked to look round more but it was unbearably busy so we didn’t do too many shops. Then we stopped off for a drink and that’s where we meet up with Sammi and then we did Primark and then New look (got a lovely leather look skirt for £10) and then headed to Annie’s burger shack.

Annie’s burger shack is pretty cool we went there for Laura’s hen do. I didn’t rate it that highly last time and I think that’s cause I played it safe with a bacon and cheese burger, this time I got something different and adventurous, and although it burnt my face off it was delicious! I am getting better with hot spicy food :D

Then we stopped off at the orange tree and had a cocktail which was a delicious as I remember from laura’s hen do and then headed home where we watched the first ep of The Walking Dead which was really good! I wanted to watch more. Sunday much to my dismay Sammi had to go to work by midday so me Laura and Matt headed off to a pub and had REALLY CHEAP REALLY YUMMY lunch! And then it was time to leave :(

I really enjoyed spending the weekend with Laura, although it reminds me how much I miss her. I don’t have many loyal close friends in my life so it sucks balls that her and Sammi live so damn far away! She is down on Monday so fingers crossed we might be able to go for a drink but if not it might not be until March again as I need to talk her into going to get a photo with the cast from Red Dwarf. 

The next thing I guess is illustration wise. I have finished my avatar illustration, created a new snowflake wallpaper and updated my cover page on my website, blog and facebook page for Me Toria Designs.

So I have been more productive on the design side, and it’s given me some motivation so get 2-3 Christmas ones done this weekend!

So I am pretty pleased with those. I hope to update next week with more designs done and exciting news on my new job! :D
