What's goin' on?


(Kudos to you if you got the Marvin Gaye reference!)

I've had the busiest week in the world, and to top it all off, this morning I had the dreaded visit to the dentist.  Luckily it wasn't so bad this time, but we'll see how I'm feeling after the 3rd of December - I bet I won't be feeling so chirpy after that one! 

I was up really early this morning, so I got plenty of work done. This means that I have the luxury of taking a few hours off this afternoon! It feels unnatural to sit down, I feel like I should be running around doing something.

Given this fabulous window of opportunity, this is how I'm choosing to spend it:

 This candle is amazing! It smells absolutely gorgeous and the scent payoff is phenomenal. My whole house smells delicious.

 I feel you may all be begging to see a slight obsession of mine...

 Christmas tree lights are the ultimate in creating a cosy atmosphere

 Cuddles with little dusty, she's such a softie <3

 A nice glass of white wine

What are you all up to today? 
I hear we're in for a storm, it's incredibly windy - make sure you stay safe if you have bad weather near you.

The photos are lovely & cozy, your space seems like a relaxing & peaceful place where one can sip on wine & enjoy a delicious cup of wine & reflect on the beauty of life :)
