Retail Therapy

Everything is still awful but I've managed to be at least semi-productive this weekend. Gave my bedroom a good tidy yesterday which actually lifted my spirits a little once it was all done. Mess is more depressing than you might think. And during the clean I found the missing charger for my Kindle. I mean it was on the bookcase rather than in the mess on the floor but still :D

Babysitting for my nephew yesterday evening which was always an adventure. He was actually pretty well behaved this time. I mean he's never naughty or anything but he tends to get excited when I come to visit so he doesn't sleep. Even last night he was still awake when Ros and Ben got home at 10pm. He has this thing where after you say goodnight he gets ALL his toys and puts them in his bed. When I went up to check on him at 9:30 there was no space for him in the bed. He had about 30 stuffed toys, a few jigsaws, some lego and his CD player all in the bed.

Ros says this is just something he does and they're not sure why. He likes to tuck everything under his duvet like a hoarder.

So I took everything out of his bed and got him to settle down. He was just on the verge of falling asleep when Ros and Ben got home so of course that woke him up again. Ros sat with him for about 10 mins and eventually he drifted off.

In trip news I did a bit of shopping last night. The place that sells all the hockey merch was having a sale with up to 65% off and free shipping.

So, I bought a Kessel jersey for the Pens games were going to and an Ovechkin shirt for the Caps game we're going to.
