Hi there! You may have noticed I’ve been absent from the blogosphere this week. Or maybe thinking anyone would notice my absence is just wishful thinking? Yes, it’s definitely the latter. Nonetheless, I am going to tell you the reason for the absence that you didn’t even notice. I had to go to Frankfurt for a training course. It was all about banking/supervision, so not my favourite topic, but it ended up being quite interesting and (hopefully) useful. Obviously it was for work… I don’t go to finance seminars for fun! So I was away from Monday afternoon til late Wednesday evening then I had to spend yesterday evening tidying the flat, making the spare bed, etc. because we have visitors coming tomorrow – and Jan of course had no time to clean while I was away even though our friends are coming to see his choir concert! No, I am clearly not annoyed about this at all. Ahem. To be fair to him, he did also tidy last night, but if he’d done a bit on Tuesday and a bit on Wednesday we could have been finished by now. But enough talking about my boyfriend behind his back. On with the letters.
Dear tree by the balcony. I see your lovely yellow leaves already starting to turn brown. Stop it! There’ll be plenty of time for bare branches throughout the entire next four and a bit months!
Dear housework fairy. You seem to have got lost on the way to my place. If I put a candle in the window or something will you come and take over some of the cleaning?
Dear tea. Sorry I keep forgetting about you and making you really strong, then having to drink you lukewarm. It really isn’t fair, is it?
Dear weather. I would appreciate it if you could be nice for the weekend.
Right, that’s it. I’m feeling very uninspired today, but I didn’t want to completely ignore my blog so this measly collection of letters is the best I can do. Aahh… bring on the weekend. Only 8 hours to go…
Confuzzledom 
I leave my tea too long too then end up with lukewarm tea which is not so nice! Glad you found that training course interesting!
Lukewarm tea is so, so sad 😦
I noticed 😉 I have a few favourite bloggers saved into a favourites list on bloglovin and there aren’t many of them so I really miss them when they aren’t there! I need a housework fairy to visit here too!
Awww, it makes me happy that you noticed. You’re one of my favourite bloggers!
I didn’t notice, but that’s because I’m almost always reading people’s posts a few weeks after they go up. I am almost *never* caught up on my feeds! I’m a little jealous- I would love a work trip to Frankfurt! That hasn’t happened in about three years…
If it makes you feel any better I didn’t really get to see anything of Frankfurt 😉
i noticed though i have been away too so… i’m delayed! lol. i went away for a week last month and i came back to a slightly dirty house with dishes in the sink and i was like… for real?! haha. i do the same thing with my tea. i don’t think i will ever learn! lol
Haha, right? I come in and think “You could have at least done the dishes… there aren’t that many!”
Well I did notice that you hadn’t posted.. I often wonder, what’s the point of housework?
