This post is part of Lexa Cain's bloghop, Celebrate the Small Things (Lexa has just taken it over from VikLit who has hosted it for the last 2 years). Head on over there to join up!
So, what am I celebrating this week?
Can I say that it's over? It's been a long, hard week and I'm very glad it's over. I've been so busy my revising hasn't been going as smoothly as I wanted it to (although I'm still on track in terms of my timing). I'm just feeling a little exhausted. Which isn't great since next week is the last week of school before the kids go on vacation for two weeks.
But for now, I'm celebrating the fact I get two days off work. My oldest son turned 11 on Tuesday and tomorrow we're having his party at the swimming pool. Fingers crossed I can get through the afternoon with all 10 kids un-drowned!
One of our films won at the Venice Film Festival at the beginning of the week, so today we had a fantastic, hour-long Italian lunch at work. Everyone brought amazing food and even now, at almost 9pm, I'm still feeling stuffed. It was a really nice way to end a crazy week, even if we did all have to go back to our desks and finish up the day afterward. I think we were all a little happier than before lunch though, thanks to a rather potent tiramisu!
What are you celebrating this week?
Tiramisu - yum (hiccup) :)

Congrats on your winning film! Good luck with the birthday party! I hope you get some time in there somewhere to relax and catch up with your revising. Happy Friday!
ReplyDeleteone of your films won? Which one? When can we see it? I am so happy for you, and yes you can be grateful for the week to be over, I can relate to that feeling - blessings!
ReplyDeleteYay a pool party! Plus some days off! That sounds great. And congrats on the winning film. :)
ReplyDeleteYou're doing so well with your editing, so that's a definite reason to celebrate:) Hope the birthday party went well. And congrats on the films winning.
ReplyDeleteThat must be a special feeling, to have your film win at the Venice Film Festival.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday to your son! And congrats on the film winning! Even if the week was a monster, doesn't sound like it was all bad...not at all. And that Italian food would be simply awesome. What a way to end a week!

ReplyDeleteIt's perfectly fine to celebrate seeing the back of a tough week. Next week will be SO much better. :-)
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean - last week felt like a long one for me too! Hope this week is a better one and you manage to nail the chapter edits.
ReplyDeleteYay for the film winning and for great Italian food! I read your recent post too, so good luck with the revisions! Weird about the banned book. What is wrong with people? They get weirder and less tolerant daily.
