What are you looking for?

Is there a public holiday for Ascension in your part of the world? ๐ŸŒ๐ŸŒ๐ŸŒ Denmark is closed for the Kristi Himmelfart (Ascension) holiday tomorrow, Thursday, so I'm running a couple of errands in the city (my Flylady "Errand Day") then a quick romantic dinner ร  deux with hubby in Grรฅbrรธdre Torv square ๐Ÿฅ—๐Ÿ˜ Then we have tickets ๐ŸŽŸ for the brilliant John Cooper Clarke, punk poet! ๐Ÿ•ด Last time I saw him live was in Scotland, when I was about 19 years old, I'm 54 now ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ฐ Enjoy your evening! And remember to plan some fun for yourself and your family (I organise my fun as part of my Flylady "Plan and Play" focus) ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ธโ˜€๏ธ๐ŸŒฆ๐ŸŒˆ OK, get your coats on, raincoats, bring your brolly, sunhats and suncream! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜‚ I'm bringing you with me for a full day in Reykjavik, taking you around all the sights, lunch, dinner, jazz in a bookstore...and it's gonna take less than 9 minutes! ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿคฉ Have you ever visited Iceland? Is it on your list? ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ธ๐ŸŽฅ You can see today's video by tapping on my Instagram Stories, use the link in my Bio or here ๐ŸŽฅ https://youtu.be/ZnF5Arc2EaM Do you exercise whatever the weather? ๐ŸŒฆโ˜ƒ๏ธ๐Ÿ”ฅ We do! As we say here in Denmark, there's no such thing as bad weather only bad clothing! ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ฐ ...but, yes, sunshine certainly helps! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜‚โ˜€๏ธ Photos from Monday's after-work bikeride/skinnydip seaswim plus this morning's bike/swim with my Besties! ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿšฒ๐Ÿšฒ๐Ÿšฒ๐ŸŠโ€โ™€๏ธ๐ŸŠโ€โ™€๏ธ๐ŸŠโ€โ™€๏ธโš“๏ธ๐Ÿคฉ There's always a cute "hund" (dog) around ๐Ÿ•๐Ÿ˜ Hot cups of tea in our bone china teacups (we transport them in tupperware  boxes for protection) โ˜•๏ธ ๐Ÿซ– Every day is the special occasion! Another one of our mantras... ๐Ÿฅณ Sea 13c/55f, air around the same ๐Ÿšฒl๐ŸŒŠ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ฐ #whatsfordinnertonight at your place and who's cooking? ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿก Jambalaya (with chorizo, chicken and prawns)! ๐Ÿฅ˜๐Ÿค๐ŸŒถ๐Ÿ‹Our (22 year old) son is here with us for a few days and he's a great home cook ๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿณ ...I've taught him well! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜… We divided the work: he's cooking the Jambalaya and I've set the table for dinner and am doing the dishes ๐Ÿคฉ๐Ÿ•ฏ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿฝ๐Ÿฝ ๐Ÿ’ฆ In other news, I plan my menus on Tuesdays (part of Flylady "Plan and Play"). Menu planning reduces food waste, saves mindless buying and stops the dreaded daily stress of wondering what's for dinner! ๐Ÿ˜… Use up what you have before you buy more! ๐Ÿง€๐Ÿฅฆ๐Ÿ† You can see what we're eating this week ("one pot pasta", moussaka, etc) along with recipes, tips and links on my blog DianeDenmark.com ๐Ÿฅฆ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ Or use the link in my Bio, by tapping on my Instagram Stories, or here ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿคฉ Happy Monday! Anyone need a pom pom shake from me today?! ๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽ‰ Or inspiration to clean and declutter? In today's YouTube video we're working together for just 15 MINUTES, old school style in real time, in Flylady Zone 4, the bedroom! ๐Ÿ› I'm cleaning the basics and windows ๐Ÿ’ฆ and decluttering jewellery and other items. Go me! ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ“ฟ Who's joining me for some hygge? ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿ•ฏ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿ˜ƒ Off we go...rah, rah, rah and skoosh, skoosh! ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿ’จ You can watch the video by tapping on my Instagram Stories, use the link in my Bio or here โžก๏ธโžก๏ธโžก๏ธ https://youtu.be/i_Kdy2trMaE ๐ŸŽฅ Who's doing their Routines today? โœ…๏ธโœ…๏ธโœ…๏ธ Woo hoo, it's Sunday and my Evening Routine is done! ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽ‰ I do my Routines every single day of the week because they are LESS work and LESS stress than not doing them! ๐Ÿ˜‰๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ˜ Kitchen closed, fresh teatowel and handtowel out (another new teatowel from our visit to Iceland...this one is puffins, their national bird! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ธ Teatowels make a great clutter-free souvenir). Fresh blooms from the garden - tonight is lily of the valley, so toxic but such a heavenly scent - and candles, selvfรธlgelig, for our Danish hygge! ๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒฟ๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ•ฏ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ฐ Coffeemaker and breakfast table set up โ˜•๏ธ๐Ÿฅฃ My outfit is ready and hanging on the back of our bedroom door. ๐Ÿ‘•๐Ÿ‘–๐Ÿ“ฟ๐Ÿ’„ Enjoy your evening wherever you are in the galaxy! ๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿš€๐Ÿš€๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿš€ What does your Sunday look like? ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿคฉ Happy Sunday from was grey but now sunny Copenhagen! โ˜€๏ธ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ฐ Sunday is my "rest and recharge" day. Did my usual Morning Routine (as I do every day of the week - stops the overwhelm and only takes a few minutes to cover the basics). Woo hoo! ๐Ÿฅณ ๐Ÿก  Did a short 20 minute run in the park before lunch ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿ’จ The rhododendron in our garden are about to burst into bloom! ๐Ÿก๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐ŸŒธ Hubby is away on business but our son is visiting for a few days (our daughter was here last week), so never a dull moment! ๐Ÿ˜… Dinner was a rare takeaway (I usually cook 6/7 days a week and we go out to a restaurant about once a month). My son and I are the only two in the family who like sushi so that's what we ordered and we ate it outside in the garden - yum! ๐Ÿฃ๐Ÿฃ๐Ÿฃ๐Ÿ˜ What's your plan for today? Have a super Sunday! ๐Ÿ’– Any nice plans for today? Dog walking, working on projects, spending time with family? ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿ˜ƒโ˜€๏ธ Saturday mornings for me = sea swimming! โš“๏ธ Oh, what a wonderful morning with my Copenhagen Bluetits Chill Swimmers group! ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿฆ Nothing better than welcoming a new member to our Copenhagen Bluetit flock - and, of course, the ceremony of presenting them with a special Bluetits badge/pin to mark that very special first swim! So much joy and laughter! ๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐ŸŒŠ๐ŸŠโ€โ™€๏ธ And I brought some breakfast for us, my overnight rolls (see my YouTube channel for the recipe)๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿฅ–๐Ÿฏ Sea 13c/55f, air 9c/48f ๐ŸŒŠ๐Ÿ‡ฉ๐Ÿ‡ฐ Love this group of ladies, always a mood booster! ๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ’™๐Ÿ’™ Have a super Saturday wherever you are in the galaxy! ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿคฉ ๐Ÿ’ฆ๐Ÿ˜ No more bathroom horror! We've been concentrating our efforts in Flylady Zone 3 this week (the bathroom plus one other room) for cleaning and decluttering ๐Ÿšฝ๐Ÿšฟ๐Ÿ›€โฑ (See my YouTube video from this week for a 15 minute "clean with me" video and tips on hygge and self-care in this zone: https://youtu.be/_HW7FaXB40s ) ๐Ÿ‘‹๐Ÿคฉ๐ŸŽฅ We're not trying to clean ALL the things or crossing everything off the list! We are keeping our homes tidy and cosy. No marathon cleaning sessions - spend 5 minutes when you are already in there, showering/brushing your teeth/when the kids are in the bath ๐Ÿ›€๐ŸŒฟ Set that timer and do one thing! ๐Ÿคฉโฑ Remember to check your stocks of toilet paper, toothpaste, shampoo etc and add to your Errand Day list ๐Ÿงป๐Ÿงป๐Ÿงด My "other room" this week has been our garden shed as everything is blooming here right now ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒธ๐Ÿก๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐ŸŒพ (You could also choose your sewing space, laundry area, guest bedroom) ๐Ÿก I did a quick sweep ๐Ÿงน and found some items to declutter: kids' pennyboards and a bike basket. They have already gone to new kids who will use and love them! Woo hoo! ๐Ÿ›น๐Ÿ›น๐Ÿ‘ฆ๐Ÿ‘ง๐Ÿ˜ A few minutes here and there all adds up! ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐ŸŽ‰ Go do something right now, I will be cheering you on with my pom poms! ๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽ‰๐ŸŽ‰ Rah, rah, rah! ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿ’–
