Everyday's a holiday!

"I have had a holiday, and I'd like to take it up professionally." I love this quote from Kylie Minogue. I'm sure I'm not the only one thinking right now "I wish tomorrow was a public holiday". Well the thing is every day's a holiday (well maybe not a public holiday where you take time off work/school and faff).

There's always a reason to celebrate a new day. Not just because you are thankful for the gift of life or thankful for finding a random N1,000 note in your pocket when you are down to your last Kobo (God is good o!) or finding that Kit Kat bar!

Missing Kit-Kat situation a work. *sigh

If you follow me (or my blog on twitter), you'll see that everyday I tweet about what holiday, celebration or season that day is.

Today is International Day of Families 2013. @unicefafrica @un #UN #Family

Some of these holidays are so random that when I tweet about it, I get replies like "C'mon" "Princess seriously" "You've started" "Madame today is". Well I don't make these holidays up. Don't believe me, Google them!

Today is Chocolate Chip Day! Yum! #FoodiesUnite #ChocolateChip

The thing I love about finding out what makes today special even if it's not a stay at home holiday is that the meaning and most times the randomness of the day actually makes you smile and quite cheerful during the day. I've decided to put a side tab on my blog telling you what today/everyday is!

Happy Straw Hat Day Folks! What's your favourite holiday?

As a Sun-lover, of course I love straw hats!

Love,

I'm Back!

Hi beautiful people!

How’s everyone been?

Haven’t blogged in a few weeks. And I do feel bad about it. I’ve been writing though, but not blogging. See my excuses below :-) :

1. I've been busy. Aren't we all?? Well I’m working towards a promotion (and a raise).

I work HARD

2. I went away on holiday (again). Really needed to get away. 

3. Been lost in thought. Busy planning the future. You know how you make plans and you are so sure everything would go your way . . . *sigh. But other things you didn’t plan for happen? Well I'm dealing with that.

Sometimes I feel like no one comes here or reads my blog, but in the last 3weeks, I’ve had nine people I never thought would read my blog ask me “When’s your next post?” “Why haven’t you blogged?” Thanks for reading and proving me wrong!

I Princess Iré promise to blog at least once a week.

Have a great week everyone!
