Last week on Instagram stories I asked what posts followers would like to see on the blog and I got this suggestion from Dannii (A Beautiful Thing). I have written similar posts before – What I Do In a Day – but this time I decided to share what I got up to during my days off from work and actually share two days rather than one. Nothing overly exciting happened, I am mostly a homebody but it is an accurate representation of how I spend some of my time.
Friday 17/08/18:
7:02 am: Wake up and first scroll through social media.
7:47 am: Feed Halo and take daily medication.

10:23 am: Breakfast; Toffee Nut Latte (in my favourite cat cup) and a banana.
10:30 am: Second scroll through social media, catching up on Instagram stories this time.
11:06 am: Empty dishwasher.
11:30 am: Get dressed. OOTD is a cream jumper and black leggings.
11:38 am: Trying to figure out whether Deja Vu by xoBeauty is too beige for my skin tone. (I decided to keep the lipstick).

How do you like to spend your days off? Do you plan things or catch up on chores or a mixture of both?

Your cat mug is so so cute!
I find these posts fascinating to see what people get up to!
Also that lipstick looks like a lovely shade!

It’s a very cute mug! I’d love to see one of these posts on your blog too 😂
The lipstick looks nice with no makeup, I’ll have to wear it properly with a Smokey eye or something x

Love these kinds of posts. 🙂 The garlic bread looks yummy. On my days off, I’d prefer to do nothing but sometimes have to do errands & chores, ya know?

Certain weeks during my days off I have a few errands to run too. I do like to actually relax if I can, I don’t mind my own company 🙂 Thanks for reading!

I too have anxiety while driving – i once cried during my lesson which was quite embarrassing to say the least 🙈i’m sure one day it’ll get easier for the both of us 😊 i typically spend my days off watching netflix (i suppose that’s more of an every day sorta thing…) & a mix of both catch up & planning xx

I’ve cried too but my mum tries to reassure me and encourages me to keep going. If I had a lesson with a proper instructor they’d think I was insane haha. I’m sure it will get easier. Are you learning to drive or have you already passed the tests? I can see how Netflix is easy to get distracted by 😛

After quite a few years, I’m still learning to drive 🙈I’m kinda embarrassed as to how long it’s taking me to pass my test, but I suppose everyone learns at their own pace ☺️

This was such a fun post to read! 💓I’m currently listening to Sweetener! My favorite song on the album is Goodnight n Go. What’s yours? 😊Also, I love chill days when I’m off of work! Drinking iced coffee and reading is my favorite chill day activity. I gotta catch up on some laundry this Friday though hehe! x

My favourites so far are God Is a Woman, No More Tears Left To Cry and Breathin’ – I need to listen to the album again 🙂 I have the best plans to spend all day reading but other things seem to get in the way 😔

Aww thanks for reading! I’m a mix between planning and relaxing, I don’t always go somewhere on my days off and it’s nice to have days at home x
