Song writing, perfume, books and holidays.

Today has been my day off, and whilst the weather has been decidedly dodgy for June, I've stayed inside for most of today. I have however played guitar a lot, I've had to stop cos my fingers were complaining! 
I've written a new song today, well the melody and the structure that is, I wrote the words a long time ago. I can't write words right now, it's so frustrating, everything that comes out I'm not happy with. Writers block maybe? However I'm very pleased with what I have written today anyway. 
I revived an old old old song of mine too, which is cool cos I'd forgotten about it!
The rest of last week was fun too, I met up with an old college friend, always a good giggle. I sang a couple of songs with my friend at open mic night - i hope to do more of that soon.
I also bought a new perfume - which I LOVE! I've been wearing Angel by Theirry Mugler for about 3 years and I felt it was time for a change, so I've now got the Jimmy Choo perfume, it's lovely, the girl in the shop picked it out first for me - very clever lady! She knew what I would like straight away. I like how smells can take you back to a certain time or place, or remind you of a certain person. Wearing a nice perfume makes you feel good.
I got 3 new books this week too.... Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen, When God was a Rabbit by Sarah Winman, and The Girl Who Played with Fire by Stieg Larsson. I've started Water for Elephants, and I'm sucked in already - love it when that happens.
I booked a short holiday with my sister this week too, so excited about getting away for a few days and getting some sun!! :-)
All in all it's been rather a good week, and here's to another one.
Love and good vibes
