In my life this week…
Center Parcs
This Monday I headed off to
Suffolk with my family. We had booked to go for a little holiday to Elveden
Center Parcs. We actually went to the same place last year, and loved it so
much we decided to go back. It was so lovely to get away for a few days and
spend time with my extended family (various partners also came along). Life
hasn’t been particularly easy recently, and this was a chance to have a change
of scene and get away from reality a bit. We consumed numerous cocktails, went
bowling, played Crazy Golf and chilled out in the hot tub. The holiday went way
too quickly (isn’t it always the way?!) and we were heading back home before we
knew it. We’re already thinking of booking to go to a different Center Parcs
next summer!
Massage
While we were away at
Center Parcs, a few of us booked to go to the Aqua Sana Spa for various
treatments. My brothers and their girlfriends had couples treatments, while I
chose an Elemis Detox Massage, which is said to help boost circulation, lymphatic
drainage and digestion. At home I have a traditional Swedish massage every six
weeks, so I wanted to try something a little different, which this definitely
was! I wouldn’t say it was your typical relaxing massage, as it’s not really
designed to relax you. But I certainly felt invigorated after, and the facial
made my skin feel so soft and zingy!

Home Sweet Home
As lovely as it was to get
away for a few days, I felt myself feeling ready to get back to my own bed and
routine. I’m definitely one for feeling comfortable in my routine, and I
sometimes struggle when things change, so I found myself feeling a bit anxious
on holiday. I also really missed our dogs and cats, so it was lovely to get
back to see them. Jaffa and Alfie had struggled to settle without us, whereas
Xena and Freddie had been lapping up the extra attention! I can’t believe we’re
already at the end of the summer holidays and I’m meant to be starting college
on Tuesday. Seriously, where has the time gone?!
What has grabbed your attention this
week? I love hearing about people’s new discoveries and you may end up sharing
something that makes it onto my list next week!
