Competitive spirit and looking out for ex-Spice Girls...
After a rare and lovely lie-in (hubby was looking hot with his bed-head) I started wrapping some presents listening to the White Lies - not surprised their album is in MySpace's top albums of 2009. I feel and usually on top of Christmas this year but then again last year I'd just had major surgery at this time… happy days… I'm feeling great.
It was lovely meeting up last night with my old friend who works incredibly long hours in the TV world with her partner. What was great to see that having just bought a house together and sorting out their first proper Christmas together they were really chilled out. Hubby and I found out that they've just got a table tennis table - we're going to take them on December 30 for a match. Watch out with me and ping-pong - brings out my competitive side. It should be a laugh because evidently they’re competitive over ping-pong too!
TODAY’S THOUGHT: there's nothing wrong with a little friendly competition. Where competition goes wrong is when you begin to see winning as the only good outcome. I do have a couple of highly competitive friends and they take things too seriously. Yup, go for your goal but don't let it be the be all and end all.
Can’t wait as we're dressing up tonight to go to the 19 Christmas party - wondering if any of the ex-Spice Girls will be there… when my daughter was about nine she absolutely loved the Spice Girls.
Have a great weekend, Pam X
