When the week begins with a messy house, rubbish weather, and news I should care about but don't (Gordon Brown reportedly has a bad temper shocker), it's time to get online and look at things I don't really need.
In another life I was an online shopping editor and I still enjoy finding the best the net has to offer. When the skies are grey, I head to great site Rockett St George. It's not pretty to look at but it sells some lovely things.
Then I swoon over Princess Pashley bikes which look lovely in blue.
A quick click session at Office Shoes to look at all the impractical shoes that I know longer wear.
And then it's off to John Lewis in search of a toaster. Can somebody tell me why it costs £175 for a machine that browns bread? The world has gone mad.
The start of the week does have one plus point, however bad your Monday is, there's always a reason to be Gleeful.
