Everyday emails to my pal about… everything!
Hey Friend, How are things? I am seriously considering putting the heating on, the temperature has dropped that much… But that consideration lasted for a second before being quickly discarded, because it’s only September and I refuse to turn up the heat until at least mid October. Yep, it’s all jumpers and fluffy socks in … Continue reading Saying Goodbye: A Parent’s Journey to University Send-Off
Hey Friend! How are you? According to the Met Office, Autumn officially began on the 1st September and the weather has happily agreed, flinging its rain and wind at us intermittently. And just when we think it’s ceased, up it starts again. Oh, England. We love you really. But such is the phenomena of September … Continue reading Summer Highlights for Autumn Days
Hey Friend! How’s it going? I’ve been back at work this week but I enjoyed the novelty of two weeks paid time off for the Easter break and wondered why I took so many years to work in a school. Previously, I’ve had to be content with a couple of days here, a couple there, … Continue reading No Wi-Fi? No Problem
Hey there! How goes it? The daffodils are out and the Magnolia blossoms are budding – Spring has sprung! The horrible stye has gone and my other eye has thankfully stopped twitching so, I feel somewhat normal again. I had my last day at my school this week and I’m feeling reflective. I am forty-six … Continue reading Embracing Quietness
Hey Friend! How’s it going? This morning the fog was so thick I could barely see the tree across the road, but the sun has since come out and burned all of that away. In fact, sitting in a sunny spot might make you forget it’s still March. I was thinking about switching to my … Continue reading Stressed? Me? Don’t be Silly…
Hey Friend! How are you? Is it still acceptable to say Happy New Year? Well, it’s still January so… Happy New Year! You’re not gonna believe this but I started writing a post weeks ago but every time I go back to finish it, it seems less and less relevant… What did I write about, … Continue reading Now Seems as Good a Time as Any…
Hey there! How are you? Well, here we are in February, January disappearing in a wintery blur. Although, it was quite disconcerting to see the buds of Magnolia in the middle of last month. I found myself praying for plants – ‘It’s too soon! The blossom will all get blown away by a returning cold … Continue reading Book Club, Anyone?
Hey Friend! Happy New Year! So is it ‘New Year, New You?’ Or is there some other non-committal mantra you’re following? 😊 I’m taking some time this week to set some goals with intention, which just means I’m making a plan to actually achieve them. Two I’ll share with you: Re-learning the saxophone (it’s been … Continue reading Resolutions or Goals…?
Hey! How are you? Sorry, I know it’s been a while since my last post. There was the job that turned out not to be the God-send I thought it was, but I’ll tell you about that another time. Mr E got his results from his radiotherapy – his PSA levels are neither higher or … Continue reading Insecure?
Hello there! How are you doing? I’ve heard multiple people complaining about the lack of summer sunshine here, in the UK. It was the same people complaining about the 30 degree weather we had back in June… Anyway, this week has been pretty good weather-wise but also crazy busy. It was Bubs’ birthday this week … Continue reading Keep it Moving!
