Time flies.....

Time flies........ especially when you’re enjoying a week off work! Where did the week go?? It seems to have disappeared in a flash! I shouldn’t really complain though.... I’ve had a lovely week with hubby. We’ve had long walks, a bit of gardening and plenty of laughs together. I’ve even managed two sea dips, with a third planned for tomorrow :)

I remain hopeful about plans for later in the year, but if they fall through because of Covid restrictions then hey ho. Nothing we can do, just graciously accept the refunds and give the savings a wee boost ahead of 2022!! Gigs will return and our trips are all refundable or moveable - Jersey, Edinburgh and Manchester will all still be there after Covid calms down. I don’t have much desire to travel further afield anymore......I remain fearful of the impact a long haul flight might have on my brain! It took an invitation from Queen Elizabeth herself to get me on my first short, post diagnosis plane journey!!

 Next year we are hoping for a trip slightly further away...... we’ll be married 25 years in January, and are hoping to celebrate Silver with a trip to Venice......fulfilling a long held dream to visit Italy. If we can’t go there I’d settle for another trip to beautiful Donegal....or Cork looks beautiful too. Not to mention the Wicklow Mountains and the lavender fields in Wexford. Plenty of staycation opportunities if we can’t go abroad. As ever, I am reminded of the fantastic landscape we have on our doorstep. I maintain we are lucky enough to live on one of the most beautiful places on our wee planet. A trip to Venice would be special, but so long as I have my big man for company then a car picnic and long walk at White Park Bay would do grand! 

Stay safe. Wash you hands. Get your vaccine. Don’t be selfish. Appreciate what you have. Get outside and enjoy our wee country! Live with the hand you’re dealt and don’t waste time, because it flies by...... Xx
