Time for reflection

Me at the end of every month: omg I can’t believe it’s [insert month here] already.
But really I can’t believe it’s August tomorrow. And pretty much every month review this last year or so has gone ‘This has been such a hard month…..’ and then I go list every thing I’ve done; I have pushed so hard and achieved so much and the reflective process of journaling affirms this time and again. So yeah, Go Me!!!! 🎉 🏆 🎊

That’s why I’m leaving August blank if only for a few hours and sit here in the library, listening to the lady cut decorations for the next promo and watching the lovely one read. Seriously, scissors on card is literally one of my favourite sounds in the world. ✂️ Kinda wishing I’d bought by zoom though…..

day off, Family time, mom life, mum life

Beach Day

Today’s been a beach day 🌞 went in the sea, built sand kingdoms, watched the tide come in and take them away – oh and I got burned 🥵 as I was a bit slapdash with the sun screen missing half my legs and entirely forgetting that the back of my top was MESH doh 🙄!

Back in the cool of the woods my burn is, well burning 🔥 so exiting these cool green time lapse videos have been quite soothing. I’ve been playing with the speed of the time lapse to play with the whole passing of time and I’m pretty pleased with the results so far 👍

As I have aphantasia I have no idea how things are going to turn out – just a feeling, a description rather than an image in my mind so I’m always as surprised as everyone else at the end result and that’s kinda cool I think.

Anyhoo I’m going to watch a bit of Breaking Bad before bed – love it when a program is better each time you watch it
