Plenty of R & R

Holiday time meant...pizza making, sleep-overs, play-dates, nature walks, Polynesian Dance class, picnics, sunsets, birthday parties, bike rides, ukelele playing, archery, craft....and much MUCH more!

I guess all good things must come to an end. But how sad the school holidays are now over. At the start I created in my head one of those earnest, overly zealous LONG lists titled 'Things I MUST get done these holidays!'. Those lists can be a bit debilitating don't you think? Normally I beat myself up if I can't smugly cross off the tasks on a list.  But this holiday was different somehow, I'm getting better at chilling out! I don't mind that half of 'The List' didn't happen. The fun spontaneous moments more than made up for it. Actually, the last two weeks have been incredibly relaxing!

And so with our batteries re-charged and our engines revving, we take our place at the starting line ready to speed through the next exciting 10 weeks.

Hmmmm that already sounds like double the energy that we used up in our holidays...and ours went for three weeks!

Ah...so good to be home from our Disney World Trip and find that I had several of your posts to catch up on!! Looks like you had a wonderful school holiday. You teach school there on NI don't you?
