Summer is ending which does suck, but mostly because I get 6 weeks off. Don't hate me. #teacherslife.
I love what is coming up though. I find the Autumn/Winter days so much more comforting than summer. I love the rain, the dark nights, evening just by candle light. I don't particularly like the dark mornings though but that is because all of the places I can walk my dog at 6am are pitch black. I also love wearing flip flops all the time, but then again I will wear them in the rain. If you come from where I am from you will know that you are better off in board shorts and flip flops in winter as you will dry out faster when you reach your destination.
I am really trying to focus on the positives because last academic year was one of the hardest of my life, anxiety levels wise. I am so grateful that I have my husband. If I was still living alone I am not sure where I would be at all.
To get me through I need plans. Things to look forward to. So far I have till December, sort apart from nothing in September.
October:
My Birthday! YAY! I am 30 though Boooooo (I joined this site when I was 21!!) I know there is something planned with my parents and family as my Dad said when he left last time "don't worry love you will see us in October" which my Mum tried badly to back track on.
Half Term too!!
November:
London trip with my Mum (again) we went last halloween with my sister two. She is invited this time but we don't know if she is well enough. We are planning for my mum to travel to me, Then us both get a train to London (take about an hour 30 minutes). The See a matinee and go to the Lush Store on Oxford Street and then head back. We did all the sight seeing last time.
December:
Of course Christmas! I get two weeks off and time to spend with my Family back in Wales.
I think that is a pretty good start to the academic year and end of the year.
We are hoping to go on holiday in during the Easter break and get a second Puppy (a girl) next summer. A lot of good things coming up. I have to remind myself that the school year is only actually 9 ish Months with all the breaks. I also need to decide what to do. Stay at my job, move job or change career all together. I have given myself till Mid March to make some decisions.
