Day 33 Happy - Thursday 26th October

[byslantedlight]

Happy 1 - getting the girls outside early in the morning, with dew still on the grass (for drawing pictures in) and A's favourite cows back in the field.

Happy 2 - only tomorrow to go until I have a week's holiday! I don't have anything big planned, because I was supposed to be in Australia and then part of the reason I wasn't was that I needed a new job, but there's Salisbury, and a visitor and a trip up north (which I've not at all planned for yet!) to look forward to. Perhaps a few lazy days just trying to straighten things out here. It'll be the last time off before I move house and job and everyone there needs to be all present and correct on new-baby-alert for a few months, so here's hoping it's properly relaxing. Oh and hey, I just thought - I should be able to get a few runs in!

Happy 3 - realising I actually had nothing I had to do when I got home tonight. Dinner was made and just needed cooking, decisions were made and so I could take a break from stressing over them... So I watched a few eps of Buffy, knitted a few rows of my jacket project, and here I am.

How're you today?

Hi bsl, 'r' here!

Wishing you a happy staycation and, in case you hadn't seen, when you are in Salisbury I'm sure you would enjoy: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-wiltshire-41267378

Hoping everything work-related works out well for you and isn't too disruptive for the little people, especially the youngest who sounds like she will turn out a much nicer human being than the others in her family; especially with your influence!

Happy to stay anon

Those happies sound pretty good! And oh, can I ever relate to that no. 3 - you know there's too much stress around when it comes almost as a shock to realise there's currently no immediate crisis looming :-s Hope you had a lovely relaxing evening!

Heee - I definitely appreciate those moments without a crisis more and more! Now I just need to work on being awake enough to reply to lj comments in a timely way... *g*

A whole week off! Wonderful! And an evening with nothing pressing or stressful to do! Just the thing!
Maybe you can travel to Australia next year?

[byslantedlight.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'm hoping Australia next year - well, I've told my mum that I will too, so I must.

And oh bliss - a week of living my life rather than someone else's! Must admit that's a drawback of nannying...

Yay! for all the happy!

Your first picture is lovely. There's so much space in it. The grass seems to go on forever, the trees are really little because they're so far away, and the sky is so big and painted with interesting clouds. And there are A's favourite cows! There really is something very special about living in the countryside. :-)

Enjoy your week off! (And how is your jacket project going?)

I'm barely up to a dozen rows of my jacket project - I'm so sleepy when I get home that its all I can do to lift knitting needles!

I'm so glad you like the first picture - i do like pictures that are heavy on sky, but they need something else to be something... *g*
