I had no plans for disappearing from social media this summer, but truth is the best way for me to enjoy this season is actually trowing all the plans up in the air and live one day at a time. I’m postponing all my scheduled posts in September and clearing space in my head for new ideas and dreams. I’m making time for reading, going on short walks along the river, watching the kids play outdoor and nothing else, while waiting for the holidays to begin.
How are your summer days going?
May has gone by so quickly. It has been a full month, packed with end of the school year activities, school trips, birthday parties, outdoor activities, after dinner walks, a full moon and fireworks. I almost haven’t had time to stop and notice or take picture, just enjoyed the moments.
This month was full of surprises, mostly good, some unexpected.
We enjoyed the longer days, the afternoon light and our flowering pots.
She quarantined over the Easter holidays.
The kids enrolled and had fun in a chess tournament.
We made a trip to beach.
I started a new painting.
We went for after dinner rides while visiting the grandparents.
We had endless afternoons after school.
And ended the month with my birthday and beautiful presents.
Paid a long due visit to the botanical gardens and gathered reference material for future paintings
Filled the pages of my perpetual journal every week
Bought some early birthday presents for me
Made some progress on my ongoing painting
Discovered new places just outside of town
Made time for friends after school again
How’s your March has been?
