Goodbye 2021

 I love to look back over my year and alongside my blog I always keep a journal. When I feel like nothing is going right or feel engulfed by life its great to look back with gratitude over what I have accomplished and experienced. This year being no different, very easy to fall into the negative mode with Covid still impacting on so much of our lives. 

So here's my highlights of a  year well spent between lockdowns and work pressures.

Making an effort to drive to see my friend and take regular walks along the seafront

Being thankful for vaccines that helped keep me safe whilst working through a pandemic

Staying home for my birthday and enjoying what our city has to offer.

Enjoying walks with Frankie

Getting Stan The Van

And taking him on lots of adventures

Spending time with friend's

and family

 

and managing some sneaky trips away without Stan the Van

2021 hasn't been so bad, we lost some precious people and our dear Frankie Boy

But we got through it, had some great times and ended the year with health and happiness and an appreciation for all that we do have.

Christmas.

After the stressful days leading up to Christmas I actually had a lovely time. Filled with friends, family and a lot of good food.  Alongside visitors we managed to get out for some walks, visited the Museum to go and see Grayson Perry's Art Club Exhibition, and went for afternoon tea. It was a very full and busy few days.

Today I am back to work and quite enjoying the peace of my little home office. A day of organising, sorting and planning getting ready for the new year.
