December is the most distinctive of all the months but, at least for English children, August is pretty special too. A whole month of no school stretching out in front of them. That could either be wonderful or awful, depending on how each one thinks of school.
My schooldays are long gone, but I still have a whole month to enjoy. Thirty one days to use as I please.
My plans include a little bit of dog sitting. Holly Dog has sent an invitation.
I've got three summer schools to attend on line. That isn't as onerous as it sounds for each is just one hour a day for a whole week. Two are on Shakespeare and one is hand embroidery. All are run by the Women's Institute. I've done several Shakespeare courses before and these two are on Hamlet and Measure for Measure.
I've got two short courses too, on drawing and journalling. These are run each month and are very relaxing.
I'm hoping to swim if my legs are OK. I miss my mermaid sessions when I can't go.
I've plans for several meals out with various friends and relations. Nothing fancy but fish and chips just might feature.
I've been invited to a seventieth birthday party for a dear friend.
And in between times I shall relax, knit, crochet, maybe go out for a few days.
And maybe write a few blog posts too.
Your month is planned. Two things on my calendar - vacation trip for a week with family and the Fair in the middle of the month. Oh, forgot dinner guests one night and dinner at another set of friends another evening.
ReplyDeleteIt will be lovely to have your break with your family.
DeleteWhat a lovely month you have planned. I have a dental appointment on the 14th of the month, and then we go away at the end of the month for a bit of a holiday. In between I am hoping to get lots of the garden processed, and some projects completed.
