Jayne and I had a lovely lunch yesterday. We tried a different pub to have lunch which was on one of the canals and we thought as it was summer it would be nice to sit outside, guess what, it was raining and cold! Today has been warmer and we have actually seen the sun for a while which has been so nice and it is due to be like this for the rest of the week and weekend. You never know this might be the start of summer for us.
I have been working all day today and tomorrow is home jobs day and laundry and Friday I have some other jobs to get done. DH is home all weekend so we can also get things done and it will be nice for him not to have any swimming events.
Miss Floof is booked in for her spa day a week on Friday so will be nice and clean for her holidays. I also need to get our bags out and start planning of what to take with us, especially my books.
The problem with quite a full TBR shelf is what do you take and then what happens if you make a mistake and take the wrong books or some which are ones you don’t want to read just now? I have a few books which are what I call practical books which I do want to read but not necessarily whilst I am on holiday. Also I have a few autobiographies and biographies on my shelf and again I do want to read them but again not on holiday. Also will I be into reading my crime books or fantasy books or a mix of both. It really is a hard decision! Of course I will put out a set of books and then before we go I will probably change them about four times and add at least five more, just in case! It really is harder than packing the clothes!
We have a few visits sorted for when they are with us and also we are planning for a quiet week when they have all come home as well. Lots of people are saying that hopefully the weather will be good for us, but honestly I am not that bothered I just want to be away.
You’re right – just to be away from home and relaxing is the best part but I’m sure you’ll bring just the right books, Miss Susie, and you are going to feel a who lot better once you have your wonderful spa day, Coco!
