I have decided I like Autumn again. I am coping well with the colder days and using my layers, gloves and coats etc... The colours are SO beautiful. Now to work on loving rainy days!!!!! 

I have begun to think about Christmas (I know for many of you it is much too soon) but I love Christmas and having my family all together and I love a plan! We are having to make new plans as for the first time I won't have one of my children with me for Christmas day. So we are thinking about how to make it differently special. I am so grateful that I do manage to see all my siblings and their families either on Christmas day or Boxing day. However it is getting harder and harder to arrange everything. So planning is essential and compromise happens. I know for many of you it can be difficult to sort out and causes all sorts of arguments. I am hoping we can work it all out peacefully. 

Today coffee and catching up with my friend. Lovely!
