A week’s #MyTime

The view walking down into Lyme Regis

My week-long “staycation” is complete and I’ve really needed that rest and an opportunity to stop a little to just catch myself up and enjoy some #MyTime.  It’s been a week with lots of reading, long walks by the sea – exploring Lyme Regis and taking a look at the flood defence works taking place at West Bay this month – gardening to tackle some of those weeds – taking it a little easy of course with a recently-healed broken wrist – cleaning up the greenhouse and sowing seeds, singing – choir has restarted for the summer term – dabbling in writing and enjoying the garden with the hum of the bees and song of the birds.

So yes, I have managed to enjoy some of my pre-retirement, retirement, no-pressure #MyTime and I hope to continue to do so, whenever I can.

#MyTime is here

Yes the countdown is complete.  My 60th birthday today and a lovely walk in the bluebell woods of Powerstock, time to play with my new SurfacePro and a meal out for two at Melplash.

Quiet, relaxing, a no pressure birthday.

And I have a week off work to enjoy lots more too.
