Summer away together

Today I thought I'd  like to take look back to when I was I was away with friends and I saw this group of trees.

 It just appealed to me greatly so grabbed my camera  and took this picture in the early morning of it while other folks were doing other things like getting up.
Nature has always held a fascination for me, not least in my childhood being surrounded by countryside.

 

It isn't just flowers that interest me, even leaf structures do too.

It also was a time when I played on a tricycle presenting as very much my sissy gurl self in hur gingham dress and pretty bows letting that little side out.

The week minus

 

Today's post would of been different for actually being able to be away enjoying myself with a few people I know but sadly that was not going to be.

What might of been achieved however is I suspect questionable given at least here it has been very wet, windy and a bit chilly so in some respects at least as here I'd of been stuck indoors with some heating on just playing rather than playing by myself.

That means the only real loss is company really and that perhaps can be sorted for some point in the future when weather and me are better than they currently are.

Instead I played some music here at the weekend between the Olympics coverage and reading the odd comic that came at the weekend.

That's really more like it!

Thoughts on being away Summer 2019

Well, we're back after last weeks adventures and this week I'm writing my reflections of that.

As you'll know I've had a good number of things on my mind for most of the year so far in which have made my conditions somewhat worse than usual so going away as the processes around those things resolve themselves was really more about resetting myself.

One good thing about where we were was that I could just go off into a massive garden to think and immerse myself in watching and listen to the birds, enjoying the plants with many fascinating insects, just getting into that frame of mind.

Sometimes I find the preoccupation with news, reports from various groups on topics just overwhelms me to the point I sense my heart sinking every time I hear the letterbox open so just being totally away from it helped.

The other was just playing and colouring in where I made up the colour scheme rather than slavishly following the original ones that help lift my mind toward both a sense of imagination and also the possible rather than being stuck in a cycle of negativity.

I also did go for walks which lead to me interacting with strangers, exploring the area and just feeling more at ease with myself and the wider world.

Upon my return I felt fresher and a beige envelope showed my ESA money  for not being able to work was going to continue which draws a line under much of what had taken its toll on me.
