Today I’m linking up with Anne In Residence http://www.anneinresidence.com/

Anne’s prompts for this month are: Choosing, imagining, making, recommending and wearing.

Choosing:

To start the day with a cup of tea outside. No matter how busy the day ahead, I take just a few minutes to stand outside, breathe in fresh air, listen to the birds and enjoy the morning sun.

Imagining:

What I’d have done differently last year this time (before we went into lockdown) if I had known how different 2020 was going to be from previous years. I don’t like to dwell on ‘what’ if scenarios.

I keep remembering (and being grateful that) we managed to see my parents and sister and my parents-in-law days before our lockdown was announced.

Making:

The most of working from home. I do need to address my work life balance as I’m finding it increasingly difficult to switch off. Last week I was up super early and still online hours after dinner. I barely took lunch most days and by the time Friday morning arrived I was exhausted. Monday looked like the trend was going to continue but Tuesday I took a lunch hour and switched off at a decent hour. My to-do list will still be there the next day.

Recommending:

Fun doormats! This one sums up alot of what I discussed on my blog recently when I listed the 5 things I gave up in 2020. 5-things-i-gave-up-in-2020

Wearing:

Shorts and t-shirts with comfy slip slops for the last part of summer. I love summer and am going to make the most of this last few weeks of warm weather.
