I'm Back

I just don’t understand myself sometimes. I set myself a challenge of writing 26 blog posts over 26 days and have no trouble in completing the task. In fact it reminds me how much I enjoy blogging and how beneficial I find it. So why have I failed to blog in over 3 months? I am a mystery to myself.

The last 3 months feel like a bit of a blur. The whole year is drifting by. Last month I celebrated my 32nd birthday. There is something reassuring about being an even number once more. We went for a family walk around Burbage Common in the morning. This was then followed by a trip to Fosse Shopping Park. It was the first day it had reopened after we had been put back in lockdown for a second time. It was my first visit to any kind of retail provider in months. Riley squealed with delight when we pulled up. The boy adores shopping. I didn’t actually buy anything and found I was afraid to touch items to inspect them. Continuing the first in a few months theme, I had a Chinese takeaway for dinner. In normal circumstances the day would have been classed as ordinary. However, we all know the new normal is so far removed from what was everyday life.

I am not going to ramble on too much in this post. I know what I want my next blog to be about and hope to bring it to you in less than 3 months’ time! I promise it will be more interesting than this post.
