I just had to write!

I am really struggling with the fact that we are now into September! Where has the summer gone??! It has been a strange year so far. Unexpected events have made it memorable – the sad passing of my Nana in March and the pleasant surprise of hubby’s uncle visiting from Australia in July/August – but at the same time it seems to have passed so quickly. I have hardly achieved anything that I set out to. I really can’t handle the idea of reaching the end of this year in the same position as I started it in.

September itself is going to be pretty busy, with a long weekend to England this week and then a week in Italy at the end of the month. In between those things, we need to make progress with clearing out the old house, before the weather becomes too completely miserable. I also have to prepare for my driving test which is looming closer. Then there is the actual preparation and packing for our trip!

I have been deliberating over my working pattern today and finally decided to not work any Fridays. I need all the free time I can get!

So my next step is to devise a plan and stick to it! No, actually, the next step is to DO WHAT NEEDS DOING!! I know I am a terrible procrastinator but I need to focus for just one month and then I am free! I don’t know if any of you remember but back in March I set out a plan where I would try to get everything done during the BST period of the year and then when the clocks go back to GMT spend my time cooking, watching films and starting some “crafty” hobbies. After today, there are 54 days left of BST 2014. I have to make them count!
