1st August, what will you enjoy this month?

July felt like lots of clearing & a bit of a healing rollercoaster 😀
I’m still healing & this is the phase to keep my expectations in check!
As mentioned in a prior post …. Gotta keep up with my physio each day, as I’m getting back towards “Claire power” 😀

A real blessing of this time has been my family, with our ups & downs – the fact we all deeply care, love & respect each other – is wonderful and we realise how blessed we are. We have our moments 🙂 Who doesn’t?
However, we ❤ each other and spending time together.
As I'll soon be going back to work full time & my dad starts a new job next week – we decided to have a full day off this week & go somewhere new.

The header photo of today's diary is my photo in the grounds of Blenheim Palace
A lovely relaxing day and the weather was kind. We sat on the terrace enjoying a coffee, basking in the late afternoon sun & watching some people setting up for a cricket match – all felt very civilised 🙂
You convert your day ticket into an annual pass, which makes it all the more relaxing – as we decided just explore the grounds at whatever pace was comfortable – enjoy a picnic lunch & we can always go back to visit the Palace itself in the autumn/winter 🙂

I used to love that when I lived in Paris – the Louvre is free 1 Sunday each month and so for the 6 months I lived there, I went 6 times and saw a little at a time – or some parts twice 🙂 Much more relaxing than zooming around thinking you have to see it all that visit! Hmmmm feels like a deeper meaning in there somewhere 😀

My sister has been away this week – staying with my brother, who helped arrange work experience for her in Birmingham.
It was soooooo great to see her tonight. Arriving back home bursting to tell us all about it and feeling clear she’s on the right path. She’s on a journey of her own and it feels so exciting to see her lit up like that – the magical caring person she is.

A great start to the month 🙂
Hope your August is starting well too xx
