๐ฟ As much as I detest the cold. The pain in my hip, the discomfort of shivering, & the inevitable deadly cold sores. ๐ฉ๐ท
๐ฟ I do love being seriously wrapped up and being on a speedy walk in the crisp air with my pooch ๐ถ while my bairns ride their bikes ๐ด๐พ๐ด๐พโโ๏ธ.
๐ฟ Thank goodness we live in a beautiful place with plenty of nature to explore. The change of the seasons is impossible to ignore when the environment becomes a different place as the colours, growth and life changes around us.
๐ฟ Spotting the cute helmeted acorns on the little Oak tree was exciting, once one little soldier was spotted, they appeared all over the wise Oak.
๐ฟ A tree that when bare my son loves to climb. It’s a funny thing old change.
๐ฟ Sometimes we hate it, sometimes we are desperate for it & other times we don’t allow it. When it’s ultimately unavoidable.
๐ฟ Often the new emerging paths can seem frightening & they are often the ones we will be better for taking.
๐ฟ So as the new chilly season creeps in, I don’t welcome it but I’m ready for it. I have my boots and woollies ready, I know there’s going to be a shit load of work involved for me over the winter, exhausted just thinking about it. But it’s worth it in the end. ๐๐ป The cold graft is complimented by the joy of cosy memory making too. Blankets, candles & brews.
๐ฟ No I didn’t say the C WORD. But I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t looking forward to it. It makes all the pain & exhaustion worthwhile. So I’m raising a tea cup, to never feeling 100% ready but going for it anyway, cos we have to. โ๏ธ
