It was a week of celebrating and of new beginnings.
- The Boy celebrated a milestone birthday
- The Boy began work experience. He is working with a film company, one day a week for the whole of this term
- I had my haircut
- I had cause to visit the doctor
- A friend joined Tilly and me for a walk and we were caught out by a heavy downpour
- We welcomed a new baby into our wider family – a reason to be joyful
- I became the IT problem solver for The Boy, which resulted in rudeness from him and a telling off from me
- I began planning and researching a solo trip
- The Boy went to AEP
- We discussed ideas for family travels later this year and came up with a rough plan
- The Boy met friends for lunch
Is it a pure coincidence that your plans for a solo trip come immediately after a stressful incident where your knowledge and assistance wasn’t greeted with the thankfulness that it deserved? 😉
It sounds like it has been a busy week for you all, a holiday is definitely needed!

I am hoping for a quieter week this week! The plans for my solo trip were already underway …

A solo trip sounds like a fun planning process – your favourite city? Rudeness is never a nice thing to deal with regardless of the source. How very exciting that TB is working with a film company for his work experience. I am sending positive energy that the Dr’s visit was routine; yes all good!!

Have never been on a solo trip that wasn’t work related. Not sure how I would do but wouldn’t mind finding out!!
How grand that the boy has a job once a week through the term. One day a week is the perfect amount of time to get his feet wet. I believe he is 16. I started waiting tables shortly after my 17th birthday. Work is good for us!!
Lovely photograph. The contrast between the dark branch and the shimmery, silvery water is beautiful.

I didn’t go on a solo trip until my early 30s, I think. The key is to enjoy your own company and take a book with you when you go for an early dinner!
