They say you should be careful what you say out loud, for Fate is listening, and she is very fond of playing games.
Say how happy/well/good things are going and you can kiss goodbye to all of it!
I really enjoyed my day by the sea yesterday, but somehow, everything that came before, the progress and all that wonderful enthusiasm seems to have vanished in a puff of smoke, and I’m back to square one.
Although, after all that sunshine and glorious sea views (and ice cream) I’m not so sad about it.
Everything about yesterday was perfect. The journey down was so relaxing. I sat back and watched the world (at least this part of it) sail past the car window. I smelled the sea long before I actually saw it, and the first glimpse of all that sparkling sapphire water had my heart and soul soaring.
The family couldn’t get any response from me for ages as I just stood and stared and took it all in.
Speed boats crossed in front of me, and several people were sunbathing on surfboats, floating on the sea. It was early, so not many people were about, just wonderful.
They said it would be very warm, but there was a lovely cool breeze from the water, so it couldn’t have been more perfect.
We were all a bit subdued when we arrived, for I wasn’t the only one who needed this break, but by the end of the day we were laughing and joking just like old times.
One thing is for sure, we really must do this again, and soon…
