What happened to July?

I can't believe that it is August already. Where the heck did July go to. I haven't even put as many posts up as I normally would.

My job, selling advertising, is tough. Clients are very careful where they are spending their advertising dollars, and this makes it very difficult.  This week all I keep on thinking about is the weekend.... feeling a bit like this...

This month was my MIL,  Nan's birthday, one of the firsts since she passed away last Christmas, it was a difficult day for us all, but especially for Phil and Pop who I know were struggling .

Pop, FIL, has had a knee replacement and at 88yrs old has managed pretty well both with the op and with his recovery. He will be in hospital recuperating for at least 5 weeks, and I know that he will miss his little home and his routine.

My Saturdays have been busy taking photos of the team that are training for the World Cup in Taekwon-do in England in October.  I am really enjoying this experience.. the photos are then uploaded onto the Taekwon-do website for everyone to view, which is  really exciting, especially when I see the number of people who view them.

The weather is very mixed, mostly lots of rain, and cold, with very few fine days.

But having said that, the signs of Spring are here. Lambs are being born, Daffodils are blooming, blossoms are out and the Magnolia are looking stunning. Hopefully the weather behaves itself..

I am looking forward to a warm and sunny August.


Have a great weekend , Angela xx
