Upcoming Semi-Silent Retreat – at home

Although I am due to post some full write-ups of my trip to Mongolia with my mother, I thought that I would post at least something just to get myself back into the swing of things.

Time goes so quickly that I was shocked 🙀 and dramatically dismayed 😫 to see that my last post was almost a month ago!

There are a number of topics for me to cover, but I’ll start with something more current to my mind at the moment.

Starting tomorrow, I will be on my own 🥳 for two weeks while M takes his summer holiday – meeting friends and touring France 🇫🇷 with his eldest. Despite his grumblings 🤬 about the fact I chose to go on holiday with my mother 💁🏽‍♀️this summer instead of him (forgetting that we have tons of holidays planned together this year💏), I am of mixed emotions about my pending time alone.

I have joked a couple of times about how he and my BFF conspired against me 🤨 to both be out of the country at the same time. Now, we all know that jokes 🤡 hold truths (thus why I am not a fan of most comedy), and the truth is that despite my general preference to be alone and complaints about the fact that other humans roam this earth with me 🤬, I love my peeps. 🥰

As a Cancerian crab🦀, I love my home 🏠(wherever that may be). As a Dragon 🐲, I protect those whom I love and trust. Without either one I am lost. So, in a less dramatic way (WHAT 🤷🏽‍♀️ – I’m a Footner now: we do DRAMATIC!) I feel a little bit lost with the idea of two solid weeks without either one around to keep me company or vice versa.

On the other hand, I’ve already filled my weekend schedule 🗓 (as I do) with pampering 💆🏽‍♀️💅🏽 and events 🎆 that I don’t mind doing on my own. I contemplated a road trip by myself as I do love to travel on my own, but trying to be more fiscally responsible has put that on hold for the moment.

So, I shall focus on hanging with the kits 😻😻(guess I should post about them soon!), enjoying the house being magnificently spotless 👏🏽🙌🏽, and the time for a semi-silent retreat (by default! 😂🤣). Plus, I’ll probably (definitely, 🤞🏽hopefully🙏🏽) do a bit of writing. 😜🤩
