after an icecream eating, postcard writing, holiday book choosing, garden tidying, heavy duty ironing, loft ladder climbing, suitcase finding, suncream buying, shoe pondering, freezer stocking, football sticker sorting, ticket printing,camera battery checking, hamster catching kind of weekend.
But we aren't leaving for a few days yet, so I hope I'll be able to squeeze in a bit more postcard writing and certainly another post or two; and I'll definitely be around to give you a wave if you'd like to post your own....Me On Monday. Have a great week!
You sound deep in preparations already, Sian - though I was a bit nonplussed on the freezer-stocking, and wondering if you are so organised that you have planned and prepared meals in advance for your return, so you have more time to sort your photos! Thank you for the 'wee dote' - I have just had a flash of memory of my Aunty Hazel saying this :).
ReplyDeleteSounds like a busy 'preparation' week ahead....exciting though.
ReplyDeleteSounds like another busy weekend for you---and a busy week ahead. Then hopefully, you'll be able to relax---unless it's an activity filled holiday!
ReplyDeleteLove that Wee Dote card. My friend uses the word often, although she is in Scotland, so it must be a shared expression. Sounds like you have the holiday prep well under control. I'm jumping in today for the first time. It's got me over my blogger's block so thank you for a great idea.
ReplyDeletePacking, oh how I dislike it! Pack too early and you forget what you've put in there, leave it too late and panic packing takes over!
ReplyDeleteYou have a busy week ahead, you'll need a holiday by the end of it!
I just love getting ready for a trip, and the anticipation that it involves! Can't wait to see where you're headed this year.
ReplyDeleteOooh Holidays! So much fun! I like your reference to camera battery checking. I always charge my battery but have left it in the charger too many times to count!
ReplyDeleteMaybe you could then explain the hamster catching??? Lol. Ooohhh it's such a happy time when you're holiday packing,
ReplyDeleteI received my first postcard this morning .... Sssoooooo happy here
i leave my packing till the last minute, so I am very impressed...and the 'wee dote' made me smile too!

I hate the packing part of traveling! So many decisions to make! But i love your photo for this week! It says so much without showing much :) It's brilliant!
ReplyDeleteThe most stressful part for me. Check...check... and check again! Happy packing x
ReplyDeleteVery busy with a healthy mix of fun and necessary!
ReplyDeleteHave a fab holiday!!
ReplyDeleteIsn't it so exciting getting ready to head out!! A week & a half before we head out here. Hope you have a fabulous week!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a hectic weekend Sian! I like your choice of holiday books - have heard lots of good things about 'The Girl who Saved the King of Sweden'. Enjoy your holiday preparations! X
ReplyDeletehappy packing! we will be doing just the opposite today, unpacking!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a relaxing but busy weekend - my suitcases are unpacked but still need to be put away properly.
ReplyDeleteI really like your Me on Mondays :) I think I will start joining in :P
ReplyDeleteHave fun finishing up that packing!
I hate packing :( in fact I should be doing it now but I'm easily distracted :D
ReplyDeletehave a lovely holiday xxx
I always like to pack early - about a day early for each week we'll be gone. I hope my post gets to you before you leave. I've always found mail to and from your island to be slow.If not, it will be waiting upon your return.

How exciting! I could do with a book or lesson on how to step back from the internet... I need to put limits on myself as so much time wasted!
ReplyDeleteAhhh, the pre-holiday excitement of getting ready and not forgetting anything. Hope you're having a wonderful time.
