I
can't believe how much better I feel now we are back in British Summer Time. I
mean, I shouldn't be surprised really - I know how much I hate Winter and I
know how my mood improves at this time of year every year, and yet still it
seems to have hit me as a surprise.
I've
noticed that I may have accidentally stumbled onto a blog challenge that I can
try and sustain throughout 2025. So far, my number of postings month to month
have been 21, then 19, then 21. So I'm thinking that maybe I can keep that
going and just alternate the number of writings that I do each month. If I maintain
it right through until December that'll be a grand total of 240 postings in the
year, which is a nice number to aim for. And there'll be the lovely sense of
achievement, too, which will hopefully override the monthly pain and anguish of
trying to write an exact number of posts rather than just doing it when I feel
like it.
In
other news, most of the schools break up today for their Easter Holidays. So
today is the day that I like to call 'Onslaught Eve'. The number of people we
have onsite will have quadrupled by this time on Sunday. We go from an
occupancy rate of about 25% (mostly permanent residents) to about 85% this
weekend, with almost full capacity being achieved over the Easter Bank Holiday
weekend. As usual, there are a long list of things that it seems we just
haven't had time to get round to, but as usual, I am sure, all will be well and
it will all happen without too much heartbreak or injury.
It is scary, though, that it is suddenly upon us. I swear it's only two days
ago that I was sending an e-mail that said, 'the good thing is we still have
six weeks to get this sorted...'
And
part of me wishes I'd taken more advantage of the Saturdays I've had off,
because that won't be happening again now until the Autumn.
