First Monday in August

 Drizzler today. 

Had a lovely fire at the beach last night, hanging out with H and the girls and a couple of friends. Saw bats on the way home. Lost and lorn today and feeling a bit like I've spent a lot of my life treating people pretty cheaply. I wonder how I grew up to be so self-involved? I always have been. 

Coffee and a tidy up this morning after a crazy weekend, and then I'm taking the girls to the botanic gardens for a guided nature walk in the afternoon. We must be coming up half way through the holidays, so it feels like the clock is ticking re home education. I imagine at this point we will try school again, see if this year is any different, and just keep HE at the front of our minds. 

Perhaps I need to find more to do with my days, more of a sense of purpose. I wish I was a writer or something, had any kind of discernable skill that I could devote myself too. I don't have a career as such and even if I did, no job really works around children and school hours. I used to have so much ambition.
