Celebrate the Small Things 10-1-24

 

It's the end of the week, so it's time to Celebrate the Small Things...

What am I celebrating this week?

I had a relaxing holiday at the beach house.  The weather wasn't amazing so I didn't swim every day, which is very unusual,  but I did get out to walk every day and I read a lot of books - 13 in total.  I knew I didn't take enough away with me, but I really couldn't carry more than 9.

My critique group continue to enjoy A Stranger to Kindness.  One of them has even reached the part of the book I really struggled to write and she has had no complaints about it so far.  Fingers crossed this continues until the end.

I've spent the time since I've been back from the beach doing some deep cleaning of my house.  I have the bathrooms still to do, but I've asked my son to help me with those since I need to try and clean some mould off the ceilings and he's tall enough he may be able to get the mop up there without having to stand on a chair.  Once I'm through those, I'm going to put some effort into my new office space.  I have a bunch of posters I want to put up, but haven't remembered to get any stick-um to do it yet.  

I'm going to (maybe) teach my first hour-long ride class next weekend, so I'm busy trying to learn the choreography for that.  It's not actually that much more to learn than the classes I teach regularly - 10 songs instead of 7,  but each track is longer and somehow it feels a little daunting.  But I'm sure I can do it.

This week's short story has a bit of a twist to it...  

What are you celebrating this week?
