As I count down the days to my sabbatical month* I find myself feeling a little sad about the things I am going to miss. Like the early morning sun illuminating the dew on a succulent lampranthus.
* Actually the last week of December and the whole of January which of course, if we are going to be pedantic about it, is a little more than a month but who is counting? You are? Why I am not surprised? On reflection, there is a very good chance that it is indeed a month to the Lizard People of Jupiter or perhaps the Ents or even the Clangers, which in my book still counts and I am, after all, making the rules.
Uh?
I thought you’d just had that. I did my best. Clearly I was not good enough. I will now retire to a safe distance and beat myself silly with a defunct stem of Alstroemeria.
If you’re going to have another sabbatical, please find someone else. Ta. Muchly ta. (I have a library of songs available otherwise).

OK, so you won’t be stopping blogging but you’ll be working so what will you be stopping? (You asked for that, knowing that I play on language).

A sabbatical! What a good idea. I’m sure the time will fly by and you won’t miss anything about working.

When I was gardening for a living, the majority of customers did not wish to see you in January . They think there is nothing to do! Weather permitting I would get on with all the pruning etc in my own garden and Irene’s wish list!

I am looking forward to doing some tidying in my own garden too. And a little R & R of course!
