This year-long Friday celebrations series is my way of documenting the good things that have passed my way during the week and being mindful of these, and more.

Sunset on the evening of the 24th September 2015

As I mentioned in my last post, we’ve been travelling around mid-western NSW to see family, but as of 4pm this afternoon – to the minute, we were following along on the GPS – we pulled into our driveway again. Home.

Home.

Such a lovely word! Sure there’s unpacking, and the neverending question of dinner and mail to sort through, not to mention the general bleariness nine hours in a car will give you, but none of that matters!

Here’s what else I’m celebrating this week:

  • I’d like to thank those of you who commented and emailed privately about what I talked about the other day. I’m okay, really. Truly. It’s an end, not the end! The support was lovely – and it helped.
  • This post ‘48 Books You Need To Read In Your 30s‘ caught my eye. As I’m (just) on the older side of the mid-30s, I figure I better get cracking as I’ve only read one of the books listed.
  • On the subject of books again this article will be welcomed to paper-lovers: ‘The Plot Twist: E-Book Sales Slip, and Print Is Far From Dead.
  • The weather forecast for the next few days in Melbourne is very good. Hooray!

This is a short-and-sweet update. Have a lovely weekend.
