Mick and Alice left at 5am yesterday and headed for Exeter airport and then to Lourdes in southern France with HCPT group 179. They take a group of children with special needs every Easter. The trip is life-changing... and not just for the children!
Meanwhile, I'm enjoying a life-changing day home alone.
I started with a 6am walk - Sidmouth is an amazingly beautiful place to live. A glimpse of a big red sun as I turned down a previously unexplored footpath took my breath away. A bit further on and the view over the cliffs and sea was even more beautiful. I love this place.
On Friday I'm off to Norfolk for the annual Family Do, this year (our 17th) will be afloat on the Broads. It's the first time I'll have been without Mick and I'm missing him already!
Meanwhile, I'm beginning to prepare for my five days' Living Below the Line livebelowtheline.org.uk - I've weighed out my usual serving of porage oats and currants and am now contemplating if I can afford to add the fruit or whether I'll need to save the 4p for butter on my toast. One of my sponsors has suggested I keep a blog so I'll do just that... watch this space!
