My husband and I have been very proud of ourselves recently for making plans and actually following through on them, instead of cancelling which used to be a common practice for us. Especially since we basically took a year off from socializing and plans, it would be super easy for us to fall back on cancelling. Sunday was full of plans, including the birthday party of my friend's daughter (the girl I've been occasionally babysitting for). It has been delightful watching her grow up, and I'm excited to be a part of her life. It's unfortunate I missed the first few months due to the pandemic, but I'm glad that I have been able to spend time with recently, and I look forward to seeing her continue to grow and develop into a young woman. And even though I don't have kids, so going to a birthday party full of adults with kids was slightly intimidating for me, I still attended, and had a great time. Later in the evening, my husband and I had plans to attend a free, outdoor concert of the Cape Ann Big Band at Stage Fort Park. It was rainy and dreary, but the concert was still scheduled to go on, so we suited up in rain gear and headed over. The concert only lasted 30 minutes before it was called off due to the rain getting worse, but we had a delightful time nonetheless. And we both commented on how amazing it was that we actually got out to the show. The weather would have given us a perfect excuse, but we followed through instead. I hope we continue this pattern, because it is good for us to get back out into the world and experience life again!
With delight,
♥Jamie
