Another Christmas tradition of mine is to get one or two new decorations for my Christmas tree. Last year I got two new ones but this year I got a couple more than I intended. My tree has a colour theme of mainly red, white and silver.

Christmas traditions always change and evolve and that is okay. That's part of life. They change because of circumstances or because children grow up or like in my case, we move country. I spent some of my childhood years in Germany and we had one set of traditions at Christmas that then changed when we moved back to the UK.

I have been single for a couple of years now and while I was occasionally on a few online dating sites, I wasn’t fully engaged in the thought of meeting someone new. I also had more work to do on myself to help heal the trauma from my last big relationship from over ten years ago. I feel in a much better place now mentally to be more able to meet up with people I know of an online dating site.

I’ve had this blog now for a few months and I thought it was high time that I should introduce myself to you all and tell you a little bit more about myself.

Here we are, the last week or the last five days of the August Break photo challenge.

Week four already, blimey this month is flying by! And it's starting to feel a bit autumnal here in the NW of England but it's a few weeks until the end of the month.

Week three already! Wow, that's gone fast! Only a few more weeks of The August Break to go now. Are any of you doing the challenge as well?

Here are the photos from week two of the August Break by Susannah Conway.  If you'd like to follow me on my Instagram, where these photos were posted for the challenge, I hope to see you over on my grid.
