Autumn is now with us. As well as thinking of our own car, warm and safety for the next 6 months; we need to think of others, more frail and vulnerable and from this communal activity draw comfort for ourselves to share.

Near me there are two elderly ladies, i remember to keep a watchful eye on them. As well as an elderly couple. Feels like mum and dad all over again. Thinking about them more takes my mind off my own smaller troubles. I feel comforted that i have the experience to help now.

Yesterday i went off early to see mum and dad and noticed for the first time how cold it was and time to et my gloves, woolly hat and scarf out in case i need them for my visit on Sunday.

On Sunday I'm out for lunch to remember and celebrate so much.

So this winter i am concentrating on self care now i certainly need it to see me through these times.

Thinking like this and doing these things makes me feel good.

(Later this afternoon i plan to walk down to my sports centre to see if i can get back in the leisure pool).

I'd really like to hear what everyone else plans to do about this Autumn and Winter.

I absolutely agree Greyone

Self care is essential if we are to help others, so making plans for the coming months will certainly help in many ways.

Very pleased you are going out to lunch on Sunday, enjoy!

Maybe what we should all do is focus on one good thing each weekend?
