Happy November Escapees!
Fireworks night - an opportunity for families and communities to come together, huddle around bonfires toasting marshmallows, playing with sparklers against the night sky, and make all the oooooos and arghhhhhhs as fireworks go off overhead. Dogs (if they are anything like mine) spend their evening cowering behind the couch, just itching for it all to be over for another year.
Post fireworks night, it is officially ok to start thinking about Christmas. It’s less than 2 months away and so many of us shamelessly move into a new ‘psyched for Christmas’ mode, sparked on by an onslaught of Mariah Carey in Sainsbury’s and the sudden prominence of family sized tubs of Quality Street on supermarket shelves.
Many cynics among us (ourselves included) will say it is too early to start being excited about the Christmas season.. But you know what, why not latch on to something joyful and positive and use it as a force for energy, momentum and excitement?
November is always a tricky time of year - we know a long winter and a lack of vitamin D lies ahead. Why are we so critical about finding that something positive and exciting to drive us forward?
As such this year we are all about embracing that little bit of sparkle of the upcoming festivities to lift us out of any end of year, autumnal funk and carry us forward with a spring in our step. Sing along to Mariah Carey in full voice, get that first mince pie in November and embrace the build up to the closing of the year. Start to take stock of all the great things that 2024 has offered and the difficulties that have been overcome and get that buzz of excitement for all the adventures your life and career has to offer in 2025.
Happy Escaping!
