DAY THIRTY-NINE  //  LIST DETAILS OF YOUR FIRST CRUSH AND/OR FIRST KISS 👄




We're in the month of love with Valentines Day fast approaching, so I got to thinking about the things that have shaped love in my life. I started thinking right back at the start... 


💓 My first crush was....
(Here's my list...)

💓 Who: A boy in my class at infant school. He had dark blonde hair and glasses and was quite smart.
💓 Age: I was approx 5/6. 
💓 Year: It was the 90's.
💓 When: It started when he shared his box of milk, at playtime with me in the lunch-hall.
💓 Where: We were in infant school.
💓 What it was like: It was just a crush, but all throughout infants and juniors I remembered his kindness. He got sick near me one day and I sort of went off him a bit but I've always remembered him. We lost touch after junior school as he went to the Grammar School. But I can still picture him.

👄 And my first real kiss was...
(Here's my list...)

👄 Age: I was 11 almost 12. (That seems far too you g now! But at the time it seemed right.)
👄 Year: 2000.
👄 Where: Outside the art block of high-school.
👄 When: Early evening it was the Summer holidays, between Junior school and starting high-school.
👄 Who: A not-so-attractive, short boy with a mushroom-cut (aka the bowl cut) hairstyle, he had large deidre-glasses. I didn't know him, my friend and me, met his friend and him a few days earlier and arranged to meet on the high-school playing fields. I won't name him for his own privacy!
👄 What it was like: He had to stand on the steps to be the same height as me 'cringe'. Despite this I still remember the butterflies I felt kissing a boy for the first time.

DAY THIRTY-FOUR  //  LIST THE THINGS THAT YOU LIKE TO DO IN SPRING.

Ok so Spring is my favourite of all four seasons...Why...because:
☀️ Summer can be TOO hot.
🍂 Autumn is quite nice and my second favourite season, if it wasn't when the evenings are getting darker.
❄️ Winter is too icy, dangerous to drive, inconvenience and disruption getting about. 

... 🌸 Spring is bright, a little warmer, it's getting lighter in the evenings. Thinks are new and reborn -flowers, spring lambs, ducklings.

(Here's my list of all the things I like to do when Spring comes around...)

🌸 walking along the canalside in the sunshine.
🌸 watching baby ducks swinming around/ feeding them bread scraps.
