    Yes,all we have is now! This will be the second Christmas without my husband of 50 years. Losing him changed my views on absolutely everything. Slow down, enjoy the moment and cherish the close friends and family that you have. I don’t bother buying “stuff” any more as it is just not important. ❤

    Totally agree with you Caroline, since I was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2020 I have a totally different outlook on life now …. Health is wealth! I live life at a much slower pace these days and cherish the time spent with family and friends but also love those days I spend on my own too enjoying my hobbies. I love to crochet, it’s my passion and I find it so therapeutic and you get to make something beautiful 😊
    Enjoy the next three months, I know I will xx

    Totally agree we race towards the next thing. Christmas for 3 months! Personally I never watch Advent calendar vlogs, they are so boring and are bought by the gullible and are full of things you don't want or need They are generally a rip off. Paying for expensive packaging and promotions for brands. I feel better now I have said that!

    Hi Caroline. You are so right, I think most of us need to stop for a moment and enjoy what we have. My heart goes out to your friend. I lost my son 15 years ago, he was 36. My friends were such a comfort to me, and I'm sure you will be to Faye. Just being there for her, and letting her talk about her daughter, giving her a hug and even sharing a few tears, that's true friendship. Enjoy New York. X

    Yes, try and live in the moment. The only good thing about thinking Christmas now is, you can spread the cost. I think I will be asking family for donations towards my heating bills this year!!🥴. I used to have candles burning in my lounge, but I didn’t realise that they were making a mark on my ceiling, directly underneath were they were burning!! Plus I have read, the fumes they give off are not good for the lungs. Keep on rocking and living in the moment🙏🏻🥰

    Completely agree with you about rushing through to the next thing constantly. It's very overwhelming. I'm definitely trying to live and appreciate the now. Life really is too short. My heart goes out to your best friend and family for their loss, it's so incredibly sad. Thinking of you all. I'm only a few years older and it really does put things into perspective. I suffer with my mental health and sometimes get so overwhelmed with life but I do know how lucky I am. Always tell your loved ones how much you love them and hug them that little bit tighter ❤❤❤ Always love these chats, thanks for sharing your thoughts xxxxx

I’ve enjoyed the last 2weeks in the sun it was glorious to have no work or time pressure. You are so right about slowing down and cherishing your friends and family . We also need to look after ourselves, learn to say no to things without guilt too.

    Absolutely- let’s all enjoy and appreciate the ‘now’. It’s the only time we’re guaranteed. I’m enjoying my slow but steady decluttering- it’s satisfying and rather calming. We have a few short breaks across the country over the next few months and several evenings planned with family. But, in the meantime, I’m just embracing the autumn season - pumpkins, cosy throws and lots of lovely candles. Making a cosy space is very satisfying too. We’ve also just bought a recliner sofa (a Lazyboy! 🤣) which is sooo relaxing in the evenings that it’s hard to stay awake! 🤣🤣. Not turned the heating on yet but it won’t be long I suspect.

    I visited NYC with my oldest granddaughter & her BFF a couple of years ago. We had a wonderful week, we saw the play "Wicked", went over to Ellis Island, visited the Statue of Liberty, Central Park, visited the original Macy's Department store and did a very lot of walking. There is just so much to see & do, it's hard to pin down just a few things. But I think one of my favorite things was walking on Broadway and Times Square, looking at all the bright lights and people watching. We had Birthday dinner in little Italy, which it was very very good Italian food. And we visited Little China town. It was so much fun with 2 teenagers (18 years old).

    Good to hear about your positive plans Caroline, and that you’ve got a lovely holiday and can support your friends. You and Ashley work hard and it’s great to plan family get togethers and relaxing times. As you say, we only have now. I don’t enjoy the hype around Christmas, I find it depressing and I have no family now so I purposely keep positive and enjoy time with my partner and friends but mainly keep the TV off to avoid all the noise. My major plan is to start eBay again as I’ve finished all my bungalow refurb and I’m ready to get selling for Q4. Just a part time thing when I have the energy but I enjoy it. Thanks for sharing with us lot, it’s much appreciated.

You don’t have to stay there to do this, it’s well worth the cocktail.

    Oh wow. You and I are in the exact same frame of mind at the moment. I love Christmas but detest the focus starting so early! My husband and I have just returned from a couple of weeks drive holiday from Adelaide to the NSW Central Coast to visit dear friends and back, exploring our rural country towns along the way. The best thing was the feeling of freedom from any expectations or responsibilities. Just cherishing each day with each other. Was so much fun and enriched our connection with each other even deeper. We still have a couple of weeks before returning to work and it is just so nice to enjoy the comforts of our home together. We are in our early 60s and each day is a gift. You’re so right with not knowing what’s around the corner, so embrace the time we have with those that are most important to us. Couldn’t agree more. 💝

    It's been a difficult time for me over last 2 yrs. Lost my Husband to Asbestosis. I had nursed him nearly 20yrs.took a fair bit of time to slowly adjust and still feel not there yet.so I'm reminding myself that there's no timescale to grief and just go gently on. 15th October I'm getting a new hip and 12vweeks after a new knee on the other side. Arthritis is a devil. Also had gall bladder out this year so feel it's a year of getting me sorted. Like you I would love to increase my activity and flexibility and just spend more time with my 2 children and 7 grandchildren. We have a close family and want to enjoy that. So here's to a more healthy and active time, eventually . Periods of reflection do us good. Xx

    Caroline, I had steroid shots put into my painful knees. I was so fatigued before and now I have energy and less pain. I'm down from an 7-8 pain level to a two level. I'm doing the cleaning I can sit and do and waiting for the 7-10 days when I'll have the full effect from the shots for the more physical stuff. I recommend these shots if your knee pain gets too severe. Life is short, don't just suffer through.

    Our plans for the rest of the year,
    In 2 weeks we board Queen Elizabeth in Sydney Australia and voyage around Australia for 40 nights looking forward to that. Having a quiet Christmas 🌲at home on the farm, then on the 5th January we fly to London to board Queen Victoria and do a full Circumnavigation of South America for 80 nights and voyage back to Southampton. Then fly back to Australia. 20th June we fly back to London with a stop over for a few nights in Doha, we board Queen Mary 2 in Southampton on the 24th for voyage of 45 nights. Live life, enjoy it, and be thankful for family and friends. 🥂🥂🥂

    Amen Sister! 🙂 I have been thinking the same, it's just the endless treadmill of life really. Sometimes you need to put it on slow so you can take a breath. You are so right about embracing what we have in the here and now and not always looking to the next thing, wishing our lives away. Family, love, health, all the most important things can slip to the bottom of the pile if we aren't careful. I will be interested to see how the weight loss goes. I am also low-key hoping to lose a bit of weight and do some good stuff for my health. I have signed up to Gregg Wallace health, which I completely recommend as a brilliant eating plan easy to follow and real, common sense advice. The basic principle is to eat hearty portions of healthy food, three good filling meals a day and no snacking. I have been doing this for two weeks. It feels a bit counter-intuitive to eat so much, but it is starting to work and there's no hunger. I am also a big exerciser though, love my step classes! If you are doing rebounding, wear a decent bra! I almost ended up with two black eyes when I tried this! 😂

    A very interesting chat this morning, Caroline. As you mentioned trying to lose weight, can I suggest you try intermittent fasting? I started this a few weeks ago & as it is working for me, it might be worth a try. I have reduced my meals to 2 a day with a late filling breakfast often based on eggs and then a lovely evening meal. I have never been hungry and have lost 4 lbs. I am aware that eating is often based on habit or boredom. Hope you find a way forward which suits you.

    Hi Caroline, I hope you succeed in your wish to slow down. It is so difficult to achieve! I am on Lake Garda at the moment and just been into Verona where the heavens opened all day! Waste of a day. I am amazed by how quickly October has come this year, and with loss of friends and surprise illness in others, the time racing by feels so precious. As you mentioned, it is having a small amount of goals, and separating what is valuable and precious in your life. My wish is to plan my own holiday periods without waiting for friends to decide and then not go, as last year I considered friends too much who then did other things, and I missed out on doing what I wanted to achieve (I usually book a single room, and they disappear quickly). With increasing age you realise that time and health are not on your side! Spend the time wisely, and all you can be certain of, is now.

      I only ever listen to audio books in the car on long journeys, I enjoy them but find I’m unable to concentrate on them other than when driving

    Great chatty video….I’m looking forward to retiring at the end of October after 49 years of being a civil servant. Although excited I am also surprisingly a bit nervous . Xx

    Not a ramble at all but complete sense. So agree about the media and the retail world rushing us all at top speed to the next occasion, so awful, I try to ignore it all sometimes not successfully. What I would like for the rest of the year is for my husband and me to be pain free!!! He needs a new knee and I have a fractured vertebra, oh the joy but we soldier on!! Take care x

    Once again Caroline thank you for this video. You sound a little melancholy but please be assured it is not a one way street, your followers show that.
    I have had unpleasant health news but I am quite 'que sera' when it comes to most events in life so will just keep on keeping on.
    Though I love warm weather I am glad it is now autumn so can stop getting up each morning wondering if summer has arrived. It didn't so can put away summer clothes and bring out warmer ones. What I do like about the colder weather is the clothes as I love winter fashion.
    Like you I would like to lose weight but one must be in the right frame of mind to do it. Not sure I am.
    Enjoy your week Caroline, be good to yourself.

    Both my daughters live in Dubai and the elder has a 2 1/2 year old and another baby boy due in about a months time so I’m planning a trip there sometime in November so looking forward to that. But I’ll have to start shopping very soon to take Xmas and baby gifts so a lot sooner than I’d like.
    I noticed that M&S have started with Christmas cakes and mince pies etc and I confess we bought a cake🙄. I blame my hubby who loves Xmas food😂. But generally I don’t like the Xmas hype starting too soon. The US is very much like that. Always looking at the next themed holiday.
