Evening check in!

Whether your day has been plain sailing or a little stressful,I just wanted to check in with you! Finishing my Evening Routine and “wrapping up my day with a bow” as I like to call it. I don’t always feel like doing my routines but I know my future self will be delighted, knowing that things are taken care of and my mind can rest easy. Plus, I get to relax and fully enjoy my Evening, guilt-free!

Now we’re settling down to watch TV (Champions League football on the telly for hubby, I’ve just discovered the very cozy Great British Sewing Bee) and we’ll have a hot cuppa tea and biscuits later. Nice!

How’s your weather?, Rather nippy these autumn mornings but enjoyed a wonderful dip and bike ride with the Besties.

Plus a very quick cuppa and a chinwag!

Wrap up warm if you’re out early or late in the day!

Have a wonderful evening! Check in with me when you are done!

Thank you for the beautiful hygge evening check in! And also the glimpses of weather where you are. We are rotating between very cool and very humid so it’s hard to predict!!

On holiday in wet and windy Wales. Managed to get lost today so 2 hour walk turned into 4!
Home and dry and snuggled down for the night with a well deserved glass of 🍷

You are in for a treat, with the Sewing Bee – enjoy! I have made the hubby a packed lunch so he doesn’t need to fret in the morning, and now we finish the last bit of the Downton Abbey finale, with hopes to see the final movie soon.

I’ve just discovered the joy of open water swimming – bliss! Water temp is 17 degrees c. currently in Kent, UK.

Really enjoying the evening routine of cleaning the sink and replacing tea towel and dish cloth. Brings a full stop to the end of the day x

Terrific check in Diane! So nice to walk into a clean kitchen in the morning. I’ve been swimming laps in my chilly pool trying to get every last bit of Summer. Love your photos too 😊

Had a lovely walk with the dog. Dinner done and sink cleaned. My clothes are out for tomorrow. Hope to get to sleep on time.

Following routines always makes me feel good. I know what needs to be done and future self always appreciates it. Enjoy your swimming and chats with your good friends ❤️

The weather is definitely cooling here in London and trying to book lots of fun things in the diary to keep myself moving and fall into SAD!

Glad you’ve discovered Sewing Bee – it’s a delight.

Thanks Diane. My evening routine is:
Evening prayers
Lay out clothes for tomorrow
Draw bedroom curtains
Shine sink
Check calendar and forecast for tomorrow.
😊💐🎉

I’ve been sewing this evening – we are putting on Frozen jr – the kids do a great number called ‘Hygge’ and I always think of you! Tonight I’ve mostly been making a bishops outfit (like you do!) 🤣

Despite feeling really tired.. evening routine got done and I was grateful for it this morning. Backing off on zone work this week as life has been extra busy…but the weekly home blessing hour and routines each day keep things good enough!
