Restless? Who me? You could say that. I don’t know quite when or where it all began, nor do I know when it will end, but I hope to enjoy it while I can. It’s not as though I don’t have beautiful places to wander to.
It’s sometimes a blessing and sometimes a curse. How is it that some people never have the urge to roam? (my husband being one of them) I only have to see a boat moored up to be champing at the bit. Take me with you!
Debbie set the theme Restless on her One Word Sunday challenge this week. How could I possibly not join in?


You are right Jo, how could you not join in – beautiful. Great to see first thing in the morning.

Jo,

I can so relate to that restlessness, Jo! My Mike, like yours, doesn’t have that urge to wander like I do! However, he does humor me by often being a good natured participant. I think Mick does that too. That’s so good of them, especially considering it’s not in their nature. 🙂

Jo, the theme was meant for you!! I’m the same, always wanting to explore, try new adventures whilst my husband is more laid back, cautious but always willing! Thank you for sharing the beautiful photos, a welcome reminder of the sea, sun and summer after some stormy cold days.😀

Yesterday was an atrocious day, Annika! I couldn’t even watch tennis because it was rained off. 🙂 🙂 Poor me! I bet you’re so sorry for me. Mick never is, and he does kick against it sometimes, but why shouldn’t he? He’s a good-hearted guy.

I didn’t realise you were in a perpetual state of hanker, even though you are restlessjo. I’m a beneficiary, because you have an inexhaustible supply of wonderful things you see – like those slender masts. And the birds with their shadows. And I’m a sucker for daisies too. They’re daisychain daisies. What are the poles? Grateful hugs .
