Looking forward to the next few months?

I don’t look forward to much anymore tbh.
I feel ( at 59 ) that the best is over.
And that’s not me being morbid or unhappy, I just don’t feel the same about life as I did when I was younger.
My children are all adults now with their own lives. I used to love planning for them, ( us ) now it’s just me & dh it’s quite often boring.
life is good, but there’s no hunger to achieve anything if you know what I mean.
We’ve done it all.
But I am looking forward to warmer weather 😊

Going to Crufts in March with DD2. Missed several years due to DH’s illness and Covid. Lots of doggy hugging and a couple of nights in a swish hotel - only hope the weather is kind for our drive there and back.
Got rid of my decking this time last year Grandyma and very pleased with the Indian stone that replaced it.

I'm going to see The King and I at the theatre with my daughter and granddaughter in March. Also they are taking me for a meal for Mother's Day. Going with DD to see Matt Goss (just to keep her company grin ) and we have tickets for James Martin Live in October. Quite a lot really.

I’m very much looking forward to having a new patio laid in place of the old decking. The weather being warm enough to enjoy sitting on it with a book

I used to enjoy trips away but now with all the life changes -
The COVID years and climate change, I find I'm more enjoying being at home and have little to no intention of seeing 'the world'.

Error... In view of the excellent thread.....

In view an the excellent thread about us often looking backwards, let's have a thread about looking forwards then.
So, have you anything planned for the next few months?
Would you like to achieve something? Go somewhere?
Learn something new? Meet someone new?
Anything, as long as it involves looking forwards.
I would certainly like to travel somewhere new and hope I achieve that at least.
