September Calendar

Family Life: Month in Review - September 2014

Some quick facts for September:

  • It is the ninth month of the year in the Julian and Gregorian Calendars and one of four months lasting 30 days.

  • September in the Northern Hemisphere is the seasonal equivalent of March in the Southern Hemisphere. Autumn begins on September 1st.

  • September's birthstone is the sapphire, and the birth flowers are the forget-me-not, morning glory and aster. 

  • The zodiac signs for the month of September are Virgo (until September 21) and Libra (from September 22 onwards). I celebrate my birthday in September.

My younger sister celebrated her 30th Birthday, and on the same day, my brother and his wife celebrated their 2nd wedding anniversary. We went out for a meal together, minus the kids, which was nice. We had a great laugh and got together with my sister, brothers, and parents.

School—Jacob started reception and full-time school. Lewis moved up to secondary school, and Liam returned to school as usual. I got Summer signed up and started her in nursery three mornings a week, and she loves it.

My 36th Birthday is the week I am now on the wrong side of 30. :-( The countdown to 40 commences, but is 40 so bad? No, I don't think so (I am trying to convince myself of that). Isn't the old phrase, life starts at 40, so what am I so worried about, huh?  

What did I do on my birthday, I went out to a lovely restaurant (Commodore on the broads) with my friends, one of which is my best friend of 34 years. Lovely view out to the broads, lovely food, great friends, and great wine..

My auntie announced that she is adopting a little boy who is 10 months old. He will be my first cousin (how cool is that? I am 36 and finally got a cousin) and my mum's first nephew. We are all super excited. Unfortunately, we don't get to see my Auntie very often at all, as she lives up North, but hopefully, we will soon get to meet the little man.

Work - I started my training for my new position within the company I have worked for for the past 6 years. As I move onto the international team, I am training to become an International Project Manager and run global projects. I have worked only on a national team for the past few years and am both excited and nervous.
