Hello and welcome to Word of the Week!
If you’re new here, Word of the Week is a nice and simple weekly linky, with everyone welcome to pop by and share. You reflect back on the past week and sum it up in one word. Then share your word with us in a blog post, with as little or as much explanation as you like. It’s a fun and friendly linky, so please do be lovely and visit as many of the other blogs as you can and share with them your thoughts on their words and weeks. I do comment on every entry to the linky, and if you add the Word of the Week badge to your post to help spread the ‘word’, I also tweet them out.
My word of the week this week is:
During January, I was pretty much hibernating. I’d get out for the school runs, then I’d be back home either working or studying, or if Little Man was with me, we’d be playing at home and having reading/movie afternoons, snuggled up. But not now, not now spring is in the air!
This week has seen us all being very sociable, and it’s felt like a huge departure from last month. The Husband’s been out to the cinema with his best mate, something they’ve not done in absolutely ages. I have had two play dates with Little Man and I have managed to catch up with a couple of good friends, as well as organising get togethers with others in the next week or so and for half term. Then Boo’s been out to a friend’s for tea after school, the first teatime get together for her this year. To have gone from only really chatting on school runs to having company every day of this week feels significantly different to me!
I’m now feeling all refreshed and friendly, so it seems spring must be coming and hibernation is over!
What about you? What one word sums up your week best?
Please grab the badge, link up and share.
Linky opens at 6.30am Friday, to midnight on Sunday.
It sounds like you have all had fun this week with your friends. It’s so nice to make friends through your children I’ve met some great mums from school.
It’s been lovely, really broken the hibernation!
Being sociable is always good, I’m not sure about Spring though, it looked like it might be around the corner at one point but today it’s so cold and I can see a kind of sleet-like snow outside my window as I write…brrr, let’s hope it passes quickly.
Oh, I know, it’s freezing today!
Lovely word to sum up your week! We’re glad that Spring is on the way too.
Enjoy your half term x
I do love spring! x
There has been a definite shift in the seasons. I’m out of hibernation too. You all sound like you’ve had lots of fun, social time. What a nice week.
It’s nice to emerge!
I think I must be part bear because I do love to hibernate during the winter months. But spring is in the air here as well (the forecast is for a high of 21 C today) and I was thinking that it might be time to dust of my trainers and hit the trail for a bit of fresh air and exercise. Have a great weekend! #WotW
Sounds like a plan!

That sounds like a lovely week 🙂 I however am still hibernating! LOL!
It’s always tempting!
It’s nice when a week feels so much better. I think having some good social interaction can be key for many of us!!

Sounds a good week and being more sociable is always a good sign that the season’s are turning. Thanks for hosting x
It has been, thanks x
It’s so nice to be out and about again, isn’t it? No more hibernating! thanks for hosting #wotw
It is, thanks!
Sounds like a lovely week, I love being out and about and sociable. I start to get a bit tetchy if I don’t get out and about enough x
Yes, it’s amazing the difference it makes x
Winters certainly were made for hibernating. Nature certainly seems like its suggesting Spring is on the way.
I do hope so.
I’m with you; I think Spring is just around the corner and I’ve seen lots of daffs recently too – always a good sign!
It’s lovely that you’ve been able to make friends via the school run – and real friends you can chat to and have company. Often the way, tho, you have weeks of nothing and then everything happens in one go!
