So granted I’m a few days late, but I’m a busy lass, so Happy New Year!
So I’ve been thinking about 5 things that I’m grateful for over the last year and 5 things I’m looking forward to for the coming year.
I guess firstly I’m grateful for a house to live in. This time last year I [...]

Each year I try and pick up a phrase or picture that helps me focus on something through the year. Sometimes these things are planned and thought hard about and other times it’s only when I’m in the middle of something that a phrase sticks out and I find it useful to cling onto.

These are the first bunch of sweet peas from my new garden.
They smell wonderful! Hopefully there will be plenty more of these and other goodies over the next few months.

Have spent a day out at Alnwick Garden today. Always a good day out but this time fell in love with this in the bamboo maze.

I think only flautists may appreciate the skill involved here. It is amazing though so go look.

One of the weirdest things about being ill is trying to get better. To be honest I’m not sure how much trying is involved. I made the error of going to Church on Sunday (it was Easter Sunday after all). I’m not about to list all the reasons here, but it was a mistake, I [...]
