Having a lovely day today. Donal and I are just chilling out on the sofa all wrapped up in his favourite blanket as he's feeling a bit cross.
The day got off to a great start. Donal had a little lie-in and so Chris and I had half a breakfast just the two of us, like the old days, before he woke up. I don't think he was too impressed Chris and I were already having breakfast but we were soon forgiven.
Today I'm going to tackle the Guest room which is mainly a store room at the moment. How well I succeed at that, depends on how cheerful and helpful the young master stays, If that goes well, on goes the wellies and up the field we go to plan how we are going to tackle that. In two years, I'm determined to have chickens, a veg patch, a flower garden, a lovely deck area with barbeque (to help Chris feel less homesick) and just a nice grassy area for Donal to play in and get dirty and maybe a sand pit. First job is to kill the nettles, source the starting point of the blackberry bushes which are just all over the field, then it's getting in and digging up the soil, remove rocks etc.
I wonder how long I'll last before the archaeologist in me comes out and I want to get my trowel out. Imagine the treasures that are hidden in there. I'm going to get my camera out and take photos of the field.
Yesterday, myself and Donal popped into my neighbour's house to meet her 3rd baby. He's so beautiful, I held him for a little while and I forgot how tiny and delicate they are at that age. Donal was amazed by him and I was so impressed with him. Not a bit of jealousy at me holding him, just absolute fascination, he gave him lots of little kisses. So cute.
My mind is buzzing again so it's possible I'll be posting more today but for now it's bye!
Have a great day and enjoy it.
