Around the Home

My how the wind blew

Spring is here

I heart stripes, checks and pokadots all in the same place..

I heart life

A place to bring up the young.

Too much chocolate

Look, iv managed to catch the Robin singing in the Elder!

New kitchen flooring, YAY!!!.....Its been a while since i really posted a post, but then i do have a habit of doing this. I have all the great intentions of writing daily, then life takes over an i find that i have not been online for weeks let alone write for the blogs that i do have.. Summers on her way and iv been really busy with the garden and getting the seeds all ready and potted for when the frosts are all over and i can start putting the young vegetables out. Yesterday i managed to get hold of a Blueberry plant at my local Asdas, so that's put a smile on my face.

Iv been feeling a lot better these past few months, the medication has finally kicked in, although i still do get the odd panic attack but i can handle them now with the breathing and I'm finally coming to terms with being 40. Summers coming and I'm feeling good, need to stop eating all that chocolate though or I'm gonna put on weight, but working out keeps it all in balance, but iv eat a lot of chocolate today! Heheheheheheheh..

I have a teenage son!

Sage, Happy 13th babe, have a wonderful day..

Spring Equinox arrives

As the Spring Equinox arrives, the earth is slowly awaken from her slumber. Been really busy in the garden, sowing seeds into their trays and kept warm while we await to be frost free here in the South West of the UK, but the gardens all tidy and all pruned ready and waiting. Been enjoying the wonderful Spring weather we have been blessed with and i watch the garden birds gathering their nest material and settling down in their new homes.

Castwithin

This is Smudge, hes almost 13 years old and we have had him for all those years, hes getting a little slower and pretends to be deaf when it suits him, but is still looking good for his age.

Kits just getting his daily fussing here, how can you not love him!

Just a little view from the Kitchen window. Daffs are now planted out in the garden. I buy a pot every Imbolc and then re plant them in the garden to enjoy the follow years.

Snowflake wishes

Wow, what a weekend last week was, iv seen this amount of snow in the Forest in my childhood but never while living in the City, it was amazing to see. This is the view from my sons bedroom window, i spend hours in here sometimes just watching the birds.

Kits got the right idea, time to just chill out and hibernate

On the way to my friends house we go through the grounds of Gloucester Cathedral and this is just one of the houses that catches my eye every time, this house is right in front of the Cathedral, imagine waking up to that each morning! Also many of you might have seen the Christmas special of Doctor Who, this was filmed in this area and i have some more pictures that i will show next time, so keep an eye out for that.

Imbolc blessings and Snow flakes

We have snow and lots of it and theres still more to come! London has loads of it and its almost like seeing London as an Victorian Christmas Card, now that's a sight to behold. Here in the West we don't seem to have as much, but it has been snowing all day and they say we have more to come.

Wishing you all a wonderful Imbolc Festival...

Sage's Work

Sage drew these two pictures in 2008, but we have only just taken a picture and uploaded onto the internet. How cool are they? He is a wonderful artist and i wish he would spend more time drawing and painting, but you know what teenagers are like!..

I would like to introduce you

This is Taliesin but we call him Kitkit and he prefers that. He is 4 years old this year and the most loving cat i have ever had the honor to share my life with he is so special is so many ways and brightens each and every day, Kitkit we love yo so much, but then you know that don't you!

Greeting the Dawn

Good morning world. This picture was taken at my back door round about 7 in the morning.. The tree to the left is a Holly and Spring will see the Blackbirds reclaiming their nests within.

How cold?

We had our first snow fall the other day, i was a little late getting outside to take the photo, but we had a light dusting of snow. Days are getting longer now and the big freeze we've had over the past few weeks seems to be drifting away. The weathers a little milder and wetter, but I'm sure we will see more snow and frost before Spring arrives in a couple of months. This milder weather has allowed me to get into the garden to give it a good tidy up and to clean out the Bird table and feeders, so that's all done. While out there at the weekend i was lucky to have a visit from two robins, unfortunately i didn't have my camera with me, but i will make sure i have it next time!

The bareness of it all...

This picture was taken two days ago in my back garden. I have a thing for trees in the winter, especially ones that are holding birds nests, its the only time in the year when you can really have a good look at some of the nests. In the tree you will see my local Blackbird, and to the left of him, is the nest him and his partner used last year to bring up a second brood of baby blackbirds. Lets hope they come back to re use it this Spring~..

Guess what i got for Christmas...

Yay, my picture has come out. I took this on the way home from the Cinema during the week, so expect more pictures to come.

Happy new year...

It's Christmas Eve~...

Happy Yuletide to one and all~..

Wishing you all a very Happy Yuletide, now the Festival can really get started!

Have fun and keep safe and may all your hopes and dreams come togeather in 2009~...

Blessings to you all~..

ECG results are in...

And they are fine!!!! YAY!! Thats a weight of my shoulders now i can really start to enjoy the festive season..

There is a light at the end of the tunnel!

Iv been feeling a lot better these past few days and so far, touch wood, iv been free from a power surge for the past four days, gets a little dodgy in the evening but nothing like the past month!

Winter has come to the shores of the UK, but not here in Gloucester, which is a shame, I'm sure the Coltswolds have had a light dusting, and its times like this when i do miss the car.. Most of the North has been covered in quite a bit of snow and although its pretty i do hope everyone is safe and the Homeless have somewhere to go to get warm food and blankets..
