And So...

Life can be a bit of a bugger sometimes can't it.

Well that's how it's been around these parts lately.

Last Tuesday our neighbour accepted a new offer on the house

And so dreams have been dashed.

A heavily pregnant daughter has been consoled.

I am without a doubt absolutely exhausted...

And not one mince pie even made yet!

We can half-heartedly hope

That the new sale will fall through...

After all our daughters' did

But if it doesn't daughter and son in law have decided

To install themselves a wood-burner in their current home.

And breathe!

This week I have time off from work.

In theory this will mean time for me to catch up on paperwork...

In reality today has largely been spent in a sleep deprived stupor...

A storm raged around us last night

Things crashed and banged...

And Heidi was scared...

I ended up on the sofa...at 3 in the morning...

Then just past seven hubby came down and made me get up

We were taking our upstairs doors to be dipped and stripped.

Oh joy!

Tomorrow is Henry day...with the dentist thrown in for good measure.

Wednesday is get a tree morning...

Followed by a Henry afternoon...

And from Thursday onwards we have family time planned.

I need to find pins to pin the smile to my face...

Only joking!

One day I promise I will get the up to date photos uploaded

And share a few...

But tonight I need my bed.
