walks

a much better week….. mostly!

4 Comments

Well, we are pretty much one week into February (already?!) and thankfully I think we are all feeling much better for it in our neck of the woods.

We have had some negatives this week:-

  • I’ve had a headache almost every day to accompany my stuffy nose, I’m pretty sure it’s my allergies acting up.
  • Myself and Emma still haven’t managed to get rid of our coughs from our original colds at the start of Jan, but they are much improved mercifully.
  • Biggest negative of this week has to be our car though. We popped it in the garage for a full service to find it needs more work doing than we can easily afford and long story short by the end of March we will be adjusting our lifestyle to be without a car for a number of months while saving for a new one.

But mostly the days have been good, homely, family oriented days. Full of cosy, happy, lovely things. So here is some of what has made me smile this week…

Emmas car::: The day our car went to pot, we took Emma out in her car instead. She is just too cute in her little VW.

park feb 14::: A family trip to the play park, the windiest park ever. It is on top of the hill on which we live, over looking the sea front. With the current weather in the UK, it was…. refreshing!

Yes, I have a much better more positive feeling about February. Thank the Lord!

I hope your February has started well and you are not being too badly affected by the crazy weather!

House Keeping Notes
As you may have noticed I have updated the look of the blog (thanks to my dear hubby’s design work) and will be tweaking things over the next week, so I apologise if you stop by and things are looking a bit wonky. I have updated the navigation bar at the top, Little Kitchen has been much neglected and so removed and encompassed under Lovely Little Home. I have also given my crochet related posts a dedicated space and link at the top under Lovely Little Crochet.
I am also about to update my shop and give it much more time and attention but I’ll talk more about that another time.

an overdue update & an early evening walk

Hello, remember me?!

I can’t believe it’s been a whole month since I last posted! I do not know where it has disappeared! I didn’t realise I had been that busy!

I guess I haven’t been home as much as I usually am just recently?! Emma has also just started to miss out her daytime nap most days now, I hadn’t noticed how much I relied on those 2 hours to get things done around here… blogging included! But I will adjust!

So I just thought I’d drop by today and share a few photos I snapped on my phone yesterday evening. We were in need of some fresh air and a little exercise so we decided to take a little walk through the park as the sun was going down.
