Happy New Year

The old year ended on a sad note as I had to let the hens go to a friend, I just couldnt manage them anymore. The weather is looking up a bit and after a pleasant quiet Christmas with my daughter and granddaughters, I am hoping to end my nomadic existance and settle down to kick starting some kind of life on my own. I plan to finish the quilting on the cottage gardens quilt. Happy New Year everyone, may all your dreams come true.

difficult times

A big thank you to all my cyber quilting friends who sent their kind wishes and thoughts following my previous post. The weather has conspired  to mirror my feelings by sending early sustained and heavy snowfall coupled with sub zero temperatures. I am finding it increasingly difficult to stay positive and very hard to dig out the hens and coal bunker daily. I hope the oil and coal deliveries manage to make it through this week and that I can get to the grocery shop!!  At 5 miles away it's too far to walk but the ploughs havent been up so we have white roads! heigh ho!!
