So I knew I was going to have to do it eventually, but it was still as big of a pain in the butt as I remembered. I had to take all 6 animals to the vet to get their health certificates for the flight. I had to do this with the pets 3 times …

6:30am Milo the insane cat wakes me up with scratching and meowing at the bedroom door. She is definitely freaked out by this move. Hopefully the movers will be able to clear the spare bedroom completely today so that I could open up the attic for her to go up into. The attic is her …
Yesterday I got the word that it was time to go get some fleeces that I have been watching for the past two years (at very high speeds as I drove by!). I thought that they were Hebridean sheep but I found out that they were Black Welch Mountain sheep instead. I think I can …
We live in a lovely place that gives us the opportunity to take our dogs for a walk every day in wonderful field up the road. Every day I see things that I wish I were a better photographer to be able to capture. Today was the swallows. They may have been back for a …

1.)These were the top search terms to find my blog this past week: brenda dayne, alpakka yarn tampon, sarah mengel knitting, london trafalgar square empty plinth, woman knitting I especially like the alpakka yarn tampon one. Does make one think though. I mean, if they now have cashmere toilet paper at Waitrose…. 2.) I’m really …
So, to elaborate on the last post a bit… I got a job. It doesn’t pay well and the 3 days a week that I work take a day (at least) to recover from. I’m on my feet all day in (cue evil music here) dress shoes. I don’t mind being on my feet a …
