New House

Good morning all. 

Well what a difference a few days make with no meds...lots of energy to stay awake all day and considerably better nights sleep! Swollen ankles, headaches and aches and pains all gone too...I feel like a new woman :)

Yesterday was glorious here so I took some time out from cleaning up behind contractors and painting chairs to walk around our new garden and take a few photos. Here is a taster of what we've bought...these were all taken on my phone as my camera is still away being repaired. 

The house from the ground and from above and some of the many garden features.


Views around us...the track being our road into the property.


Some of the many flowers popping up everywhere...hubby was desperate to start "hacking" things down but luckily I managed to persuade him otherwise and we can now enjoy everything as it comes into bloom.


My kitchen is coming together and the painting is ongoing throughout the house so things are beginning to progress in the right direction. I'm feeling much more positive now that my get up and go has caught up with me again!

  15. Glad to hear that you are feeling a lot better Carol and that things are moving along nicely with regard to your new home. The pictures look gorgeous of your surroundings and scenery, that in itself could perk up your spirits just looking out of the window at the beautiful countryside every day. I wish you and your family many happy years there.

  16. How lovely your home is, Carol! It looks like something out of a magazine, found only in Europe! SO GORGEOUS, and those plants flowering so brilliantly are amazing! Thank you so much for sharing your beautiful surroundings.

    Lovely to hear that you are feeling better - medications affect some people differently, but sometimes they must be taken anyway. It's nice to hear you feel a little freedom from the side effects!

    I love that little countdown on your blog! Fabulous idea, and such a wonderful way to keep on top of your Christmas list! hugs, de
