We had my equally lovely mother-in-law to stay for a few days last week. The weather, which we had high hopes for, was very bleak and cold so there weren't many outings. We did, however, manage a trip out for lunch to The Lion in Llandinam. And very delicious it was too!!
There have been births, so I have been felting baby booties. It was the first felting I had done for ages and the first resist felting I had tried, so I was quite pleased with the results. On Sunday I am going felting for the day. More on this when I get back!
We have finally (fingers crossed!) sold our old house in England, so we need to move out the rest of our belongings. My husband is there today clearing out the loft. I have no idea what's up there but I suspect lots of wood and model trains - it's a mystery to me how the ceiling has never collapsed. I can't wait, now, to get all the rest of my things into our house in Wales. It feels as if we've been in limbo for ages although it's only been a few months. The problem will be fitting it all in. Anyone want a few hundred books?
The daffodils are out in the garden, shivering away in the cold wind. I have to say it feels as if we will never have any sunny days again. The hills have been shrouded in mist a lot of the time, and even Gwennie hasn't wanted to go out in the garden for a good sniff around, although on walks she has been racing through the woods and across fields with abandon. She has to make the most of it as the lambs will be out in the fields here soon. There are already lots of lambs on the lower lying pastures but as we are higher up, the farmers are wisely keeping them in at the moment. It's March tomorrow. May it come in like a lion and go out as a lamb, as the old saying goes.
