The start of a new year and all it will bring, none of which we know, but we hope will be if not wonderful, at least lovely.
So the Christmas decorations are all down, packed away and back in the loft of the extension. Apart from my large fabric Snowman, who needs to spend the non festive period wrapped up in a plastic bin bag. Since it appears mice have been in the extension roof! , he needs to go up into the main loft for safety. While the mouse's route into the roof is found and dealt with , along with any coming in. But that will have to be a job for when the weather warms up.
The year has arrived along with a really cold snap of weather. Above us in the north it's been snowing and also over to the east. We have only got the really cold weather but no snow, which suits be fine. Although I do like how snow makes everything look , I don't like the fact it can be dicey to try and drive in it.
I may not leave the house for a week but then if were to snow really badly, I will feel the need to be out and about within a couple of days? I don't feel trapped , I just seem to decide that now I want to go out ! Strange !
I say all the decorations are down, I still have to change the Christmas China off the dresser and also put the small dresser back in the doll studio and that also needs to be 'changed' china too. A job for later today, Sunday.
Yesterday, Saturday, there was a super moon, the last for a while.
I took this photo using my camera around 4.35 pm
Lindsey took this one just before me, using her phone. I tried taking a closer photo but despite my camera appearing to be steady, it was jumping about all over the place ! That's the problem with being old ! Although you don't think there is any shake in your hands , there obviously is ! So I have shown Lindsey's.
I don't do new years resolutions any more, since they never happen and are almost like a goal in the opposite direction to what I have put ! No dolls, six then turn up within a month or two etc .
So I will stick with making lists, I do so love a list ! lol, and seeing how many things I have managed to cross off by the end of the year , even better if I lose the list and it turns up a couple of years later and I can cross off half a dozen things that have been done over the missing period.
So tomorrow is the fifth and I am pleased to say I have already been sent the first photo for this years offering. I need to take a couple myself to add , so at least there will be a few to see.
The photo headline is another Sasha who moved many years ago to a new home, I know I know, what can I say I find beautiful dolls then pass them on. . . . . . it's a service to others . . . . .
So have a lovely healthy week ahead, make sure to spend some time with the dolls, even if just to stand and enjoy looking at one for a few minutes.
