Moominland!
It's so, so quiet out there! It's eerie.
I've got to get 45l of paint up a hill today 🙈
It is me, firing 60009 at the ELR. I will name them as I'm not afraid of them, unlike them who try to act like I never existed because they're so scared of me 😅

The stuff I was told to do & had to experience over the years was horrendous. I had 1 consultant tell me to cut my own womb out with a knife.

This time of year can be particularly tough for some.
Remember, there's help out there ❤️
This little Bulldog shovel, entrusted to me 9 years ago from the best trainer/Footplate mate I know has got me through some shakey times. Entrusted to me when I was a trainee as I was about to give up because I doubted myself
It's been off for some TLC,its back now, with a nice new tip to the blade
Double hot chocolate for a Sunday night before the madness of the month ends begin tomorrow

Lovely sunrise this morning, I think it's a work from home day today as I'm feeling a tad under the weather again from doing too much. Running your own business & managing a full house renovation keeps you very busy!

It's snowing, it's cold, it's time for these bad boys to come out!
#SexyKneeSocks
This is why Autumn is my favourite time of year. The colours change, the air is fresh and rainbows come along to make you stop, look, smile, and lift your spirit.🌈🍂
#ViewsOvertheHill
Relaxation after a hard day's house renovating is lying in bed listening to the wind and rain howl around the chimney.
Round 2 tomorrow.
Oh dear, poor Fox!

Some more wood to admire.
Started sanding the bannister...it's going to look beautiful when it's done 👍
Stripping this was almost as painful as stripping the stairs! Look at the detail though...😍

I've not been feeling right well for a few months, today being a rough one, the best place for me tonight is wrapped up with my #YogiTea, trying to take inspiration from #ThisLifeIsAGift

45 years ago today, my nan very suddenly passed away. She was just 49 years old, just a year older than what I am now.Sadly I don't remember her as I was only 2 years old. The fact that she was only 1 year older than me when she left us has played on my mind today.Family memories are funny things.
