Tuesday 27th February 2018

We woke up to snow and falling quite heavily. We were the first out down our road and I don’t think many people will be attempting it today and certainly not the dustmen! It does all look very pretty!

Ellie wasn’t too sure to begin with and then decided she loved it and kept rolling in it!! We took her for a walk and poor thing had icicles hanging for her feathers and in between her pads by the time we arrived home but she loved it!

She also liked playing snowballs and caught this one!

We waited until the afternoon until a little of the snow had thawed as we had to go and post birthday presents for the twins. As we had made the effort to get out, we also went to the skip place to load up with more wood. I managed to get an enormous splinter in my finger, it was about half an inch long when I tweezered it out when I was home! At least I pulled it all out.

The rest of the day was spent keeping warm by the log burner.

Oh, I forgot to mention…..we exchanged contracts yesterday!! Mal has told the estate agent to go and turn the heat on so it doesn’t freeze. We have now insured it just in case…well, they are hopeless estate agents!

Thought for the Day – “All of us could learn something from the weather. It pays no attention to criticism.”
