Garden Smiles On A Crisp Winter Morning...

Hi Honeys
I thought I'd share a smile this morning...

We've had dull grey skies for so long now I was starting to forget how beautiful blue skies can be :)  It really does feel so, so long since I could open the curtains and see this...

So long in fact that it made me ridiculously happy just to see it :) Now if it wasn't so bitterly cold I would have the washing machine on as we speak and would have been hanging out laundry as soon as it got light outside :)


Alas though it's just not warm enough for that yet, but the washing machine did go on as it does almost every morning and I just feel so grateful that we have our pulley in the kitchen.  Is electricity eye wateringly expensive everywhere or is it just in the UK?  It's gotten so that it's simply too expensive to use the dryer anymore, especially in Winter when the heating is on almost constantly :/

On a brighter note, while I was snapping these photos to share we had a beautiful garden visitor...

Can you see him? He is a gorgeous wood pigeon. One of my favourite wild birds.  You can just spot him sitting in the still bare Winter trees...

 I was going through some photos and found a photo of these same trees behind our house from a couple of winters ago, all covered in snow. It made me smile so I thought I'd share...

There's something about snow that makes everything look beautiful doesn't it?  If only it didn't have to be so cold, not to mention slippy on the ice.   Whatever you're doing today honeys, I hope you're having fun and smiling loads :) Stay warm and safe everyone, till next time, huggles always xxx
