Today has been lovely.
We all got what we asked for.
And we had a delicious festive lunch.
Afterwards, as the weather was being kind, we went on a walk with the dogs.
And now we are relaxing.
Merry Christmas to you and yours xx
This year’s treasure. Dearest Pepperpot looking almost angelic.
And a possible contender …..
As well as the downright failures….
(including the bumhole one!)
Merry Christmas, y’all xxx
Daisy came home yesterday but she didn’t see the sheep as they had already gone out into their field for the day and then straight to bed when it got dark.
So, this morning Daisy came outside to help with the morning chores – it took half the time. All the sheep came up to meet her.
Especially Lambie. He came running, all smiles and got a fuss from Daisy.
And then he deliberately turned and gave me this look! Like I was now redundant as his Muzzah.
Flossie came home later this morning and now my house is beginning to feel Christmassy. It is lovely to have them both home and something I really do appreciate.
The tree is up and the house is decorated. I am happy.
Here is my 2025 Advent Calendar (we haven’t had one for ages so I think it is time).
Click on the appropriate date number and up pops one of my photos. It may take slightly longer to show because it is a larger picture (1280 x 1024 pixels) but it is given with my love free to you for your own personal use.
Thank you for all your support this year. You have no idea just how much it has meant. xx
I will try and add this as a page on the top bar but will probably make a mess of that. If I fail I will just keep doing a link to the appropriate advent window (if I remember, hopefully – no promises!)
My Saturday afternoon is usually spent playing flute duets with Mandy so we went to the Clickimin Craft Fair instead, which is another of our annual traditions. We both like a good craft fair, we do.
Although nicely busy, we wandered easily around looking at all stalls. I did some Christmas shopping, took photographs, saw old friends and generally had a very good time. I had to keep reminding myself I was buying for friends and family and not myself.
I am a bit craft fair’ed out now, read exhausted, so I think I will just leave all these photos here and you can enjoy the craft fair too.
And what I take away from going today, apart from buying Lovely Things, is that the amount of creative talent in Shetland is absolutely outstanding. For such a small place, there is a wealth of innovation and artistry.
Buy local is my Christmas motto (and also I need a cup of tea, please!)
