Typing in here the last day worked wonders for waking up my brain.  I went back to my case studies and wrote loads ( Read more... )

I've been really slow to turn on my computer lately, i'm totally loving knitting.  I really look forward to getting home from work, eating dinner and then going knitting.  If your curious feel free to wander over to Ravelry and have a look at my projects (you'll need to be a member though): Read more... )

The theme for yesterday was most definitely lightning followed closely by thunder.  Our plan for yesterday was to get the tram to Sandia Peak and go for a bit of a stroll around the top, take loads of photos and then get the tram back down the mountain.  Most of our day went according to plan except when we got to the tram station at the top some ( Read more... )

 It's been snowing here yesterday and the night before.  Today the temperatures didn't get above 3 degrees.  Liam and I parked our cars down at the bottom of the hill, it's covered in snow and ice and will be lethal to drive in the morning ( Read more... )

I've been inspired by zarkia  so i'm going to mention my plants.  I repotted the tomato plant and it is now much happier and  working on four tomatoes.  The chilli ( Read more... )

 I love this house.  We have huge windows in our sitting room looking out at Rossbeigh and the mountains beyond.  This morning started off with clear blue skies but as the day has progressed the clouds have steadily built.  At the moment they are heaping on top of each other getting ready for a wild stormy shower.  The wind is quite strong too and ( Read more... )

 It's raining... it's wonderful.  There is not enough rain to influence any rivers but the ground needs a good drinking.  It's been so long since I've seen a full day of rain ( Read more... )

My life since Christmas seems like a blur of acitvity.  I feel like i haven't have a mins rest, that's an exaggeration but i'm sure you'll understand.  I was in Scotland last week, it was amzing and scary and exhausting.  I did love it ( Read more... )
