Furry Friends........

Good Morning Readers
Hope you are all well on this dismal Monday morning, the rain has returned and so has the wind ...... it was so nice to have a couple of rain free day's made me think that Spring was on it's way at last, how wrong was I..... anyhoo, I am sitting at home waiting for a phone call to let me know when my Tumble Dryer will be delivered ,so hubby bless him went up the stables to sort the boy out again for me, so I have been busy doing..... nothing this morning, to while away the time I have done some chores and tend to tackle some of my craft studio this morning, one of the things I did  try and do, was to tidy up the rabble's toy box..... but as fast as I was tiding them Toby was getting them out again, he thought it was a good game ..... me not so much, his brother Chumleigh was lying on the sofa with Queen Smarty Pants not at all amused by this frivolity ..... I did however manage to get a photo of Toby which is so endearing I just had to do a layout for it, and of course I also had to buy a new digi kit for the occasion which is called Furry Friends .......

Oops ......

Good Afternoon readers,
I hope you are enjoying what is left of the weekend ...... the weather here in my little corner of Cornwall has been lovely today, quite a contrast from what we have had, although a bit on the nippy side the sun has been shining for most of the day, I did have to de-ice my truck windows this morning, but all in all a nice day, went up the yard as per usual this morning, ran the rabble, then put Ace out who resembled Zebade from the magic roundabout, he bounced down the lane this morning, like he had springs on all four of his feet, and as soon as his feet hit the fields he took of like a race horse, kicking and bucking around the field, it was a mixture of being stabled for two days, and the crisp air ...... but when I left he was munching, apart from going up the yard, have not really done much, have played around in my Craft Studio doing behind the scenes projects for my Challenge Blogs, then just happened to go over to Daisy Trail, Oops ..... and purchased a new digi kit ..... yes I now I said I would not buy anymore until the end of the month, but, I just had to have this one ......  I wanted to capture one of the photo's I took when we had some great waves at Portreath Beach, and this digi kit was ideal...

Good Morning Readers,
Hope you are all enjoying the weekend......, I have not been up the yard this morning hubby went up instead to sort the boy out, I have been waiting for a new Tumble Dryer to be delivered, but have just had a phone call to say it will not be here till Monday, due to the weather it is still at the depot in Wigan, which is a bit of a pain, but hardly the end of the world !!!!!! the most embarrassing  thing is that I use my tumble dryer a lot as I do not do ironing,  so you can imagine I how I felt when I had to ring Hubby at work and ask were the iron was, and did we even have one, I'm sure I could hear hubby chuckle to himself down the phone...... anyhoo found said iron hiding in the back of a cupboard, have been able to hang some washing on the line this morning, as it is not bad weather,  for how long it will be out there who 
know's !!!!, well how many of you were romanced yesterday what with it being Valentine's Day and all, were you wined and dined, flowers and choccies ..... I had none of the above, but Hubby is never one to fail me, and gave me a bottle of Samsara Perfume last night, he knows I have a penchant for expensive perfume,
So I am off out to reciprocate, and get Hubby a little something ......not sure what, as he is not the easiest to buy for, but I am sure I can find something with his name on.....

Good Afternoon Readers,

I hope you are all well and safe, from this terrible weather we are having at the moment, once again in my little corner of Cornwall we have strong winds and heavy rain, was up with the lark's again this morning, to go up the yard as per usual to sort out a rather bad tempered horse..... I think he thought he was going out, but he thought wrong, the weather was to bad so I took a rather sulky horse in to the indoor school and rode him, much to his disgust,  I had no sooner untacked him, and I was back up on to Cyril, so my legs at the moment are a bit on the sore side, and I am beginning to resemble John Wayne in the way I walk...... 1¾ hours of hard riding is a bit to much for me , I can manage an hour...... just. On the way home I could not resist popping in to my Fav charity shop, and came away with another carrier bag full for a £1.00, and popped in to the childrens bit and picked up 3 soft toys for the rabble..... then dashed on home to find my Valentine Flowers and Chocolates ....... only to find nothing, searched the house (slight exaggeration) still nothing, it is Valentine's Day today isn't it, I haven't got the date wrong have I !!!! maybe hubby will surprise me later ...... but hang on I haven't got him anything either, oh dear hopefully he will not twig what the day is, and totally be oblivious of the hearts and roses, smack bang in the entrance of Asda when he goes shopping later, 
just like I did !!!!!!!!!
