Hopeful Holiday

I have a weeks annual leave and there are so many things I want to do but my week just does not seem long enough! Having just finished a three night stint, I feel the first day is for a quick nap (though I can not sleep away my holidays)

So I've decided to make a list of things to do with my week:
Spend some time with my youngest daughter while she is home from uni  (and not out at work)
Visiting my other daughter who lives 30 minutes drive away (this also so means I get to see my gorgeous grandchildren too).
I really must decorate my bedroom and it is best done while my lovely man is at work but he does have to help move the furniture first!
Get back into my exercise routine, before I did these nights I had been doing a lot of walking (that is for another blog I think)
Maybe I can also catch up on a little reading as well.

Well that is about all I may or may not fit in for the week! I'll hopefully get to spend time on my blog too, oh and I almost forgot we have a double birthday celebration with family at the weekend, a lovely week to look forward to!

I hope you all have a good week too!

Quiet Sunday?

Well that was my first idea anyway, relax on Easter Sunday with no driving as I had driven back from Wales the day before. I got up thinking what am I going to do today? My eldest daughter rang up and asked what I had planned, 'nothing' says I. She thought it would be nice to spend the day together and how right she was.

What a lovely day, my family together, apart from my son who spent the day with his girlfriend and her  family. My two gorgeous grandchildren, my two equally gorgeous daughters, the son in law and my wonderful husband Chris (who did all the clearing away of the rather large dinner we had and then vacuumed at the end of the day) What a great way to spend Easter Sunday?

Hope everyone had a good Easter too.

Breaking the Ice


Hello, I thought I would break the ice of my first blog post with a few pictures from my first visit to Wales on Good Friday. We (my husband and I) went to visit a friend who had moved up there before Christmas, and also to pick up our youngest daughter from Cardiff. My friend and her partner have bought a house very near to the Brekon Beacons, whilst Cornwall is a beautiful county, Wales has a different beauty (I do have to say Cornwall is a lot warmer!) My friend and I went for a walk well wrapped up, the wind was absolutely freezing but the walk was enjoyable, the ponies were very friendly and everywhere you looked there were sheep. My husband and I had a lovely time but we were also looking forward to picking up our daughter who we hadn't seen since she went back to uni after Christmas. After a quick stroll around Cardiff we headed back to Cornwall for a good nights sleep!


                                      These are just a few of the photos I took on our walk.
