Woods

Its my Dads birthday today. He is in Gambia so happy 62nd birthday to my lovely dad faraway.

Christmas is well and truly done in this house. Just messaged my friends and said it feels like it did not happen. Like it was all some sort of dream. I resent the fact I feel like this. I normally feel quite cheery for a while after. I think its a combination of parents being away, Dh having to work, work and work some more, the children breaking us so late for Christmas and therefore going back late.

Anyhoo a trip to the Butchers and the Grocers and Aldi this afternoon and a quick stop off in the woods. I adore adore adore my camera. This is straight out of it and looked a little other worldly compared to others I took.

I tramped through the woods wearing a leopard skin dress, purple cardigan and irregular choice shoes. I decided to dress up a little today and did not factor in the walking in mud bit. I got some funny looks off people just leaving the woods.

I am doing fairly well at being tidier and I am doing OK on the eating less. I am also still drinking green tea which I have discovered I really really like. Damn Aldi for not selling it!!

I have a spag bol on the hob for tea. Its Spag Bol ala Irish (father in law still here) as it has carrots in.
