Well not a good start to the new year weatherwise.
It's cold and thrashing it down with rain.
DD is out in it as she has had to go into work for a few hours. She'll be back just after 3pm so we'll light the fire shortly and get the house nice and warm for her.
Lunch is cooking....pretty much the same meal as last Sunday but we are having chicken today which I prefer to turkey.
It's rather a big one so I am hoping to get a couple more meals out it too.
I am still organising the dining/sewing room and Andy has just put together a CD unit for me that will take my CD storage upwards which will take up less space than the baskets I have them in at the moment. It's starting to look a lot better already although I still have boxes of stuff that were moved upstairs over Christmas to sort through.
No new year resolutions made here....just hope to get through the next year as healthily and happily as we can.
There is hope that Andy will be able to go back to work next month. He is so ready for it and to be honest I am too.....so fingers crossed for that.
Hope you all have the kind of new year that you wish for yourselves.

Happy New Year Sheila. Maybe we will get to meet in 2017! x
ReplyDeleteOh wouldn't that be fabulous?
DeleteI know a gorgeous vintage tea room in the town.
Hugs to you for a fantastic new year at Winters End-x-
Happy New Year Sheila, and to Andy and your family. Hope Andy manages to return to work sooner rather than later, must be frustrating for both of you.
ReplyDeleteJust thinking, has Marlowe recovered from her impetigo and did Ruby manage to avoid it?
Best wishes for 2017. xx
Aww thanks for your good wishes Suzanne.
DeleteWe are a little frustrated now with Andy still being at home. He is so bored and I am ready to get the house back to myself not only to be able to get things done but for my sanity....lol.
Marlowe has recovered from the impetigo thanks to her antibiotics and thanks to very strict hygiene rules by DDIL Ruby managed to avoid catching it so all is good on the Doodle family front thank you.
Hope you are having a lovely day today.
Hugs-x-
We have had a share of your weather, I did manage to get my walks in between the downpours. I am making no resolutions, I intend to carry on crafting and having as much fun as possible.
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping crafting will feature quite a lot here too Pam. Whatever form it takes-x-
DeleteHave a great new year! x
ReplyDeleteThanks Lyssa....you too-x-
DeleteJust catching up so wishing you all a wonderful and healthy 2017. Hope Andy manages to get back to work soon, he really has done well.
ReplyDeleteThanks MM you too.
DeleteYes I am very proud of how Andy has come through this-x-
Happy New Year Shelia, I think the sometimes New Years Resolutions are a bit far fetched, All I want is for my family to be happy and healthy xx
ReplyDeleteThanks Marlene...you too.
DeleteAfter the last few months I think health and happiness are good things to wish for-x-
Happy 2017 to you all and hope it brings health and joy. We have had fantastic weather here today with bright sunshine but crisp and cold. I started prepping fabic today for various projects which I can't wait to start. Catriona
ReplyDelete....and to you too Catriona.
DeleteOh how organised you are to be getting things ready for projects on January 1st. There is quite a bit of work left to do on getting the house back to normal before I can even start-x-
Sheila you are so right it is the only thing that really matters in life. I hope 2017 brings you and your family health and happiness. Jane xx
ReplyDeleteI wish the very same for you too Jane-x-
