Little by little

I have had a busy 2 weeks!....
We all caught very bad flu,teething baby and my daughter had a 'Adenoidectomy' operation,so.......nourished mama.....well she lost her way a bit!
But I am back ......and determined, ....too many biscuits eaten and not enough exercise...


I finally started to knit!It took me about 15 minutes to figure out how to cast on, but it all came flooding back from my school days....and I have now knitted about 5 rows!! Kids were amazed to see mummy 'making' something, they were waiting for the scarf to appear...it's going to take a while ......a long while... I said!!
The 'To do' list has come out too. I need to set my goals big and small.......this year I would like there to be change and progress......

All good work is done the way ants do things, little by little. Lafcadio Hearn

God grant me the serenity to accept the people I cannot change, the courage to change the one I can, and the wisdom to know it's me. Unknown

I am dreaming of ........ a simple home in the sun, a growing friendship, a happy family,a deeper faith, a healthier body, being creative and resourceful ,to inspire and be inspired,to give more,contemplate more,appreciate more........

may the year ahead be the stepping stones to the things we yearn for........


Now...onto my home treats....
I attempted to do the sales!! It was just too hectic, so I treated myself to some online treats....this one arrived today.......

a hanging Moroccan star lantern!..Waiting for husband to come home to help me hang it.I do like making my home pretty....

Thought for the day:

Fear less, hope more. Eat less, chew more. Whine less, breathe more. Talk less, say more. Hate less, love more . . . And all good things are yours.
