it's a new dawn, it's a new day...and I'm feeling good..

this beautiful sunrise made being up at six this morning more worth while!

Comfort and warmth.

Well it looks like the Indian summer has come to an end, so roll out the cupcakes for comfort and the fire for warmth! 

I have a feeling that I am running just to stand still at the moment, but I am sure things will fall into place soon! 

Indian summer
It's hard to believe that we were warming ourselves by the fire at the weekend as we seem to be having an indian summer today! Not that I am complaining, I have caught up on some of the back log of washing and it is drying beautifully in the garden.

Autumn

This summer has been interesting and surprisingly laid back. The family are all finding their way nicely now, so it is time to start thinking about focusing on myself again. I am looking forward to a study day and tutorial next week, with all the challenges of preparing for, getting to and doing!

Reflecting on my journey so far, I wonder where the road will take me next?
I was so sure when I was 18 that I knew what I wanted and how to get it, rare at that age. Now I feel like I maybe should have done back then, unsure of what I want and where I am heading, but I am trying to go with the flow! 

Knitting

I have really enjoyed getting back to knitting recently, very therapeutic.

My first time!

Well I have no idea where this is going to take me, but felt inspired to have a go!

The other morning the garden was teeming with birds, I got the camera out...There were blackbirds, a magpie, a robin, blue tits, a nuthatch and this one...any idea what it is?
