Raindrops and Daisies: Candles

I went back to work this week and so life is back to normal

well as normal as can be!!!

Doesn't time fly, it's like Christmas never happened!

This week we have had lovely frosty mornings and lovely evening skies...

I miss all my lovely Christmas decorations but the house still looks Christmassy as

I have decided to keep the twinkly fairy lights on my kitchen cabinet
as they brighten the dark mornings and make me smile when I'm drinking my cuppa at 6am

and
I threw some of them into a large glass jar after seeing something similar on
Vicki's blog don't they look pretty?

the little cream poinsettia is still flourishing

so I'm hoping it keeps going for another couple of weeks

and of course it is nice to sit down and enjoy candlelight

and a glass of the red stuff occasionally

But I have been out for a few walks over the last week and can honestly say I feel better for them.

I took these two scallywags with me...

Oscar loves it but Charlie is a bit lazy (a bit like myself) but he could do with losing a few pounds too!

Buys this week...

No further knitting done (oopsie)!!
but I did buy this lovely magazine which cost less than 2 euro
and which included a free set of knitting needles and 2 balls of wool
now that's good value!!
So you never know maybe next week I will have produced something!!

and while out and about I saw this dress (I love the colours)
it was 27 euro in Carraig Donn and the boots were less than 70 euro in Clarks
I will get lots of wear from both of them so happy days!
