Project 365 week 1 1st- 3rd Jan

Well here we go again, another year of sharing the highs and lows, the interesting and the boring that is my life. This is me now into year four, having already shared one thousand and ninety six pictures with you it seems a shame to stop now.

A quick mention for all the new 365'ers that are joining in this year. I mainly share Fifi (12) though she is getting less and less now. Bob (8) and Minky and Dinky the boy/girl twins at thirteen months.

So here we go.

1st Jan

Gosh it is miserable, my poor chickens are beginning to grow webbed feet outside, had planned on going out with the kids today to make a Country kids post but its just way to wet and miserable. So when I popped over to pick Bob up there was a mad half hour going on in the house. Bob and Minky were playing tickle with the feather duster and Dinky was playing peek a boo while leaning on daddy. Fifi was lying on the couch where up until we went in Minky had been asleep on top of her.

the madhouse that is my daughters. 



2nd Jan

Had to nip into town to change over a pair of trousers to a larger size, and as we had been cooped up most of the day yesterday decided to go for a walk along the river while we were there.A good test against the wind for my new jacket.  There has been one cache that has avoided my detection since I first started looking last March. It is normally a very busy area making hunting discretely difficult,  but today it was quiet so had time to look.

Really need to get out and do some more geocaching.


the elusive cache, camouflaged and up the tree




3rd Jan

Whilst in the shop changing the trousers I spotted these, in the sale for fifty pence for eight fifty gram bags, so I bought them. Not than any of the yummies that came into the house for Christmas have been touched, but I do rather like these t could not resist at that price.

  32. We still have so much opened Christmas rubbish to wade through it is quite ridiculous! I'm going to sort out the unopened over the weekend and take it to the foodbank as we've discussed before.

    Thanks for linking up to Project 365 and good luck for the forthcoming year.
