What peculiar weather we've been having. From this...........
to this..............
...and all within 24 hours. I had thought spring had sprung, but we were plunged into winter again for a few days. It has now started to warm up - and so it should - it's the middle of April.
I thought I'd share a few photos of our village during last week's snow.
I don't know about you, but I certainly feel as though this winter has gone on forever. But I think I say that every year. We've been here in the UK 6.5 years, and I'm still not used to it. I cannot stand the cold.
Today has been a mild day - a gentle breeze, warm sunshine, and not a cloud in sight for most of the day. It felt like heaven. So I spent the day doing what I enjoy - gardening. Of course I had my usual helper. Meg turned 4 last Saturday - and she was digging with gusto. Baby Erin, now 10 months old, ate her weight in good fresh compost ! (Not really - but she wanted to). And Jack - our little terrier, also 10 months old, was a real pain. He wanted worms, and did all he could to get them. I didn't get a lot done watching the antics of these 3 - but we enjoyed it. Just to be out in our little patch in the sunshine was such a pleasure. I feel as though I have been a caged animal for the last few months. Growl !
