Busy in the country

Two things have happened:

I have been very busy in our country home and I have had 

no access to my electronic archives all these last weeks 

but it seems that things are henceforth going normally, 

at least let’s hope! I’ll be back commenting on your wonderful 

posts! So, we have started to renovate our country home 

which needed dramatic changes and required a great effort

 not only of layout but also of money. We decided to proceed 

slowly but surely with the big desire to revitalise this 

property which comes from my husband’s family and which 

is filled  with lovely family items, a great collection of my 

mother in law's embroideries and of course a house 

steeped in tender childhood memories.

I’m showing you some little details of the work I have done 

aided by an admirable “collaborator” of mine, a talented 

sweet friend who has “abandoned” her family on three 

successive weekends to give me a hand, advice and a healthy

 dose of good taste. Thank you Yolanda, you inspire me and 

transmit so positive energy around you!

The photos from our country garden were taken in late 

autumn, in glorious sunshine. It has been grey and dull lately, 

so no photo interest from outside.

It’s my first blog anniversary, a whole year has passed

since I traveled to blogland and I would like to 

thank you , my companions, for your love, 
kindness and support. 

It was such an enriching experience! 

Wishing you all the best!
