Five things I LOVE about living here...

1. The bright, airy rooms


dining room

kitchen

conservatory

No, they're not perfect - we desperately need more dining chairs, the kitchen counters need repairing, the conservatory is either freezing or roasting - but for a modern-ish house, the rooms are wonderful dimensions.

2. The transformation on a chilly evening


3. The one picture I have hung in the living room fairly glows in the fire- and candlelight.


4. The newly cleaned patio - I can now step outside without risking slipping 

before

after


5. The natural delights right here in our garden - look who visited today!

what is he doing??

Silently I begged him to look round...


Never a dull moment living here :)

  2. I love bright airy rooms! Our current home has a lot of indirect light, which makes it hard for me in the winter. Luckily, my daughter's bedroom is always full of light so I spend much of the winter hiding out up there during the day to soak up the vitamin C! : )

    1. We have to seek the sun wherever we can find it, don't we, especially as the days shorten...

    1. Yes, it is a real joy to live here - how I hope it'll be much longer than just the 6-month lease!
