........ let me just look at a calendar or two (or even three!!)
this gorgeous chicken thinks it's the 8th
the cute sock monkey agrees!
If you are of a sensitive nature, scroll past the next calendar quickly (Malcolm bought it for my Christmas ..... on the other hand you may want to click on it to enlarge it!!
this handsome chap also agrees that it is the 8th ....
..... which can only mean one thing ...... it's my first anniversary!!!!! (did I hear a fanfare and a roll of drums?)
I can't believe I have been doing this for a year and haven't yet run out of things to say (ok, I admit it, my friends will tell you that I never stop talking!!). I thoroughly enjoy writing my blog, and I'm amazed at how many people now read it. This is my 294th post and I have received over 1100 comments. I have made many friends, mostly blog friends, but of course last year I met Sarah and Lee, and this year I hope to meet Meg, as she is moving from Idaho to Italy.
Of course an anniversary means a giveaway! To be included in the draw, which I'll make next Friday, simply leave a comment, mentioning if you live in the UK or abroad, as there are two separate giveaways, because of the cost of postage. Multiple entries are welcome, so feel free to leave a comment every day!!
To finish, of course there has to be an update on the weather! We have had another day without snow (hooray) BUT ...... it is still well below freezing, so the snow willl be here for quite a while yet (we've had snow here since the 17th of December - we remember because it was the day we went to Falkirk to see Stuart!!). We went for a walk after lunch, and this is what our road looks like
It is passable with care - but the cleared bit is only wide enough for one car, and the ploughed snow at the edges is frozen hard, so it would be a bit hairy if you met a car coming the other way - or worse, a tractor!!
I hope you have a wonderful weekend - we will be staying in and keeping warm!
Love Anne
ps - Malcolm also bought a calendar for Jennifer. When we were there on Christmas Day, her mother-in-law had a very good look at all the photos, then declared that she really didn't fancy any of the men (she's 92!!)
