The last few days...

...I've been listening to the tractors trundle up and along the lanes here...doing the tidying and clearing at this time of year.  Several large trees have been cut down and are now waiting to be next years firewood, or to have a more exotic end.  The ditch has been dredged (at last), and hedges trimmed.  Of course, this leaves the rest of us with mud over the road, tip toeing through the debris which never seems to be cleared.  It's been an energetic time for the quiet of January.

In the home we're getting closer to putting paint on walls.  Two years ago..some might remember, we moved a kitchen, leaving us with an old kitchen space.  Since then we haven't really dealt with it, but now we have pulled down a wall, filled an old doorway, laid a wooden floor, put panelling on one wall and built two cupboards for coats and such...tomorrow we put panelling on the other wall, which only leaves me to fill holes, paper and then paint...and make blinds...

Of course, then we move onto the next room...
