Mild and wet
I know, I've been slack. Sorry. I've got this new work contract which means driving up to a place north of here for two days a week, about 45 minutes to an hour each way. Takes up more of the week, plus busy with other stuff as well. (I know I won't get any sympathy from those of you who get up at 5 to get to work at 7 so they can work four days a week so they can spend the other three with their kids!)
Has been raining a lot lately, though quite mild. There's been quite a bit of flooding around. Forgot to say earlier that I've had crocuses coming up in one of the pots in the back since October (!) The strawberry plant looks like it has new leaves on it. Everything is so confused. Very dark in the evenings though - dark now by 4:30. Those of you living closer to the equator, in the tropical climes of Ontario and the Maritimes, be glad of it.
Can't think of much else to say. Amelia has a cold. One of my closest friends paid an unexpected visit to England on the weekend and I got to see her for a few hours, which was fabulous. We went to IKEA (not as simple as it sounds, as the closest one is an hour away) and bought a shelf to hold Amelia's growing toy collection.
That's all for now.
