HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYBODY.
 
 
 
 
Thank you to everyone who has taken the time to follow me and read my posts.
And thank you for all your lovely comments, they make my day.
 
I just enjoy making a record of my life in Cornwall.
And hope you enjoy reading my ramblings.
 
 
So if you are having a party or just staying in tonight
have a fab time.
 
For 2015
 

 
           I am going to try to be a better Blogger. I have a new camera, which I got for
           my Birthday. I just need to learn how to use it. And stop using my phone.....
           Don't buy, adopt, rescue any more animals.....Promise  (might have fingers crossed).
           Make more time for friends and myself.  De clutter house , garden, outbuildings.
           Easy to say, than do.
           Don't Spend  -     SAVE.   Well after I have spent my Christmas money..
 
           If I keep to just a few of the above I will be doing well.
 
 

 

We are just staying home tonight
watching t.v.and keeping warm
just perfect.

 
FROM ALL OF US INCLUDING
OUR PETS
 
HAVE A HAPPY, HEALTHY ALL YOU CAN DREAM OF 2015

ARCHIES NEW PLAYPEN

               Archie my puppy Chihuahua is so small. It is quite dangerous just to let him
               run around the house unsupervised.

              And it is impossible and not good for him to just hold him all the time.
              When there is no one to run around after him..

              So after much searching I have found that they make Dog Playpens.

              So this is Archie's New Playpen.







                                              Blue for a boy of course.
                                              It is large enough to put his bed in and all his toys.
                                             And because he is tiny he has lots of room to
                                             run about....




                                              He only goes in here for a short time.
                                              And as soon as he is bored playing he barks a little bark
                                              And there is always someone to cuddle Archie......
                                              No one can resist because he is so cute.




                                            Archie has now had his 2nd injection.
                                            So will be taking his first walk outside on the 1st January.
                                            If no rain or snow. I am really looking forward to taking him out.

DO YOU WANT TO SEE MY HOUSE.



First I would like to say welcome to my new followers. I hope you enjoy.

You have probably noticed that I have changed the lay out of my Blog.
My fantastic daughter has been helping me make it a bit more interesting.
Sorry but my buttons are not working at the moment. But they will be soon.
You all know it takes so much time to sort things out. And so frustrating.

Hubby throw the last of the Turkey away today. But we are still eating
lots of rubbish, sweets, cakes, puds etc. As always too much food.
Need to start on the fruit and more veg.

Christmas tree and Decs are still all over the house and garden. Feel
they have not been up for very long. Time has flown past. Dreading as I know
everyone does of taking them all down. But making plans to do a lot
of changes around the house and garden. So watch this space.

Anyway you wanted a look around my house.

When I say house I mean my Dolls House.
Hope you are not disappointed.
I will take you for a tour around my real farmhouse in the new year.
Promise.

                                             DOLLS HOUSE

                                             New bedroom furniture.




                                      My dolls house only has four rooms.
                                      So the bathroom is also the sewing room.
                                      I might get my hubby to somehow
                                      divide this room.




                                     The kitchen now has 4 dogs. Need just 2 more then
                                     it will be like home.





                            
                                   The lounge even has a Christmas tree in.
                                   This was a present from a friend just for Christmas.
                                   But is a perfect size for my house.

                                   I hope you enjoyed the  tour.

                                   Have any of you a dolls house?
                                   Would love to hear.
                                   Did you decorate it for Christmas.

NEW CHAIR FOR THE LOUNGE




                                               In my lounge I have two Laura Ashley Sofas .
                                               I also had a small low vintage floral armchair.
                                               Which is pretty but more a bedroom chair because it
                                               is so low.
                                              So just before the Christmas shopping rush.
                                              I brought myself a new chair,which is the
                                              right height and more practical.








                      The colour is just perfect and it was really useful over Christmas.
                      And very comfortable.
     
                      Have you brought any new furniture lately?

ARCHIES NEW BLANKET TO KEEP WARM

If you read my posts you will know I have a new puppy Chihuahua called Archie.
He is really tiny  so gets cold very easy, even in my house with the central
heating on and the log burner.
In the evenings he likes to lay on my lap for a cuddle before he goes to sleep.
So my hubby said I should make  Archie a blanket to keep him warm.
So last night while watching t.v. and eating chocs. I made this for him.





I knitted a square first. Then crocheted round the square until it was big enough for
him. Then edged it in white. Put his name in the centre and put a paw print in one of the corners.





You can see in this picture where Archie was shaved on his back, when he was ill
last week.
































Archie loves it and it is doing a good job of keeping him warm on my lap.
I hope my other dogs do not get jealous or I will be making 5 more......
