WOYWW 397 11th January (2)

Thank you for all your visits and comments from last week. Feeling a little down this morning as today would have been my sons 50th birthday, but as things stand a new year, a new beginning.
All the celebrations of Christmas, New Year and 3 Kings (Epiphany) here in Spain are now over and things are starting to get back to normal. Well as normal as can be in this very laid back part of Andalucia.
So what is on my desk today:-

Well nothing to be precise I have no photo to show you but I have been busy knitting have nearly finished the jumper I posted last week now on to the last sleeve, then the bit I hate sewing up and the neck  never seem to be able to pick the correct number of stitches up. Next week I will be modelling it. haha

All is continuing as normal at Villa Ani well as near normal as possible whatever normal is. Must admit I was tempted to take on a puppy this week four of them had been found dumped in a drain. Then I said to myself the puppy will probably out live you is that fair. Also I don't know how my two cats would take to another dog, but I must admit I do miss walking a dog since Morse died.
Well it is now Thursday early hours and I must go to bed, so goodnight all.

  3. Is that Morse in the photo? He looks just like my friend's dog, Winston! We have two cats too, they just don't take well to walking! Sometimes I think I will ask someone in the neighborhood if I could walk their dog, just to get out walking! Haven't had the courage yet, though! Have fun with your knitting - a great pastime! Thanks for sharing, Lindart #39

  6. Hello it's lovely to meet you,thank you for visiting. Christmas is always particularly difficult I think remembering our lost loved ones. Hugs. I like knitting but also hate sewing up and picking up stitches - always seem to ruin my work. Look forward to seeing your finished garment though. Anne x #18

  7. Happy Belated WOYWW. We only got our decorations down a few days ago, and still got that bare-house feeling. It seems like life has been on stop for too long, and I am really keen to get on with the year now. I keep saying to myself that when Buzz our little dog is no longer with us I will not get another one - but I know that I would miss walking a dog too. Is there a rescue group near you that you could volunteer with? Or how about fostering? You can specialise in older dogs. Ali x #29
