Love, laughter & friends . . .

52 weeks of happy - week 6:

the Love . . .

Being at home, and out & about with the Hubby.  Just chillin' and catching up . . .and walking in the woods with the pups . . .  and eating {there seemed to be a lot of that} . . . and watching movies . . .


How could I possibly resist ?

Having lots of time to sew & practise my crochet, nice & snug indoors whilst the snow continued to fall.
{It's pretty much all gone now, and we've had blue skies & sunshine for the past few days}



the Laughter . . .

Reading "The Hundred -Year - Old Man Who Climbed Out of the Window and Disappeared" by Jonas Jonasson.
My sister recommended it {and it was a bargain at only 20p to download to my Kindle}, and I'm thoroughly enjoying it.  It appeals to my sense of humour : - )

the Friends . . .

A lovely excursion on the train into Birmingham for dinner and an evening at the Ballet {Matthew Bourne's fabulous production of Sleeping Beauty}, with my girlfriends,
and
puppy-sitting Ben & Jerry's bouncy BFF for the week whilst her humans were away. 


Linking up with Little Birdie as usual . . .

Wishing you a happy new week ahead,
xoxo

      Hope you enjoy it when you do get around to it. It was definitely the most value I've got out of 20p for ages! :-)

      Thanks Bee - the wool is Rooster Almerino (Alpaca/Merino), and I just love the soft colours too. Definitely going to be ordering more in the not too distant future :-)
      Happy week to you too,
