Here's hoping all that is good happens in 2017

A quiet start here which is normal for this corner of the world. We are in a frozen wonderland at the moment. Lots of freezing fog which is not good but the trees look amazing. Like Narnia!
The ducks and geese have settled into their new home and seem happy. The white ones still look very muddy though. I am hoping the grass gets to regrow.
So, what will this year bring? Part of me is excited and part nervous. We still have the issues of Brexit  to deal with which is difficult as we have no idea of what to expect. So far bookings on the Gites is slow but we hope that will improve. At least now daughter has a job they are viable. We have our small private pensions that we can manage on if we are very careful. We budget just about everything but in planned for things do come up.
This week I need to sort out my glasses as I am not coping too well without my varifocals. I am hoping our top up insurance will pay for a replacement lens and specsavers will send it!
Plans for this year are big but then they always are. I know we will not achieve it all but will give it a go....
1. Finish Gites
2. Finish our house
3. Build duck and goose house
4. Build garden shed
5. Build/finish polytunnel
6. Re design veg patch to increase production.
I will keep you posted as to how we do!
It is always good to plan but important to not view as a failure if not all is completed. Life often gets in the way.
This week we have the hospital appointment with the surgeon regarding the arm of him indoors, phoned this morning to book the translator as know now the surgeon will not help.
Also have to take Bruno back to the vet to see how the infection is...I think it has cleared. Then physio restarts for him indoors and suddenly the first week of this year is over. So it goes!
