These ten things have made me feel happy too, all are essentials ,I think. Of course I am very taken with the summer meadow :o) isn't it gorgeous? but the thing that cheers me most is Your wonderful daffodil painting..and the stones..it's really lovely, Simone.
ReplyDeleteThankYou for your visit and lovely warm comment. I am happy to be back to, but am taking it very slowly (haven't posted anything further yet) I am hoping that the coming of Spring will help build up the momentum. I going to be blogging proper at Skipping in the Meadow, once I am ready to really start. Hare in the Meadow is going to be a Monthly magazine (at least that the plan). I am hoping it will contain lots of extra, interesting bits.
Hope You have a good week, with not too many weather probs. xxx
A lovely list ..... lots of spring and summer happy things to look forward to. I love your watercolour painting!

And I'm looking forward to hopefully being able to attempt something like your crocheted blanket!
I loved your ten, Simone! Ten things quickly:
ReplyDeleteBeing loved, granddaughters, crafting, good health, long walks, yummy food, cozy home, enough money to pay the bills, comments on my blog, feeling a sense of well-being at any given moment.
Just catching up with blogging friends and loved this post, Simone! Nice to learn a bit more about you!
