turning point

Its been a funny couple of days..
Yesterday was Fathers Day..the first since my Dad passed away..which as happy as I was to be with my wonderful husband whom is the BEST dad it was still very emotional.
I've been feeling a lot lately that I am in the middle of some sort of shifting sand.
My teaching job that I used to love has lost some of its appeal and I feel like there is somewhere else I should be.
I LOVE my B&B business...making a gilded nest that other people get to experience if only for a night. I wouldnt say I am a particularly creative person but as a line in a book I once read put it I love to 'create havens'.
So the question I am asking myself is .....where to now??

more about me

I am so enjoying traversing my way around other peoples blogs and then the blogs that they follow....which I guess is what its all about.
Its also interesting the many different ways people use their blogs and this is something I am still developing.
I've also realised that I havent really shared too much about me and what gets me up in the morning so thought I would share some things that I love though not in any particular order;

1. anything French - food fashion gardens real estate ( dont we all want to own a chateau or 3??)

2. beautiful gardens..or those that I think have potential

3. reading - never get enough of reading

4. travel - real or armchair it all excites me

5. food

6. old houses/buildings

7. the beach and the forest

8. quiet time (hardly ever happens which is probably why I love it!!)

9. the colour red

10. creativity in people


I could probably add more but that will keep for another day...

spring in the mountains

Spring has decided to come early this year...we can only hope that we wont get a late frost for the orchardists sake.
I love Spring....so much promise.
Spring also reminds me of all the chores I meant to get done over winter and never quite got to...oh well.
Hope your having a great day

Bonjour

Hi Everyone!

Well I have finally done it - my own blog!

Hope you will all be gentle with me as I navigate and learn and of course please feel free to offer advice.

Welcome to all those whose blogs I already visit and to those I am yet to find.
