FRESH STARTS




Wow. What a weekend (well 4 days to be precise!) we've had! Murray and I have just moved from our first floor victorian flat into THE most gorgeous cottage. Its still in the village, of Killin, just at the other end. The West End as we like to call it!

The past few years have been somewhat tumultuous. But hopefully now the emotional storms have passed and its time to live in the calmness. This new home of ours certainly is instills a sense of calm and peace.

I can't wait to share my new home with you over the next couple of weeks.
But let me share with you firstly, the image above.

It is the view I see everytime I open the door to my new bedroom or 'Sanctuary' as I now like to call it! Murray and I are actually sharing this amazing place we now call home with my sister. And she was kind enough to have the weekend away while we moved in ( VERY SENSIBLE! ). And these beautiful flowers were brought home to us by her!

Its not my birthday till Thursday but the house is already filled with flowers!
Flowers, flowers oh how I do love flowers!

'When you have only two pennies left in the world, buy a loaf of bread with one and a lily with the other.' - Chinese Proverb

'Bread feeds the body, indeed, but flowers feed the soul'. - The Koran

So here's to fresh starts!
