Hello, my dear friends. First of December – where has this year gone? It seemed more like a couple of hundred seconds than a couple of hundred days…
I’ve experienced so many ups and downs and so many changes. But none as significant as the last three months. The move to rural Ireland has not been the smoothest – and I moved quite a bit in my life (since I met my husband we’ve lived – not visited, but lived and worked – in eight countries so far) – and I can honestly say Ireland is the most magical place I’ve seen. Maybe it’s the leprechauns. Maybe it’s the numerous rainbows, or the gorgeous sunsets. Maybe it’s just me, or the people here – always happy to chat, and never in a hurry.
Look what I see out of my picture window. How could you not LOVE that?
Life is good, even when the world conspires against me. All I have to do is look out the window, or take a walk across the fields, and I’m okay with it all.
Talking about the fields… I always expected my fitness would improve once I start working, as in proper working, the land. So… it may be only bramble clearing for now, but it is hard word, and I feel it. Come spring, I’ll hardly spend a couple of hours indoors anymore.
An unexpected benefit of having so much space is that my creativity knows no bounds. It’s free. I’m free. And it’s the best feeling in the world.
Here are a few snapshots of my field:
For all of the above, I’m grateful every day! I feel blessed and lucky. Happy Thanksgiving!

Hard not to be inspired with that window view. Gorgeous!
Gorgeous and ever-changing! 🙂
I’m so excited for you! Living in Ireland! How awesome is that? Love the pic too!
Thank you, Lisa. It’s really peaceful here. 🙂
Nice place to live. I love that view!!!
Hi, Sherry. Well, you can come over and experience it for a few days. 🙂
I would love to. ^_^
Getting the inflatable mattress out and stocking up on chocolate. 🙂
Your view is just gorgeous.
I love the outdoors! If only I could fix the house a bit… LOL 😉
Great to see things are working well for you. Hopefully, in the next year you will be able to spend enough time inside to edit my next offering. 😉 Best wished to you and yours, happy to hear you’re happy.
Thank you, Ron. Just say the word. 🙂
May you find the well deserved peace of mind and power to overcome any obstacle that life throws in your path!
Thank you, Carmen! Hugs and the best wishes to you, too. 🙂
