So here’s the promised cheerful post! Things are still kinda busy around here, with some big decisions happening and plenty of “are we doing the right thing?” moments. But I’m confident that it’ll all work out eventually.
So anyway, we spent a week caretaking a friend’s place at the beginning of the month (oh, wow, is it nearly February already?!) and here’s the video I finally put together of our time there. It was heaps of fun getting up at 8am every morning to let the ducks and chooks out, milk the goats, feed all the animals, all before coffee.
Bella, the beautiful old dog who appears in the video, passed away last week. She was such a good dog while we were there, didn’t pine for her owners like we were expecting, just took the whole thing in her stride. She had no problem with us bringing our dogs into the house, never stole our food, never caused any problems whatsoever. She was a sweet old thing, spent most of her time sleeping in the corner, but was always happy for a pat. One night I was walking from the house to the bus, and I ended up with Bella trotting on one side of me and Sparkie on the other. There wasn’t anything going to sneak up on me with the dogs like that! She will be missed by both her owners and by us. R.I.P Bella!
You know what this means right? Yes, we finally brought a new computer! Two of them actually, second hand. One of them’s a bit dodgy, but they both came with three month warranties so we can take it back. So yeah, expect a lot more photos around here!
Yay! Great clip Jasmine!
