This is how we live now. Wooly hats, thermals and hoodies. It's great that we moved in right when winter decided to join us. It's cold. The cold seeps through slippers and makes for a very cold pair of feet. Yes- even Rowan now has his very own pair of grandpa slippers!
The cold has also affected little mice who have made themselves comfortable in my pantry basket- or so they thought!
Watch this space...!
Luckily we have some VERY generous friends who gifted us some old carpet this week. Immediate relief. It's like walking on marshmallows. The shed was warmer within minutes- it even got so hot that we had to rip our wooly hats off in celebration.
While laying the first metre of carpet Rowan said, " urgh, I could never be a carpet layer"
And then he got the hang of it and all of a sudden a quick 30 min job turned into a Monday night project. Careful measuring, cutting and laying of the carpet throughout the "house". There was just enough left over to make a little door mat.
See- Rowan kicked off his grandpa slippers!
Next job- getting some pine cones burning on the pot belly.
I hope Rowan has a list of jobs for you to complete each day!
