Today rain has stopped play outside and boy that temperature has dropped I was tempted to light the fire this afternoon but I saw sense quickly it’s April not December I told myself. The weather forecast isn’t great this week and for the first time in 6 weeks since we went into isolation I was actually lost as to know what to do. But I have made a list of jobs so hopefully tomorrow I won’t feel out of sorts again. Yesterday my son received his letter from the hospital to say from the day he received his letter he now has to fully self shield and isolate for 12 weeks from the day he received the letter. ( it was dated 24th April ) How he’s supposed to do that with one bathroom in the cottage we’re not sure. But we have been taking every sensible precaution we can for the last 6 weeks. But another 12 weeks is now ahead of us which takes us up until the end of July. Thank goodness for our garden and open countryside because as much as I love my husband I think we all need a bit of space from time to time. This week I will be painting , baking , sorting boxes of photos into albums and sat on my bright vintage orange sofa doing my embroidery which I haven’t picked up in weeks and catching up with you all. I hope your all keeping well and still smiling through this crazy time. I forgot to mention the beautiful flowers are a gift from my elderly neighbour for cooking him a roast dinner on a Sunday , supplying him with cake and eggs and doing a spot of gardening. I was so touched and told him he shouldn’t have it’s what good neighbours do but he said it made him feel better and was a thank you for looking after him . Hugs to you all x

When I’m not outside pottering in the vegetable patch and garden my other favourite space is my kitchen. This past week my kitchen had a little make over. My husband painted the walls in the same shade of yellow that I painted the stair walls ( see photo 8 for the colour difference ) he finely finished tiling to around the wall where the little side table is and hung the same vintage 70s wallpaper on the cooker wall that he put into my pantry. I changed the green floor rug for the bright multi coloured one from our camper van Doris and I am loving how much brighter and more cosy it feels. This side of the cottage is always dark the hedgerows are very high. By now you will know I adore the 60s and 70s. Clashing colours and patterns and designs make my heart sing. I also find a warmth and a comfort from them. In these unsettling times we find ourselves in warmth and comfort is so important right now. I did question about what to continue sharing on here as I am so very lucky to live where I do. To have the countryside on my door step and a garden to still enjoy while others are not so fortunate. But I wanted to try and keep life here as normal as possible and hopefully bring a lightness and perhaps a bit of joy through these little squares of mine. Take lots of care , Dee x

I love our attic bedroom it’s my favourite room in our cottage. I don’t always show the other side and corner of the room so here it is. It houses my beautiful vinyl 60s wardrobe that I bought and spotted on our very first trip to France and one I nearly fell over myself trying to reach. My goodness I can’t tell you how much my heart rate increased when I saw it and saw it was only €14 I don’t have a lot of clothes they all fit inside it including my cardigans. I don’t wear trousers I don’t have any in fact I don’t even own a pair or jeans. I much prefer dresses and I have 3 skirts. The ottoman was given to me and I use it to house my winter jumpers and bedding. I am a vintage book collector I absolutely love the feel , the energy and the history which surrounds them and I love finding the names and dates of the previous owners. This book shelf houses just a few of them as I have them placed all around the cottage. After the winds , grey skies and rain it’s truly wonderful to wake up to blue skies and sunshine today. I was painting walls in the bathroom yesterday but today I will be back outside trying to work my magic in the garden. Have a lovely day x
