the house build is reaching a crucial point, i am busy packing up the cottage and moving items over to an outbuilding near our site, new stock is being made (slowly!) and new stock is arriving, my website is almost ready to go live again and the puppers are both growing and growing x
blogging time will be at an all time low, maybe just enough time to check in with some but not nearly enough time to share ideas, thoughts and wishes,
i will however hopefully update the Sea House blog with pictures of the house arriving on site and going up
(too exciting!!)
and the arrival of two rams to add to the flock x
whilst the house goes up we will be busy marking out the vegetable garden and location of our poly tunnel, moving the sheep in to their section of our land rather than letting them have the whole five acres!
we will also be putting up new fences along the huge boundary of our new 20 acres which will be used for Caithness Rare Breeds - one day we hope to have an education centre and a small animal hospital which we will use to help injured wildlife.
i hope it will also be the site of a new small shop selling lovely goodies, painted furniture, and more.......
our future dream is for it to have a small but beautiful lodge on it that can be used by our friends and family whenever they need rest and an amazing sea view x
until then it will have a sweet old caravan (sadly not an Air Stream - way outside our budget!)
which will be big enough to sleep in and perhaps cook outside on a fire - veggie bangers over looking the sea......
i will of course fill it with vintage quilts, blankets and china and will no doubt spend more time in it than at the main house!
life is moving on and i feel optimistic that this bout of sadness will leave me
it has too
i have had enough
so until the next time lovely blog friends....

Oh Tracy, this is all brilliant stuff - you will be so busy with exciting things that before you know it you will be feeling just like you did before the sadness of losing your dear friend finally got you. You will still feel sad sometimes, but gradually the memories won't hurt so much and the hole she has left won't feel so huge. Keep it going; it's all going to be great! In fact, I think I might just join you!!!
Oh my gorgeous package from you has just arrived - off to open it and will blog about it tomorrow. Thank you! xxxx
Happy Landings in your new home!
I would normally wish you sunshine in your garden but I think that is a bit unrealistic in the far North so I will wish you a warm hearth and friends to enjoy it with.
Sending you a huge hug and a big thank you for my delightful pressie that arrived this morning, a great way to cheer up a manic Monday morning!
Hope all goes well with the house build and all your other plans, I'll maybe be up this summer, will the shop be finished by then....?!
We're in a mad panic at the mo as we've put a deadline on the studio being finished, opening day 31st May!!! Wish me luck!
Take care and thanks again,

Hi tracy
I shall be sad that you won't be blogging as often but delighted to watch your house going up on the seablog site,I will check in everyday just in case you have had time to post a little something, I don't think you realise how uplifting your blogs are. Hope the sheep settle into their smaller patch and that the rams arrive safely.

Gosh I feel exhausted just reading it, never mind doing it!
Hope it all goes well - will be thinking of you. x
Hi Tracy - That really is the cutest pup - I feel quite broody.
I shall keep a look out for news of the new house over on the other blog. My friend Debs is about to move into her new eco house and it looks fabulous. I am terribly jealous.
I wouldn't rule out an airstream - our very battered and slightly sad airstream came in at a lot less that the wooden lodges I was eyeing up -I think that the grafiti and general malaise put off the majority of people. There may be other badly used ones out there - you could start a caravan rescue centre!
