Tales from a down-shifted family

I treated myself to a day out geocaching yesterday. A good excuse to play with some of my Xmas presents and enjoy the winter sunshine. Before I go any further I should of course thank Anna for looking after Morgan all day long and letting me go out to play. I started off with a...
Hope you’ve all recovered from the Xmas excesses… Just in time for some New Year excesses!! Talking of excesses, this post is about the excess amount of information that we have to watch, listen to and read these days… There is just so much good stuff out there that it can become overwhelming.

As promised here is a photo of the lights so far at night. I say so far as I also have an illuminated father christmas with a Merry Christmas banner to go up yet. It isn’t quite over the top yet and I’m sure there are houses with more lights elsewhere in Borth, but it...
Our tree looks nice this year, just the right size for the corner of the room and nicely decorated too. Hopefully it won’t drop its needles as well. Morgan had fun helping us decorate it last night and we have lights in the window and around the deck too. I’m quite into it this year...
