We're back in Ireland!


Yes, we are back in our Irish home: Jessie, Floyd, Jai and Suki are with me.
This time, I am trying to accomplish one big task: fencing the land behind our house. This piece of land comprises 6 small fields and our little hill is in it too. We are clearing the hill and the dry walls of all sorts of weeds and saplings, and the fence will go around the perimeter, so the sheep will be able to move around unless we block the gaps in the walls, and we hope they will not jump them (too much).





Our little hill was covered in shrubbery, wich we took down and made a bonfire of :)


 



 The rest of the rubbish that isn't burnable, we're burying.


How empty and big the hill looks now!
 

 The end result looks pretty good...
I can already imagine sheep wandering on it, eating their belly's full of lush grass :)

Happy New Year!



We wish everyone all the best for 2016, and I hope you enjoy this poem:


Another year, another chance
 To start our lives anew;
 This time we’ll leap old barriers
 To have a real breakthrough.

 
We’ll take one little step
 And then we’ll take one more,
 Our unlimited potential
 We’ll totally explore.


We’ll show off all our talents
 Everyone will be inspired;
 (Whew! While I’m writing this,
 I’m getting very tired.)


We’ll give up all bad habits;
 We’ll read and learn a lot,
 All our goals will be accomplished,
 Sigh...or maybe not.
 

Oh well, Happy New Year anyway!
