These past weeks

I seem to have lost my blogging enthusiasm these past few weeks, or maybe even months. 

I get like this sometimes - nothing I do seems worthy of photographing, nothing seems interesting enough to write about here. 

Maybe it's the changing of the seasons, the end of my job, ongoing trouble with my tooth. Or maybe it's none of those things.

Anyway, I'm going to leave you with some pictures from the last few weeks, not going to try and catch up and tell you everything I've been doing, but hopefully this will just remind me how cheery it is to put everyday things here to look back on. 

Things have started to get quite festive around here. My mum visited at the weekend, and we went to a carol concert in a cave, which was tremendously exciting (and also tremendously chilly). On Saturday we put the tree up, and by Sunday we'd recovered enough from the effort to hang the baubles. 

I also hung these sparkly gold stars in our empty picture frame. I was aiming for a random, irregular pattern, but they somehow ended up in diagonal stripes. I took them down and did them again - and ended up with stripes in the other direction. So this is how they're staying, for now at least...
