The new blog name says it all. We are the folks who live on the hill :) The benefits of doing so are wonderful during the delightful months of Spring, Summer and early Autumn. The rest of the year we are battered from all directions by the wind, rain and snow. I am not complaining as the views are wonderful no matter what the weather may be. At present the multi-coloured leaves are falling at an alarming rate but we have been blessed with mild weather and lots of that special Autumn sunshine that illuminates everything in its path.
A bit about ourselves...there is my husband and I, 3 cats and 3 grown children one who arrives home every weekend from the big city. Our remaining 2 are studying in other parts of UK. We live approx. 40 miles from Belfast in the North of Ireland and are blessed to live in such a beautiful country.
My blog will be a little space for me to save a few memories and hopefully it will be filled with many pleasant ones. The last few years have been tough and the loss of both our mothers in a matter of months certainly took its toll. Now we move forward and my new blog will, please God, be a happy record.
So hello from Effieq not my real name but a pet name my children have elected to call me. Speaking of pets, we have 3 cats who believe that they own our home and we are the guests. We all adore them and enjoy them immensely. The picture below is of 'the special one '. This one does not believe in entering the house via a door even if it is wide open. He has a particular window he frequents. Here are a few other pictures taken around my garden in the last few months.
I love a plain simple home and I am at my most peaceful when it is clean and tidy. That happens now and again :)
So that is the first post over and done with phew !!!!!
God bless all.
