Chillin' and keeping warm.,

We are on The Western Isles, relaxing keeping warm and observing the weather, of which there is plenty!!
It is doing us good but even so the big bad world outside keeps sticking its oar in!
 I've started drawing at least once a day and writing as well.
I set a challenge as well... Learn to use the tablet computer I've been given. I think I'm getting there but writing this without seeing what I'm writing feels weird!
Back to The Mainland soon, weather permitting, then hopefully there will be time to sort all the photos we've taken.
Lightbulb moment..turn tablet 90 degrees... to see what one is writing..

Back home to temporarily get both cars serviceable as mine is longer and has roof rack and a towbar, so can carry bigger things in, on or behind on a borrowed trailer....

Our heartfelt thanks go to our hosts, the author of Boxes and Bellows and lovely Eve.   Putting up with us and looking after us.

All this and we missed seeing the Aurora last night by ten minutes... Couldn't stay awake any longer !!

May I be your first blog foot? Happy New Yearsing! I heard the fireworks, but barely woke enough to register midnight. Getting to know the tablet has been a slow process for me.

In the settings of your tablet will be the option to allow your screen to turn to face you whatever way round you hold your tablet. Happy New Year xx

Very Happy New Year, and may the Aurora shine out for you again soon at a more reasonable hour.

Wishing you all a Happy New Year GZ and hope you get to grips with the tablet thingy, before it becomes obsolete! Which is not long these days.... xCathy
