We've resorted to two ultrasound machines in the cottage as we strongly suspected a mouse was stashing seeds downstairs... these machines put out a powerful sound that, we suspect, would drive a mouse outside.
We hope.

This was taken from our land earlier this week, from what will be our garden, looking further south to the field. It was incredibly cold, but because of this the snow crystals, that fell overnight, were of a consistency that allowed them to cling to the silhouettes of the bare branches of the deciduous trees, creating an sense of enchantment and wonder. What beauty we greet us in each and every season.
And as the outside was getting coated in white...so was the inside of the house! Here our "rocker's" daughter is rolling out the undercoating of white paint in the kitchen/dining room. She is completely covered in overalls because they initially apply the paint with a sprayer for quick and total coverage. The under-painting will be topped with coats of the colour we have chosen for the walls and it should all be finished by the middle of this week. Then, the finishing work begins....lights, carpets, tiling, wood floors, kitchen cabinets, etc...
February is going to be a very exciting month...
