Welly good

My new wellies, a Christmas present from Husband, were christened today. It was the first walk I'd been on for about a month what with Christmas and being busy and being poorly and I was entering into that anxious/depressed state that I haven't experienced for ages. Before I went I got myself quite worked up fearing 'what if?' What if what I wasn't sure; there were just these unnameable dark fears weighing me down.

A good splosh through the woods - and, my word, we've had some rain this last month - in my new wellies and I feel reinvigorated. Thankfully.

Husband has half-stripped the lounge. He's getting on faster than I expected so I need to be decisive in my wallpaper selecting. Fortunately - amazingly! - the wallpaper I was tempted by months ago in Laura Ashley is half-price, as are the matching curtains! The chances of me choosing a wallpaper on sale, let alone curtains too, must have been minute so I feel this must be a sign. Will I still like it when I go and see it tomorrow though?
