I thought I would post a little update after our yard move, a positive post to make a change after all the moaning about my old yard!

We have been at our new place now for just over a week, we moved in last friday. All I can say is, how nice is it being on your own!?!? I can do things when I like, I can do what I like, and I can do things I couldn't do before, like poo picking (maybe thats not a great positive

) because no one else did it. I am loving it, and am spending hours down there doing bits and bobs, whereas before I would be in and out as quickly as I could, I hated being there! Even my OH likes going down to help with things that need doing, and that is a first!!

We have loads of things that still need doing, like clearing away some rubbish, and building a store next to the two stables....atm one stable is the store, which is fine but once the weather starts turning I will need it really. Tonight my OH and our neighbour are felting the roof that they repaired (well, re-built), so very excited about that and will post some pics of them finished tomorrow!! I also need to sort out some kind of hardstanding in front of the stables, as atm its just grass. Also need to connect up a pipe to the water supply to run to the stables so I can have a tap next to them which will make life easier.

But despite a huge list of things to do, and it getting nearer and nearer to winter, I am thoroughly enjoying it all!!

Know exactly how you are feeling moved to our own little yard a month ago after being on livery(although to be fair it was nice there)and cant believe how much more time we are spending with the ponies,the kids can run around and play with there toys(safely) when they get bored of playing with the ponies.
I make sandwiches and OH will happily come down help poo pick and then sit in a chair eating and reading the paper.
Got him building me a chicken coop at the moment so we can have our own fresh eggs.
Its bliss

I love your little grey pony in your sig, reminds me of a pony we had years ago!

I did think I may miss the company of just having other people around, but I don't at all, plus I actually get things done rather than standing around chatting!!
