A busy few weeks.

We have had a busy few weeks. At last we managed to plant Mother's fruit trees ready for spring, they probably won't produce much fruit this year but at least they are in the ground! We have also made all the lavender hearts ready for shows and markets through the summer, the fumes almost over powered us lavender is better in small quantites. I am now getting everything for Wonder Wool and my dye pans have been bubbling with some new colours and Mother has been busy labelling all the new wool.
The sheep are all well and are in the barn because the grass has not yet started to grow as Misty May needs the grass especially as she is starting to work again after her winter break. Our dogs have not been as well recently. Rosie our terrier who had to have a lump removed has been feeling very sorry for herself and Dusty stepped on a blackthorn which I had to spray with antibiotic spray and bandage. It seems to has worked as there is no swelling or infection.
