Not easy to do right?

I was watching the squirrel in our garden. For days he was eating all the food we had put out for the birds so we put a squirrel guard over the feeder and now he can't get to it.

He still has plenty to eat in the garden, but on the first day he spent hours trying to get past the guard, attempting from different branches and different angles.

It made me wonder how much time we spent on situations or people we can't change without just "letting things be" and moving on. I know in the past I have all wanted to rescue people and fix things, but mindfulness has made me much more aware of these behavior and how draining they are.

On a more minor level how much energy is spent on frustration at the traffic jam we find ourselves in, the queue at the shop etc?

How much more free we could be if we learnt to just let go whenever we can. This is how we can have the energy and enthusiasm for the things that do matter!

Does this resonate with anyone else?

The first calligraphy workshop with was so much fun but we have been asked by lots of you if there would be any other dates.

We are happy to say that Claire has agreed to come back one more time before her busy season with weddings starts.

This fun and informal workshop will provide you with an introduction to the basics of creating the beautiful curves and structure to create the calligraphy style. You will receive expert tuition, an ink pen to take home and worksheets so you can continue to practice at home.

Tea and cake are provided, a warm welcome and time to meet and feed our gorgeous alpacas. Booking link: https://bookwhen.com/eventsatmillhouse

Some before and after photos from shearing day today.

We'll it was an early start as we were the first of the day for the shearer and he was with us for a 7am start.

A massive thank you to our great friend for coming to help us too.

They don't like being shorn as it's noisy and scary for them but luckily it doesn't take long and they have been skipping about happy ever since with the weight of all that hot fur gone for summer.

They have all been enjoying a good old sunbathe this afternoon and chilling out 😎

Thanks to our shearer Aaron for an excellent job.

Animal news....

Well the alpacas have been rather warm in their full fleece as we have been having summer temperatures already. Luckily they are booked in for their yearly haircut on Monday.

They look so funny afterwards but will definitely be much more comfortable!

Pepė was castrated 2 weeks ago and healed very quickly, in fact he was completely normal afterwards which was great.

The chickens have finally been allowed out today after being in lockdown with the avian flu outbreak and are enjoying their freedom in the garden.

Sadly we lost our little cat Clementine at the end of Jan. She was only 3 years old but got very poorly with cancer and we had to let her go. We were heartbroken as she was still so young and I didn't feel like sharing the news at the time. We are coming to terms with it now but the house still feels empty without her.

Possibly some more alpacas are arriving soon....
