All British Things

Today Nahro is gone to work ALL DAY! So I am here keeping busy preparing for our move to the new house this week and catching up on some American TV shows and movies I have missed. However, yesterday Nahro and I made a trip to the IKEA store in Nottingham, home of the legendary Robin Hood as the sign leading into Nottinghamshire reminds those who may not remember the million movies. As we were driving, and getting stuck in traffic, I was able to view the countryside. It is beautiful and there are rolling hills with homes, sheep. and cattle on them. I have also come to the conclusion that I have an affinity for old English women. They are all very cute and I want to have them as a nan, the Brits way of saying grandma. They always are wearing a skirt or dress with either a sweater or jacket and comfy shoes. Nahro made fun of me for this, but I adore them. I wish I could have taken a photo of just how gorgeous the views are here once you are outside of the city. I am truly in love with this country and its beauty/history. That aside I am still a proud America. How does that happen? I ope to have more photos up of our new house and the countryside new week. Hope you all have a great weekend and stay safe!
