Modern House Minimalist Design

I realise that everyone will have done their Christmas decorating by now, however I would like to share a video of the interior of a modern country home from House and Home decorated for Christmas. Please click "here" to view the video.  I did imbed it in my site originally but it wanted to play holiday music each time my web page loaded and  so I felt it would be better to remove it and just add the link. Please go and take a look though as its really nice. You can click "here" also Counting down....2 days to go!  Merry Xmas Lee oxo &  Poppy

A while ago I posted about my dog sitting for Guardians and how I fell in love with Hugo who is a miniature schnauzer.  I've not been in a position to have a dog since arriving back in NZ as I have been so busy with my mother and her cancer. Its been a tough time returning to NZ alone and caring for my mum and sadly more recently her long term companion Graham has also been diagnosed with terminal cancer and is very ill. It hit me hard with regards to Graham as it was so unexpected and seeing someone you care about suffering is heartbreaking. I made the decision a few weeks ago to get a puppy for company and some unconditional love to help lift me up when I am down. I loved the personality of Hugo and the fact that Schnauzers don't shed and are allergy free. I previously owned 2 Standard Poodles who were wonderfully intelligent dogs but definitely wanted something smaller, more "user friendly" :)  I thought to myself, I wonder if there is such a thing as a Schnoodle...
