Three Reasons Why This Is Not The Hell You Are Imagining

After a flurry of supportive messages following my last post, I feel duty bound to clarify a few things:

1. We are warm - we have a huge wood burner that feeds radiators throughout the caravan and gets it nice and toasty. In fact some evenings we end up in t-shirts because the burner is so hot! The only cold bit of the day is first thing in the morning. This is easily remedied though with a paraffin heater and some early morning cuddles in bed together before we all get up and get dressed. 
2. We do have water - it just doesn't come out of taps yet! We have two kettles that are always on the boil for hand-washing, bathing little man and washing up. Between the gym, my Ma's house and the tin bath in front of the fire we are squeaky clean.
3. The dream is very much still alive and kicking in our little corner of Somerset helped by the may millions of stars that we can see at night before we go to bed and the symphony of the dawn chorus that is not drowned out by cars or rowdy neighbours.

Who could fail to be happy when this is how your day starts
