I’ll take what’s behind door number three please.
It’s another cold morning here. My hands are little blocks of ice! I’m clad head to toe in wool (YAY WOOL!) and there is Ice (okay, frost) on my car. In a few short hours the temp should be up to 90f and it will be hot as Hades in the sun.
Not buying it?
I offer photographic evidence. (Please do say a small prayer that my basil isn’t done for, I forgot to take it in last night.)
As much as I’ve been complainy about this house (Mentally ill ~ thanks Riin for hitting the nail with that one ~ hysterically ORANGE kitchen, dangling, ripped clear plastic in the studio; 50 degree temperature fluxes within 20 hours, not knowing anyone, and so on and so forth… I feel entirely blessed. I do. I feel lucky to have a roof over our heads. Especially one that doesn’t leak! Walls that don’t have toxic mold inside; water that we can drink, cook with and bathe in; and most of all a land-lord we aren’t related to. (FWIW, He’s been much kinder to us than our last land-lord. Cough.)
The first wave of post cards went out yesterday! If I had your snail mail addy by 3pm left coast time; the card is in the mail. There is still time people, I’m forever buying post cards for the kids to send. It’s nice to get something in the mail other than dreaded bills…. Plus, I have grand plans for your cards. Oh yes, yes I do. I plan to hang them all in the (cough) “studio” to help take away the rough edges! (So, I will need a metric butt ton of them)
a diamond in the rough? Sure, I think so. With some time, postcards, elbow grease, insulation,(?!) and a nail gun it will be fab! I should get on it then, before the mercury reaches 90.
XO!
It’s so hot and dry here it’s difficult to think frost this time of year! I’d love to send you a post card!

It is all about the micro-climate out here. Crazy. And I hear the gratitude. Amen. I am definitely a glass half full person. Except when I’m not.

You must be forever peeling layers and putting them back on. Frost would be so cool right now (get it?, cool).
I flaked and didn’t mail my postcard today, but rest assured, it’ll be there to adorn your walls. And now that I have your address and know that you like postcards - watch out!
