December Days




Hello to each of you! We have an Amaryllis planted at our home, hoping it will bloom for Christmas. Sent off a commissioned baby quilt last week and we heard word that the recipient, a healthy wee boy, arrived yesterday. Found the Jolly Wee Elf pattern on the website of a favourite shop on the West Coast. The elf is a pretty easy project and terribly cute and festive.  What have you been up to? Enjoy the journey.

A bright spot on a chilly morning, this was a fun way of using up some left over yarn.

Back Yard Wild Life

Female Cardinal - December 2010

Last evening while sitting out on the deck, enjoying the nearly full moon rise (tonight is will be full), we were visited by a rabbit and a coyote. Also saw a number of deer just beyond the fence line. It was beautifully peaceful.
Enjoy the journey.

A Recent Poem

Sitting in the tree loft
I notice movement from the left
Our neighbour emerges onto his deck
And shoots at the squirrel
In his yard

-MJT


P.S. It was a BB gun, thankfully. Our neighbour is a hunter and this past spring there was a problem with squirrels in their attic. I thought it odd, but what can you do.
Enjoy the journey - it never ceases to amaze.

Pumpkins




Halloween pumpkins - 31 October 2010

It was our first Halloween in the new house and the first time since living in Texas that we had trick or treaters come to the door. We had quite a bit of fun, thoroughly enjoyed carving the pumpkins, there were some terrific costumes and we ran out of candy by 7:30pm.
November is upon us and restoration on the house is progressing slowly but surely.
Enjoy the journey.
