Looking across the street today at the trees, realizing there is almost no haze today. Maybe they’re making headway with the fires in Canada. I hope so.

Decluttering has stalled. We had a very heavy rain a few weeks ago and the basement flooded. Between the trauma of the water pouring in over my sewing area, and dealing with clean up, recovery, and assessing the damage, I haven't done anything.

I still have things in the office listed on Etsy, and some things yet to list, but I’m very happy with the results. My art and music corner is to the right, book cases are off camera to the left. The rug is new.

Office reno has stalled. I need help getting the desk out of the house. Decided to keep the 3rd bookshelf, but move the books from the back room onto it so they're easily accessible.
Still sorting things I want to donate, vs things to sell. Little by little putting a few books on Etsy.

I'm 90% done making the home office usable and inviting again. We'll be down to 2 tall bookcases, have a music area and an art area in the room. No more paths through stacks of STUFF!

20 years ago today, I married the best man I ever met. Tonight, he’s ditching his weekly game to take me to a French restaurant! That’s true love! Happy Anniversary, Steven!

“So ICE set up a hotline where people can call to report undocumented immigrants. But they had to shut it down yesterday because over 90% of the calls were reporting Elon Musk.

Planning to start seeds for spring planting, realizing my mint collection is taking up all available shelf space in the greenhouse. So I bought a small cold frame to house the mints overwinter. And this year, I'm planting coffee.

Starting Hello Fresh this week. Looks like I'll be doing more of the cooking now that Steven will be working on site 5 days a week. With the drive, he won't get home until 5 or 6, and I'd like to eat before 7. So I'll be learning to cook all over again.

Gabriel has been back to normal, bouncing, barking, for a week now. Still on pain pills for another week or so.
Working on insulating the gh this weekend before we hit single digit temps Monday.
Anyone bored, want to help?

Gabriel has no broken bones, looks like a sprain. So he’s on pain meds for a few weeks. Will be good to have our bouncy trouble maker back.

Of course we got hit with Snomageddon today. Gabe is still limping, but seems to be getting better. If he's still limping tomorrow, I'll get him to the vet. Pretty sure it's just a sprain and it will heal in a few more days.

Our Gabe hasn’t been feeling well today. Hoping he’s better tomorrow.

Just looked at the electric bill. I need to supplement the electric heater in the greenhouse. Not electrically.

20 degrees this morning and the little heater in the greenhouse kept it at 42! Planning to rearrange the shelving in there to make room for a bistro set, and I’ll set things up so I can insulate the walls for next winter. I’m happy the heater is working! My spinach and beets are growing!
