Oh How do I love Monday mornings, when the daughters go off happily to preschool. We revel in the routine of it, somehow a welcome return to school that feels fresh after far too much free time on the weekend. And when they go out the door, the house falls silent. The woods out the window come right in and we are together.
The pets take turns biting each other on the neck.
BlackJack likes birds.
My first cardinal hat. Hmnmnmn....
Leaves on a hat.
This flower bouquet going to hang on the wall I think. The stitching takes quite a bit of time. Can't judge it yet. It has a ways to go still.
I spent three hours cleaning daughter bedrooms this morning.
Just barely had time for an hour of skiing. Cross country skiing today was phenomenal. Outstanding snow. Beginner's paradise. Everybody's paradise! I took the "Advanced Skiers Only" trail loop, which turns out to have a beautiful view of the lake. I was floating on snow. What a perfect day. What perfect snow.
BlackJack stalks a wind-up toy during play time this evening.
I'm loving my beverage center but it definitely needs some lady like sprucing up, as I am noticing on some of the vintage lover's websites and blogs. Maybe I need to browse some antique shops for something less store-bought looking. My beverage center needs to visually reflect the superb comfort factor it represents. By the way, making tea with this electric kettle and pouring it over loose leaf tea leaves in the tea pot is way, way, way tastier than just heating water in a microwave and sticking a tea bag in. This has me intrigued on the English tea tradition. I might need a tea cozy.
