nirvana.2

Day I was Grande and we are expecting dot.dos to be as good OR perhaps even better so welcome back to day two of this little nirvana marathon.

Today is a Wednesday, Mittwoch or Hump day for the majority of working stiffs.

Overnight communications received from Down Unda. Emma checking in from Oz to wish all well on Gaudete Sunday which this being advent carries over into the entire week. She reports the farm is going on the market & the For Sale will be out shortly. So if you are interested, let me know for more contact info. It is summer there and they have just sheared the alpacas. A photo is promised which will be shared here.

Up early with a very lengthy ta-do list. I am estimating maybe another hour even before the sun comes up. The chill will linger.

I am actually taking a break(s) to feed the fire and address Christmas cards. For the first time in a number of years the list has increased versus dropped. I ADDED more friends than passed away, died or became deceased. However you prefer to call it.

The lined butterflyfish came a long way yesterday with progress but still has a ways to go before complete artistic satisfaction is achieved and delivery can be arranged.

Speaking of progress, slogging my way thru Paul Johnson’s thousand page book. Passed the quarter & one-third milestones and now approaching the half-way point. Still very interesting but so slow.

That’s about it.

Crape myrtle burns quickly & throws off virtually no heat. In fact, I must be cautious sticking my head in the fireplace so my hair doesn’t catch fire. That would be messy.

OK. Must carry on and attack the list.

Look for more later. Like an image or 2 or 3. Seems I am behind on images ...

Hope & pray you made the A-list & get a card with the letter in the next week.
