ok, i've had it....

it really does take a lot to russle my bussle, so to speak....but enough is enough for this winter...i sit back and can nearly smell the salty breeze in my mind drifting off of the gulf of mexico...when you live up here, well, you just don't complain to other people up here, kind of like we are all in the same boat (i wish it were a boat)....we just deal with it... but to give you the follow up of my two weeks off, christmas started with no power, that means no heat, for days and days....we ran out of wood after just a day...stole from our loving neighbors, carrying logs up by sled...spent way TOO much time by candlelight, it has now lost it's mystery to me...

things that won't happen again? i won't run out of wood, for tons of trees are coming down all over our yard and we have plenty of chopping to do this summer; i will not live my life by candlelight, i will have kerosene lamps...and i won't attempt to even drive up or down the driveway for fear of an oncoming ditch...there were no new designs crafted as i anticipated, and there seems to be no back to school days...for it seems the ice will be going on and on....

my dad sent me this video...pretty much life as the way it is i would say today...i have to think ho hum for winter doesn't start here until february...it's 9 degrees today, oh yippee...





bring me some cheer and order a piece for your home, it will bring me purpose, joy and some comfort in this most uncomfortable time:
