Bone-chillingly cold but I cannot complain b/c there is a fire and I love the fire.
More decisions, more designs, and more work. House is nowhere completed, not even getting close but it doesn't really matter much now, we'll move in when we're ready. In the meantime, it's beginning to look alot like a lovely vaca of sorts....
.......and the shoestring budget goes on. We did, however, find a faucet for the bathroom sink, so that's taken care of. And Dave did score 7 windows for his pole barn and it recently occurred to us that we could make the pole barn alot bigger then we're planning on... but once again, all this is done one step at a time. We manage to keep building and eke out an existance and it is the greatest of fun. This place will be a work of art (well, to us, anyway), and it is slowly coming to life... this is like watching something rise from a pile of this and that into something tangible. .
I am humbled to have this life. My dreams reflect it, they vary in all sorts of ways, but they are incredible. I am creating and having literally the time of my life. Today I made chocolate banana brownies, homemade whole wheat bread and homemade dog biscuits. Then I came out there and am sitting by this fire, thinking about how lucky I am to have found the perfect life. My life is not perfect, but it is perfect.... for me. And for that I am blessed by whatever gods you wish to pray to.
Mixed media I will conquer, one piece at a time.... :-)
This I created for you, my ever-gracious lady. Do you remember? How light the song that you sang on that summer's evening, the storms roll in and you and I bathe in the current of charge, of the unknown, then and before and yet now, too... and you are, forever.... my gracious lady....
