Late September Newsletter

I was going to talk but I don't have time.

The morning mist here is really amazing

Walls came a tumbling down

Dandelions and scallions still coming

porch redo turned into a nightmare, rot, big job.

I learned about siesta

Bruno told me he loves my house

The back porch door is in and if you look closely, not a good job.

He was a bit spooked but getting there...

I have a porch... a stitching place

    Jude~ Oh my…your Bruno is so precious! He looks like my son did at that age, but blond. It’s that 1980’s hair!! I love it.
    I love your house too and the mist is amazing. Glad you’re getting so much done before winter. Enjoy.

  2. A bit of a roller coaster, it seems. Yay for a door (although, yay, that’s quite a gap!) and a porch, bummer about the porch rot! Soul-o does look rather wide-eyed. Good you’re getting everything done before winter, then, I hope you can relax a bit!

      The rot was a surprise. The food had no pitch and the rain was bouncing into the walls. My son is redesigning something simple.
      Relax? Ha!

    It all looks either wonderful or in the process to improvement.
    Bruno is a cutie. My grandchildren are both a foot taller than I am now but I remember how huggable they were wen Bruno’s age. Oh, they still hug, but I feel like I’m being enveloped by a giant squid with arms four feet longer than mine.
    Like the 9-patch photo layout.

    Hello! The pictures warm my heart and soul!
    Bruno has grown so. So many good times coming to enjoy him
    growing and learning. He is a handsome little man!
    So many chages … when I make changes like that my stress level rises.
    Was wondering if your respiratory concerns might be associated with using the fireplace. So glad you installed new heat.
    If your concern with the light coming in a the door bottom..they have extra wide insulation for around doors ..it will help!
    Your home gets better and better and is so inviting!
    Enjoy the adventure.

      Yes, he is a big boy already. Speaks 2 languages!
      I think it’s just forest fungus allergies.
      The door is not hung properly, crooked. It will be adjusted.
      All is well. At least I have a safe place to be.

    As long as Bruno and you like it, that’s all that matters. Can see the light coming through the porch door. What is the term for re-do in Spanish?
