Is my kitchen considered the wild? Because that’s where this chalkboard is.

And also? I’m not ready.

 

Party photos are coming, I promise. For now I hope you will be content with this detail shot of one of our decorations.

It’s a true fact. Heh.

 

I have been getting some great mail lately. I got a Valentine and a letter from Margene. And a postcard from Bev. And a card from Patty. I feel truly lucky and cherished because when it comes to this type of correspondence I am a bit of a slacker.

Yesterday, I got a perfectly wonderful card in the mail from Kym. Her words made me realize that she definitely understands about the winter blahs. And it made for the perfect thing to post today since before this came I had nothing to talk about.

The knitting – it’s all super seekrit.

The reading – it’s not much to talk about right now.

And the winter is dragging on.

But getting mail from friends is just the thing to chase away the winter blues.

The L.L. Bean spring catalog came the other day. Does this make them hopeful? Or cruel?

I guess the photo of it in the snowbank outside my back door says it all.

Does Pinterest count as the wild? Because I saw this over there the other day and thought: YES. Allow me to share?

1. Photography. Not a lot of money but enough to motivate me. And I definitely love it.

2. Running. Still persisting and determined to keep it up this time. And I love the way it makes me feel.

3. Knitting. But of course. My first, last and one true hobby-love.
