dec. 20 - jan. 5

that's how long fiona is home for winter break.

that's 17 days.

we are only on day 9.

there has been lots of yelling, crying, sword fighting (not the fun kind) and drinking.

this is when being rich must be super awesome.

bc you can sort of go anywhere...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

although i'm not gonna lie.

we would more than likely be here right now...

where would you go?

redecorating...

 

nicole over at sketch 42 posted some awesome images and it reminded me of how much i want a  fur throw...

 

 

 

 

and we all know how expensive these things can be..

 

or cheap looking..

 

 

so i thought what if i went and got a bunch of vintage fur coats and had them sewn together?

i am sure depending on where you go you can find great deals on these things.

i figure about 10 coats.

yes?

am i crazy?

or am i awesomely smart?

 

 

the day after christmas..

what are you doing?

 

did you have a good christmas?

 

fiona got a guitar:

 

it snowed on christmas...

 that is major.

i have lived here for 20+ years and it has never snowed on christmas..

epic.

 

 

 

the standing rib roast i made melted in our mouths..

my table was simple.

in fact, it was all i could do to throw a table cloth on it and light the candles..

but that meat up there was dumb.

 

shit got eaten though..

there were just 4 of us..

and we dined on roast beast,  pear and walnut salad and popovers:

 

and squidgy brownies:

 

 today has been slow.

it has snowed plenty.

it's too cold to play outside.

cats are curled up in balls on beds.

mike is watching football somewhere.

fiona is watching busytown mysteries..

and

i am ready to redecorate everything.

 

talk later?
