dentist, almost friday and damn it's cold again!

12 degrees worth of cold again overnight.
but the woodstove was happy this morning so it's all ok right?

i also found a mouse nest on the shelf of the STAIRCASE going to the basement!
(really, how novel, a mouse you say?...imagine THAT! and in the country no less or what used to BE the country and is now suburban)
the cats are trying to catch this very cheeky mouse as i type.

today is a town day, as i have the dentist. so i'll do town type things, po, craft store...... and other things like that.
i need to mail jen's shawlette and a letter to bernie's mother (which i also need to type)
i need 22 gauge wire.... i would like more of them chenille chicks to make ornaments
and a few odds/ends

i am looking at the studio....or at least at my end of the studio.... it needs rearranging for productivity
i realized i need to get the computer more central to my work stations.
i use it as an electronic library, swipe file, typesetter, design wall......etc...
but going back and forth means i tend to get lost in the middle
so i am thinking i need to move the computer to the center somehow..... so i can just swivel my chair to use it ( and get less excersize then the constant get up and dodge cats, logs, furniture, to wander over)

i have a craving to make easter bunnies...in cotton and wool..
amoung other things
that's why i need 22 gauge wire......for armitures
i also need to move my seedlings on......and start some outside (cold hardy greens)

right now i am watching the light come up outside. it isn't exactly sunrise yet.... although the sky is rosy dawn..but the gold light of the sun won't be over the mountains for a while yet- however i can see out now

drinking my coffee in a glass this morning as while i did dishes yesterday, had even a totally empty sink...i found that this morning we have no clean mugs!
this is another of life's mysteries
this and WHY on earth mr peabody sat on a cake

i have to also say, in the interest of fairness......that ice and ASPIRIN are my new best friends.....who knew?

so really this post is about nothing.........
just daily life more or less
which is pretty comforting at times
