Our snow is rapidly melting with the inch of rain we had yesterday! I actually see signs of life in my flower garden…daffodils and crocus are pushing their leaves through the frozen tundra!! Yippee!

I knew we were kindred sprits…we share a lot of the same arty pastimes! Though I’ve not worked on gourds…that was my niece’s calling! She also burned cowboy hats! But I digress… having these artistic outlets really keeps us grounded, doesn’t it? Lately I’ve shifted gears to making journals and combining that with my watercolors. So that’s been fun and portable because I’m married to a nomad who likes to be on the move. 😉
That was quite a downsize from 26 acres to 2!! Sounds like you’re both making the adjustment well. My husband and I are trying to decrease the amount of ‘stuff’ we have amassed over the years from our own life and that of others…such as leftovers from our daughter, both sets of our parents, hoarding, etc. 😂. When we’re in Florida we literally live with only what we brought in a suitcase. Then we get home and realize how much accumulated ‘life’ is stuffed into closets and horizontal surfaces…something’s got to give.
Speaking of…my todo list today is to finish my closet project. Lots to donate! I don’t want to lose momentum. Hugs to both of you!
