My life has come to this

But don't worry about me. Really. I'll be fine. Le rouge allumettes Gienna Écrit Snowy Lake Took this photograph in color, if you can believe it, while up North for Thanksgiving. Worth looking at large. Pretty on black, too. A short and pathetic update

I have been way to busy to blog, but here are some updates. I think this would make a good Christmas letter. I should start doing those.

I sold three photos at a holiday fair at my work. Two of them sold to friends at a discount and they haven't paid me yet, so those don't count. Here they are, anyway: I sold the third one to a total stranger for a modest price. Then realized it was a film (not digital) print and I don't have a scan of it and I probably don't have the negative anymore. It was nice but you'll never know that, because now it is gone forever.

This morning I fell in a snowbank. I was putting the trash and recyclables out, on top of the snow mountain at the curb, and some of the recyclables fell out. So I tried to climb up snow mountin to get them, thinking it was frozen solid. It was not. I fell face first, knee deep in the snow. And when I tried to push myself up my hands got stuck in the snow, too. So I kind of rolled over and down snow mountain whereupon I fell sprawling onto the icy sidewalk. But wait, that's not the best part. The best part is that I was wearing my pyjamas and slippers. No hat, no mittens, no socks. That's right, no socks.

The not crazy upstairs neighbors might be moving, naturally, because nature abhors a not-crazy vaccuum.

I broke my parents' washing machine, the dog did the scoot on their expensive new carpet, and I made my mother cry because I lent her my stand mixer and forgot to give her the beaters for it ... twice.

Let's see, what else? More babies, including one whose name I can't put here because I don't know how to make an umlaut on the computer keyboard. Here's the other one: You can see she is a very happy baby. And why not? It's almost Christmas.

I haven't done my Christmas cards yet and not sure that I will. I'm not really sure where I stand with Christmas shopping. I know I've done some, just not sure exactly what-all I've done.

Otherwise it is work, work, work, work and falling into bed exhausted at 7 p.m., which is why I don't answer the phone when KK and Calvin-roo call. Bad auntie.
 

BTW, toast?
