It really is winter.

In less than a week we will have a new president.
Tonight we finally have snow in the forecast.

And at my house, we are exchanging all the old 40 year old interior doors with white six panel doors. A long and tedious task, including new hinges and doors knobs.

The sky seems to have fallen in on a few hopes and dreams, but for now I won't get into that.
It seems blogging and reading my favorite blogs is kinda like exercising.
Once one stops it's hard to get back on the routine.
But I am going to try, really try, on both those areas.
When the cold hits and the wind blows here on our ridge, it's so hard to walk that 30 minutes, and so the trusty treadmill in the garage will have to do for now.
Except we've turned our garage into a workshop, and so things remain a bit dusty and sawdust covered.

So it's a new year, with new ideas, and hopefully soon some new jobs, around this corner of the world.
Meanwhile we are doing our fixing and tweaking of house projects we started last year.

The new covered porch, while much too cold to sit out there, but believe you me the first warm day we will have our coffee there.

And thanks for sticking with me even when I haven't been around.
