Ice crystals everywhere. The views are stunning. For a few days, a magical world. We’re living in an ice palace.
We did lose a bit of ice yesterday, simply because the sun was shining. I suspect the same thing will happen today.
But the real thaw will be tomorrow.
With all this ice, I haven’t been able to get out to get the boxes, bubble wrap and tape that I need to send the egg cups to Country Living’s headquarters in Birmingham, AL. I’ll do that tomorrow. In the meantime, I’ll wash the cups today.
I’ve started a new puzzle. It’s from the same makers of the Shakespeare and Jane Austen puzzles. This time it’s Dickens. All I can say is: Thank God for jigsaw puzzles. Especially when you’re encased in ice.
I’ve been meaning to recommend a movie to you for several weeks. It’s on Amazon Prime and it’s called The Tender Bar. It’s a coming of age movie and it’s beautifully done. Usually, I find Ben Affleck’s work good but not necessarily inspiring, but I have to tell you, his work in this movie is powerful and beautiful. I’m so impressed. If you haven’t seen it, I recommend it highly. He is gaining gravitas and depth as he gets older. It shows in this performance. Very inspiring.
Okay. I’m off to wash the sheets and work on the puzzle and read. But first, some oatmeal.
Stay safe.
Happy Sunday.
