Man-wonder has been slowly losing heart as he de-mouse-s the sun porch.
De-mouse-ing in the sense of removing and replacing the ‘Mickey Mouse’ work done by previous owners of this mo-bile we now call home.
But, I think I’ve found a bit of motivation with this picture I came across.
Now that’s a sun porch! And I plan to show it to him tomorrow. I figure it’ll send him heading down one of two paths—either he’ll realize how tiny our sun porch is compared to this mammoth and he’ll strap on his tool-belt with renewed vigor OR he’ll like it and decide we should rip down and redo bigger. . . Either way it should be a win-win situation. . .
On a completely different note I came across these little treasures during the week:
- A well-written and connecting blog post about grief, loving and living when it’s not easy; http://www.theunlost.com/suckiness/grief-can-be-a-gift-on-loving-losing-and-living/
- A great short video where Momastery blogger Glennon Doyle Melton talks about finally owning her body as well as saying the f-a-r-t word out loud; http://momastery.com/blog/
- For anyone who likes to play around with hand stitching here is a site worth pinning as well as an offbeat story about an offbeat purse: http://plays-with-needles.blogspot.ca/
- Still at the http://plays-with-needles.blogspot.ca/ is an E-course called the Harikuyo Needlebook E-course. Great pictures of a completed needle-book as well as a link to a booklet telling you about the Japanese ritual called Hari-Kuyo (aka broken needles) that takes place each February 8th in Japan.
