So the icon is in the Atwater Market this past autumn. Colour (I give the Brit/Canadian spelling, although I do believe it is a waste of a good u) was almost obscene in its abundance. We used it up like it was everlasting and neverending. Here is the view from the window today:



And this was taken at 10am - the brightest it's gonna get today. . . but who's complaining? I'd like to, but apparently, in Canada, we do not complain. We just make do and suffer through and spend the long winter nights dreaming about how we're going to move to Costa Del Sol . . . well that's what transplanted Americans dream about . . .

 And then there is the window from which I look out when I write:



The curtain is the result of my 12 year old need for glitter and the window is because the girl gave up her office for me. She shares every other space in the house with me, but gives me the precious spare room, because she wants me to have a place that feels like home. So tomorrow marks 5 months here in the hinterland and except for some jagged longing to see my children more often, I am home.
(But don't tell her - I've grown quite fond of my "nook")
