Been a while since I posted. Again. Matthew is away at school learning to Timberframe, but he has come home a few times to visit - both times he surprised me. He doesn't know it yet but I'm painting him a picture for Valentine's Day. Heee. He doesn't read this, so I've no fear that he'll find out before he gets it. It's a watercolour (terrible one - I'm not skilled at watercolour!) of some timberframe braces and joints. I think he'll like it. We'll see. I'm going to frame it up and mail it to him at school, I think. Maybe I'll wait till the 15th, cuz he's coming home that weekend. Dunno for sure, yet.

It's likely that I have to work tomorrow, though I don't know for sure. Better call Troy.

I'm really ready for winter to be over. I look at all the snow outside and I can't believe it'll ever be warm enough to have green grass, sunny skies, and swimming in the lake! 'Course, once that time comes, I won't be able to imagine snow covering everything.
