I was fortunate to have lived on the Gulf Coast of Texas rather than the deeper interior where it got that hot most of the summer. Mostly I stayed within doors in the air conditioning and puttered around the house. I actually like chilly weather--I get a lot done when it's below 60F. I bead year round to keep me sane. The current temperature here converts to -30C where you are. What is your winter coping method when winter comes to your hemisphere?Lord Wellbournehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16871295386557996816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2990589565206490228.post-14224651126771099342009-12-30T15:19:09.289-08:002009-12-30T15:19:09.289-08:00Oh yes, with all that opulence around to keep you ...Oh yes, with all that opulence around to keep you cosy and comfortable any night is too nice to be shot hey?<br />Here it is 41C, is that about 106F? You'd be asking for the bullet unless you suddenly acclimatised,got on with life and managed to find that Summer is the perfect time to relax, enjoy a bit of quiet beading,tapestry work or reading or take a visit to a long established Botanic Gardens with huge shady trees and a feast of waterlily sights.Happy New Year!Vonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17421069895155350144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2990589565206490228.post-20968475286663517482009-12-30T08:42:20.795-08:002009-12-30T08:42:20.795-08:00I am right.

The studio is my sanctum-sanctorum. It is a scaled down version of my home in Texas. Lots of brocade and inlaid or carved wood. Oriental carpets, pillows and candles galore. Looks very much like a harem, actually. Lots of brass and copper. One of my cousins referred to it as a cross between a mini museum and "Ye Olde Curiosity Shoppe". Either way it does indeed make the tundra feel far away.<br /><br />Red: You always say the nicest things!!

There in such a nest, the moaning wind makes it all just a little comforting, doesn't it?Junehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11710135137635433217noreply@blogger.com
