Success!

 Thanks to a thoughtful reader (thank you Terri) who emailed with online shops to try, I ordered both of the charts I wanted and a piece of R&R American Chestnut!!  I've heard the color is very nice but you know I'm nutsy about a pink cast in linen.  Here's the way it usually goes ....  if I order a large piece, never happy .... if I order a very small piece, love it, sold out.  So I expect the same to happen.  

I called to see how everyone liked their gifts and if any need exchanged, seems like they were pleased.  The only exchange may be Matt's jeans and trousers for length.  It's tough when you're length is not an even number.  Matt 2 loved his Minecraft shirts more than anything else and I was lucky to find such a variety.  Minecraft?  Totally clueless.

And this newly built house will protect the heated one for Petey and have a place for food dishes.  Most of the wood was cut before assembling in the basement. The houses claim to be weatherproof and sort of waterproof but I never trust that.  Husband has a closet of waterproof down and fleece outfits (he used to hunt) that we need to sell, amazes me that no water gets through. 

Last day of the year!!

Wishing everyone a very happy and healthy 2021.
