Staying The Distance

It’s hard to believe we’ve been in this house a couple of months short of a year.
I know this because yesterday we got an offer for another 12 month lease.
Yayest of yays! 😀
There’s still just over two months until this lease runs out, so they must really like us…

I am continuing to get cosy with my art space, and have spent a bit (or more) of time out there each day. I think I’m catching up with my assessments. Here’s one I did earlier –

A crumpled piece of paper!
This is the second attempt at this one – the last one was rubbish…

The cold has started to grow teeth now.
Yesterday, the evening was pretty in pink.

It even looks cold!

The roses are sleeping, remembering sunnier days, and casting petals to the memories.

And I am close to slumbering – dreaming of graphite and charcoal.
…with a lovely relaxing playlist to sleep by.

Open For Business

…or at least, coffee! 😀
Everything’s coming together nicely.
My books are snuggling together in the shelves, the kitchen is easy to move around in, and the general surroundings are still quiet and a bit sleepy.
Our door is open for sharing coffee and bikkies – had a lovely friend round today to catch up.
We even had time for a morning out last week for our anniversary ❤

Hot chocolate with a lovely melty marshmallow 🙂

My Babe has set up his studio downstairs, and has started some projects for the business.
His website is up and running – check out sajumusic.com for all the details. And of course you can still listen to the podcasts!
My space is coming together, too.

I wonder where dreams will take us?

Making Music In The Mess

Powering my way through packing at the moment (you know, with rest and coffee breaks included…)
I feel like the hardest bits are pretty much done. I have to remember how I packed my teacups safely last time, but I’ve finished the fragile things from the glass display cases.
Books are all packed.

Still got most of the art room to go.
The TV room has been my main point of packing so far. This means it has been a mess, even though most of it now is actually boxed or in some other kind of order.

Still life with cardboard 😀
Time to put my feet up…

We’re waiting to hear back about a couple of houses.
It’s all quite exciting!
My Babe is still getting his business off the ground, so there are various things to do with that, in between the house viewings and box packing. He’s waiting for a website to be finished, but in the meantime, there’s his YouTube channel. Go and listen to some podcasts about songwriting, or relax with some music.
