New door!

Finally we got our new door and glass installed. Next up some fresh paint and a new security screen. Yay! So much better and safer and hopefully more weather-proof.

Roses and mint water

Our mint had been growing like a weed. So I decided to use it the other day. Yum! Roses have been blooming again recently. And we've had beautiful weather :)

Ledge beach romp

Took Miski to the beach this week. As usual we had the place to ourselves which still blows my mind. Lots of dead fish on the beach for some reason. Miski had a blast and enjoyed her new floaty toy. The weather has been amazing lately. This is the best time of year apparently. From now through may.

Curtains

Have been painting the second bathroom white and put up a mock curtain to cover the ugly window. I'm not good at sewing and this was my first stab. Better than a bare window at least.

Happy puppy

Miski has been playing with this rawhide Xmas ornament for a few days, carrying it back and forth between rooms and burying it in her duvet on her little bed. Finally ate it today very happily. What a cute girl.

Yay robot vacuum!

Thank you mom and ray! What an awesome Xmas gift- the gift of clean floors and extra time. I hate vacuuming and Miski sheds like its her job. Today I came home to a clean living/dining room. Awesomeness. Now if only they could invent a robot to do my dishes and put them away and I'd be set. Other jobs like refinishing furniture, painting the house, re-caulking the bathroom...no problem.

Mint and peppers

Our mint and peppers have been growing very well! I have to bring some to work because its too much for me. They are so beautiful and fragrant. Next spring i am going to plant some other herbs and veggies :) still waiting for the figs to ripen.
