Sunset the evening of my last post, taken on our way home from Salem |
The next morning's sunrise was considerably less colorful, and the last one we've seen since |
Clouds moving in that day, over the neighbors' new shop |

Dear Jackson has had a tough week, which weighs heavily on me. At least he can truly sleep now that he's lost some of his hearing. Prior to that loss, he always had one eye open, keeping an eye on everything around him – a true watchdog.
There is now an ornament on our little borrowed tree, my annual dated bulldog birthday gift from dear friend Debbie. Hopefully he's not lonely, because I'm still liking our minimalist approach this year..
I started one last knitting project of the year, using leftovers from three of my last four projects.
I don't know who it's for yet; whether it will go in the gift dresser or reveal itself to be just the thing for someone in need this week. Will try to stay 'tuned in' while prepping for our simple family Christmas. On tomorrow's agenda: dipping fresh cranberries in chocolate!
That's it for now from . . .

Your dear, sweet, lovable Jackson may be progressing toward his final oh-so-earned peaceful sleep. That picture of him zonked out on the floor made me want to lie down next to him, cuddle up and perhaps nap along with him.
I do that, Mama Pea – lay down beside him and just stroke him and tell him I love him. (I'm too old for the floor to be comfortable enough to sleep on!)
That Jackson. Such a sweet face. These furry pieces of our heart are on this earth for too short a time, while other less noble loving creatures (no naming names) linger far too long.
Your skies are always so breath taking. We rarely see such a display.
Oh, Michelle! I wish i could help pour the love on your sweet Jackson! I love dogs so much. We need them in our lives, yet it's so tough when the end comes.
Your photos are beautiful, as always!
Your new creation will surely be beautiful.
I'm sorry about your woodshed. Maybe tarps would help for short term protection?
Blessed holidays!
Oh! You are already using tarps!
I neglected too say that your little Bulldoggie ornament is adorable!!
Jackson is the sweetest dog - I'm with Mama Pea. I'd gladly curl up with him. Of course, it's unlikely that I would be able to uncurl at this point in my dotage. Still. So sorry about your woodshed - it's hard when there are more things that need to be fixed than budget to pay for it! Sending you and Jackson hugs and love.
