Living With Danger

We had snow overnight but we are now in the middle of freezing rain--a good reason to stay inside even if it wasn't Friday the 13th.  The task I've assigned myself this morning is to clear the stairway to my loft studio.  My 'EntrĂ©e des artistes' is a little bit 'dangereuse'.

It has a collection of mailing paraphernalia, frames, printing materials and art supplies.  Let's see. What else can we see in my photo?  A beautiful teatowel from Bookhou that was far too pretty to put anywhere other than on a wall. (I will have to show you my lovely Bookhou collection some day.)  Dogs toys on their way to my sewing machine in the loft to be repaired. And, oh yes, a Magic 8 Ball because you just never know when you might need to ask a question.

O, wondrous Magic 8 Ball, should I clear the stairway to my loft today?

Oh no, this can't be good. The Magic 8 Ball seems to be broken.  I can't even see its answer. On Friday the 13th.  I might need to go back to bed.

  2. Arounna--Your Bookhou towel/wall art is a shining light to me as I climb those loft stairs (and they will be clean!). :) I will do a whole blog post someday on all of the beautiful Bookhou things we own here. Thank you for saying that about my banner. That means so much to me.♥

  3. Ooh gosh, that looks organised to me? It takes quite a bit of doing having everything ready to post for your shop! I have been manic this past 2 weeks and things have spread out of my workroom, everywhere! I daren't take a photo of my mess....aaaagh! Got to work all weekend too, but then I will try and tidy...honest

  4. Julie--It doesn't feel neat as I teeter up the stairs. Glad I'm not the only one to spread things around as I work. Good luck with all of your work. The nice side of that is it means you are very much in demand. :)

  5. i am not at all superstitious , in the 2percent that isn;t according to the cbc radio today but i had to get gas this morning and the machine wouldn't give me back my credit card.
    I had to wait patiently in the freezing cold until a man with a screw driver and a pair of scissors came to free it.

  6. Margie--Tell a superstitious person that story, Margie, and all they can do is smile knowingly. :)

  8. Sonia-- :) We are in love with Bookhou here. The snow is quite lovely here right now. The freezing rain only lasted a little while. There's actually a bit of sun this morning. I need to get my camera out!
