RE: ~ 7 ~ See What I See in Seabright, Nova Scotia
I feel I am so behind in you and your MIL blogs, though I know @marionbowes is dealing with family things like house sales and assisted living.
I am also SO sorry to hear about the loss of your dear rooster. I know they are just chickens and we (chicken keepers) deal with death quite often, but one does still feel for the little dears, especially when they go by the 'hands' of their comrades in feathers. I am lucky with my current two roosters because they are best buds. I think it is because they were hatched together and they are a bantam breed and also cochins are known for being sweethearts.
I also feel you on the cold view. Shots out our windows could be decpetive too to see the sun on the sea but when you are huddled inside with a broken generator and a wood stove you can't use, the cold is REAL. Thank goodness we have power again and now to get a new generator!
We had really warm temps yesterday 45 F but today back down to 18 F (sorry too lazy to convert to C we American's are so backwards in everything we are MILES behind canadians-not kilometers, get it? I know poor joke.)
Well, now I need another sip of coffee and to get back through your feed and see what I missed. I hope the print that I sent you is ok, I didn't get to proof it IRL before I had it shipped so I hope the colours turned out ok. I should have sent it framed, but am never sure if that is presumptious to choose a frame colour for someone else.
Here is to staying warm on cold Eastern coastal Winter days...We are a tough lot though, we sea side dwellers.
I figured you guys would have got this same cold snap, and I'm sooo glad to hear that you have your warmth back inside Toad Hall!!
How blessed that your roos are best friends...<3 I'll have to keep my eye out for cochins in the future...
The print is absolutely 100% perfect and no frame necessary I couldn't even imagine the shipping on that Lady!! You did such a great thing already, we have our spot picked out, right on the kitchen wall <3 <3
Oh wonderful, I am so glad you liked it. When I knew I wanted to send your MIL the print of my sailing piece she liked I just HAD to do something for you.
We are warm again, but Winter isn't over and I'm dreading it. The only good thing out of it is it has inspired me to paint this entire new series of work featuring robot/android women and I am really getting into it. Funny where inspiration come, non?
You stay warm and safe .
