around my house, grey morning

Boy, it's a a grey morning in New Hampshire. I hope you have some sun where you are because this is fairly de-press-ing. Yesterday, however, was warm enough for me to wear a couple layered sweaters and go for two long walks. It was really good for me and I could feel myself shedding more of the winter blahs with each step. I have to do the same thing today (bringing our cars to the mechanic's for inspection and then going back to pick them up equals 3-mile walks each way.)

Here's my house this morning. Not much light to be had. The first couple pictures of streamers and tulips are evidence of a birthday party we had over the weekend. The last picture of the vintage cross stitch pillow cover is a antique shop score I debated putting in the shop but realized it was destined to be mine. I made a pillow insert for it a couple nights ago and it's on my chair next to the wood stove. As Martha would say, it's a freaking good thing.
