Literally everyone else died. The girl was here but she went to Peru. Smart girl. She's the real smarty pants.

I've decided to hang blankets in the doorways so I've crafted some expansion rods and blankets with hoops with clips to put on the rods. I may also do the front and back outside facing doors if this seems to help keep the warmth inside. I'm dreading the power bill.

The clips are rough on the fingers but it's something to do short of sewing, putting buttonholes in the blankets. Maybe a little more expensive but the blankets were on sale.

The wind is supposed to be brutal so every little bit helps.

I really like your moniker. I have French Huguenot ancestors and love the language.

I hope for the best for you and your family. Thank you for your kind words.❤️
