The reason for all the sudden home improvements around here.

Yup.

This is happening.

And so much sooner than I can believe.

This coming Sunday is

the Rock County Historical Society's 

Historic Home Tour

in 

Columbus Circle.

And we are on the schedule.

So if you live in Janesville and want to see our lovely neighbor in all it's charmingly,

quintessential glory

come on over...

This fall… well, it is almost fall… I am loving my Tweeds Black Cashmere sweater (give it up for consignment store scores!), Black Henleys from Target, Jeans, Aviators, my Rocket Dog flats and my new took-forever-to-get-here David and Young infinity scarf.

Cute together, yes.

But more importantly warm.

Even more so if I change things up a bit and throw on wool socks and these favorite boots.

Oh, and can’t forget my butter soft, perfectly broke-in leather purse.

Now I’m ready. Bring on the leaf fights, the bonfires, the sunset hikes and pumpkin-spice-everything!!

Last week's Art with E.

We made silk flower fairies.

Hope they have a warm place to hibernate...

Lately, what with all the cold, crisp nights, the later and later sunrises and the startlingly icy hardwood floors, this has been a much more difficult place to leave.

Harvested from my container garden.

So a little status update on our "light home improvements".

It's getting better, I think...

right...?

Yeah. Yeah, I think it's getting better...

It's gotta be getting better.
