#coffee How to cope when there's a frozen pipe in the house. More coffee and no one dies...

#Victorianholidaycards I think this is probably a rendering of the old rhyme: Three little kittens, they lost their mittens and they began to cry... So cheerful. 🤷

Another one of the frog on frog combat holiday cards. Warm wishes you dying thing you.

#Lifehappens I never have to worry about sleeping too late. I have a dog...

This morning she got me up around 1:30 a.m. and insisted something was so wrong I had to be an alert woman warrior.

I listen because she's felt tornadoes coming before the weather service knows they're on the way.

She settled about half an hour ago.

Me? There's not enough coffee in the known universe to get the through the day. But I might end up immortal.

I won't post tons of them, but it's a feature of my main FB account.

Plus vintage cards for other winter celebrations.

I just find the Victorians view of the holidays intriguing.

Killing a robin or a wren was considered good luck in December. Particularly on Saint Stephen's Day on Dec. 26th.
