Late Morning!  I woke up at 2:00am and didn't get back to sleep until 4:45am.  Not sure why, but I need get my sleeping patterns back to normal!

So, I was going to drive up to Vermont today but only half of the shipment from Amazon was delivered yesterday even though everything was scheduled for delivery yesterday.  I didn't want the rest of the things sitting outside all day.  Sure hope everything shows up today.  Plans have changed and I will try again next week.

When I was organizing my studio (with things brought back from the west) I did hang some of the things I made while waiting to come back to New York.  Remember these...

And my ode to fall...

Yesterday after bringing in four large boxes from Duchess, I opened the one with glassware.  Surprisingly, nothing was broken but it took hours of scrubbing to remove the soot.  Two things were very stubborn so I am putting them through the dishwasher (after all the scrubbing) to see if they come out clean.  If not, I guess it's time to get rid of those items.

The high today is a lot cooler...only in the high 60's!  It would be nice if the wind was less.  Lots of pine straw and leaves (and tree limbs) came down yesterday with all the wind.

My mattress did arrive yesterday...it's a mattress in a box...so I need to find a space to lay it out for a couple days to let it 'breathe' and rise to it's normal size.  I have had mattresses in a box before and find them very comfortable.  Hope this one is also.

Well, it's time to get to work...

Talk with you later...
