of household tasks, and we haven't even yet gotten to the inside decorating for Christmas.


We've been painting, re-hanging stained glass, hanging new art work, clearing out clutter to make room for houseguests over the holidays.

  "We can never obtain peace in the outer world until we make peace with ourselves." ~ Dalai Lama

"When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace." ~ Jimi Hendrix

With red walls in the living room, though, in a way it looks like Christmas all year round.
