Winter is on the way

The brilliant fall leaves have faded and fallen. The basil has survived the frost at night but its days are numbered! Went to the Art Gallery of Ontario for the Ai Wei Wei exhibit which was very poignant after being in China so recently. We saw only the surface of that amazingly complex society. Waiting for a furnace to be installed at home. Our fireplace is doing a valiant job of keeping the chill out if the air. I am thrilled that my jewellery production in the summer has resulted in $900 for my contribution to our United Way campaign at work. Can't wait to do more and focus on the metal work rather than the entrancing beads.
