northern hemisphere agrarian calendar. In our a part of the world, which means
extra indoor time with fairly a number of beautiful afternoons to work exterior. Having
switched my inventive pursuits from writing to weaving, I really feel productive in a

his restrained state of affairs by butting
him (and us, if we’re not cautious.) It is all goofy play, however they’re tough
and their play just isn’t one thing the people wish to be caught in.
