Very, very slowly I am getting things cleared out of the house. When I look around I don't see that much of a difference, but I know that dresser is empty, those shelves are clear, that cabinet is now useful. There are fewer plants in the house and more empty space. There are also a couple pieces of furniture that will be removed over the next couple weeks and that will help even more. I still have a long way to go, but it is getting better.

A few weeks ago I decided to make mint honey. I just finished straining it this morning and it tastes wonderful. I think it will be great in tea this winter to give us a bit of a boost. Of course it is pretty good in the iced tea I had. Because of my success I've decided to try out some lavender honey. Since I had to use dried flowers I'll be leaving it in the jar much longer, but if it turns out nicely as well, I can bottle it and give it as gifts this Yule. Much faster than trying to knit something for everyone.

I'm not sure what kind of car I'll be getting, but the right one will come along soon. I hope.
