It is late, but my mother wanted to talk from St Louis, and so I am still up and thinking. I want to buy this piece of property in Kettle Falls, WA, and build a 20 x 20 foot cabin that is cool in summer and warm in winter. I finally gave up on the Chico's clothes, and bought a bunch of underwear and yoga clothing from their sister site, which is not as exciting as an orange suede jacket, but I am certain to wear it more often. I need to do some sort of clothing purge. Laura is in town, so maybe she can come look and decide if anything is hippie-dorable, so I won't feel such parting loss. I have plans to make some homemade rootbeer syrup in the near future. This has not felt like a very productive day, I am afraid.
