      I think the biggest thing is not being able to hang pictures. That’s usually the first thing I do in a space to make it feel like ‘home.’ Here, there’s almost zero wall space, and since it’s a rental, I don’t want to chance command strips pulling off paint. Thanks for watching!!

    Hi Daphne,
    We've had un - seasonally nice and fairly warm here in Quebec, we've had very little rain, although a chance of a storm November 30. More November - ish type weather, still wearing a light jacket.
    One of my new fav programs is Matlock with Cathy Bates as Matlock.
    Always enjoy ur videos, they are very relaxing, we were baking while listening to day.
    Can't wait to see ur finishing painting.

    Have a great day

    A lot of food companies have done that. Dryers/Brewers ice. Ream, same price, less quantity. Butter in California is still expensive. Eggs have been a little less. Hopefully come spring you'll find a permanent place. As always, thanks for sharing your WIP.
    Back in the day when TAB soda was big, a friend of mine would fill her trunk up with cases when she went Oxnard, CA when she visited her parents. They had change to sacrine which she turned out to be allergic to. But down there they still had the old formula. Crazy.

    Hey Daphne, another thing might be rain pants. They also make great wind breakers - keeps your heat in. They generally have zippers at ankles to pull on over your boots. Layers! MEC is the Canadian equivalent of REI their store brand is very good and affordable! I will wear a jacket I purchased in Canada more than 20 years ago - granted it has some permanent smudges and burn holes 🔥 from campfires, but was a good purchase. I wore it 500 miles hiking the AT.
