I’m not usually one to celebrate Valentine’s Day with any great enthusiasm, however, earlier this week I had a 3am burst of creativity and came up with a few comical climate change Valentines to share with friends and colleagues.

I’m happy to announce… the house is bought and paid for! So EXCITING! Even though we’ve been working on the house for a few weeks, it has taken forever to officially close. It’s a good thing for you too because I’d have very little to write about had we not, and you’d have a far more arduous afternoon trying to fill that extra 4.5 minutes of your day. I’m so glad you’re as happy about this as me.
The worst is over (or so I hope) after copious papers being signed, then lost by the airlines, then redone and notarized, debts incurred, and the long, long, long waiting period for us to get to this day. Now the fun can begin!
