Seattle under the murk?
We knew Tuesday was dreary and according to KOMO News, it was three times darker than a solar eclipse. The UW Atmospheric Sciences Department said Tuesday had the lowest solar output since December 2015, measuring only 0.61 Mega joules. On a summer day, Seattle nets over 30 Mega joules. No wonder I didn't leave the house all day. It never got light.
Hunkered over the hearth, cooking bone broth.
But yesterday was a different story. It stopped raining for a bit and we even had a few sun breaks. The West Seattle Nursery delivered the Christmas tree I picked out last week. When you buy one of their expensive (but very nice) trees, they will deliver for free. John trimmed the bottom and left it outside in a bucket until I get around to decorating. We need to pull all the boxes down from the attic crawl space.
I went to the Apple Store at Southcenter Mall for a class I've been going to on and off for several years. It started out as Aperture training (long gone) then morphed into something called "Open Studio," focusing on Pages. People bring in their creative projects, but you can ask questions about any current Apple dilemma or angst. I love the instructor and the same group of ladies show up almost every week. I'm working a cute collage of Maya and Nova photos to send with the Christmas cards.
So brief, dark November comes to a close. Bring on the holidays.
