8 months down, 12 to go…

[7 months... 6 months... 5 months... 4 months... 3 months... 2 months... 1 month]

dearest Nevis,

this feels a bit strange. writing my monthly letter from such a long-distance away. i miss you terribly and in many ways can’t wait to get back. absence truly has made the heart grow fonder. the morning of my flight was so rushed, i didn’t even get to bid a proper farewell. i hope you are healthy and happy and equally missing me terribly.

Saskatchewan is great, if a little cold and windy. i have sincerely enjoyed the frozen fingertips and nippy nose and almost painfully cold ears. but it will obviously be awesome (hello, understatement!) to get back to the warm winds and happy hammock and heavenly humidity.

and this month has a few other exciting things up its’ sleeve:
- hot water heater installed May 1st
- MED 3 starts May 6th
- Tiffany comes to visit May 7-15th

i am so excited about each and every thing on that list that i can hardly type them without including about a zillion exclamation marks.

!!!!!

i’ll be back soon. so very soon! only 3 sleeps! Saturday afternoon i’m really looking forward to napping in the happy hammock wrapped in a hug of your heavenly humidity.

blue skies ahead

all my love,
`Jennifer

    Love the Maddy shot.
    A lot can be said for warmth and humidity.
    But your hammock, desk, bike and headlamp are awaiting.
    Have a safe trip. Please give Maddy a hug from our mob.
    Joe

    Remember, you’re allowed a maximum of three exclamation marks per year. You’re already over your quota!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
