"For us, our house is not insentient matter—it has a heart, and a soul, and eyes to see us with; and approvals, and solicitudes, and deep sympathies; it is of us, and we are in its confidence, and live in its grace and in the peace of its benediction. We never come home from an absence that its face does not light up and speak out its eloquent welcome—and we can not enter it unmoved."
—Mark Twain, 1896

Journal entry

Last night it was warm in my room when I retired with “Big Jack”, so I opened the window and got cozy with the Lieutenant and Detective Peabody.

Forgetting to shut the window when I closed my book to fall into a dream, I opened my eyes this morn’ and could see my breath.


The rooftops, fence posts, trees, everything within eye shot was covered in ice. I had to scurry to reach my robe and skedaddle out of my ‘ice-locker’. The thick cold mist had fallen into my room and made itself at home whilst I slept.

Now, as I write, remnants of ice sparkle in the sun’s rays, and overhead, Sea Gulls fly in circles.
It proves to be a great day.
