Day 431 Mr. Draft and The Ladybird Kindergartens

Doors and windows are winter proof :-) I am indeed proud of myself :-) Painting, drilling and cleaning. Can DIY be creative and bring creative fulfilment? Or is it just a kind of manual labour that we sometimes call therapeutic? I would say it is like design. You’ve got a brief that needs to be explored and improve by constant problem solving. The gap between the door and the doorframe was forced to disappear today. ‘Woohoo! Mr. Draft, you’ve got to stay outside.’ I said. ‘Boohoo’ he cried and started to depart. I sadly also had to close several Ladybird Kindergartens at the window corners. All the insects from The Garden want to relocate to the House before the winter. While I am trying to keep them outside to keep Mr. Draft’s company, they just want to snuggle in a tiny crack and become invisible for months. Mosquitoes, flies, stinking beetles and smaller ones and bigger ones and all sorts I have no idea what they are even called. But they are all part of The Garden, which makes them exceptional.
