Hello Jo! Hello Bren! Hello YOU!

Hallo Hallo!
Finally a letter has arrived! Was I busy these last few weeks? Yes indeedy! Was I often ill? Yes! (I'm not so keen on that answer, yet it is what it is), but I will admit that neither of those kept me from restarting the letter so much as just needing some Time Out to romp and frolic, think and ponder, and be a very Jovvi Jo and, er... Brenny Bren? 

The weekly letter has been started from scratch and so I thought to myself, why is my bum so itchy today? After thinking that I also thought, since we have a few new readers in the mix, maybe we should let them get to know who's who in our zoo of 2?

So let me re-introduce ourselves to everyone! (It's actually pretty exciting, isn't it?)

JOBREN:

Specimen A - Jo (This would be me, I know, I checked!)



Specimen B - Bren (He comes as a standard with the Jo, very fetching!)


There we go, (re)acquainted once more!  ^_^

I'll leave out extra photos and pics and 'oh la la's' for this week's letter but next week? And the week after? Oooooooh!!! I can't promise you won't be madly BLOWN away each and every time! So to lessen the impact please make sure to read each weekly letter sitting down, with a warm cuppa something to slurp on and something soft and squishy to squeeze delightedly! That aught to do it!

In other news:

I have started writing poems. More serious sorts than the ones I'm known for, but very very short!
(Seriously haiku is long compared to mine!) I was going to attach a few here but suddenly feel shy! Next letter maybe?

Our weather this week will reach high's of 26C! This is not even Spring weather but straight on into Summer. *Tosses a twig of plum blossoms onto winter's grave - Oh, it was too young to go!*  

Bren might try rock climbing this Friday! I will then attempt rock climbing spectatorship! If he plummets spectacularly you will be the first to know about it! 

I have started studying French. Again!
It has been my nemesis since I was in high school where I failed it spectacularly and wept all the way home - while riding my stegosaurus because it was that long ago...
Now I want to be friends with it and maybe, finally, be able to write more than:
"Pour couper le fromage!"  <-- a sentence that was still surprisingly useful throughout my adult years...

Oh oh lastly, I was asked why we call ourselves JoBren and not BrenJo?
But doesn't JoBren sound so much cuter and lively? BrenJo sounds like something you hear a person strumming in a bayou somewhere you seriously shouldn't have wandered into...

And that is all for now!
Have a marvelously fantastic week and I hope you get to see at least one thing that makes you go, "Oh Wow, lookit!" 

From the couple who seem to live these movements - and aren't they grand?
~JoBren

Hi hi hi! How are you?  This would be, Blog letter 2!   Isn't it a fine thing to get another letter to read? Or is it finer that I get to write it? Symbiosis! ^_^ If Winter be dead, let the scents of mourning flowers linger on! <-- Jo attempts Shakespeare! Oh the jasmine of Spring though! And roses! And freesias and a thousand other little cheerful-faced flowers who's names I don't know as we haven't been officially introduced (Though they don't smell any less amazing for being anonymous!)  Now if we could just get a good, hard, drenching of rain, what sight that would be! I opened my cellphone camera while it was against the towel-covered treadmill screen and this was the result! Enchanting little lights in blue, white and purple and bubbling up and down the screen! This photo can only hint at how fascinating it was!  But here was my view at about 6.15am this morning!  The sun was only just getting out of bed and there's just one mermaid in the pool at the m

Good Morning! Actually it's late night when I started this, but see how we experience the timeless power of the internet?! How have you been? I think that if you haven't swallowed anything you too deeply regret then we're already off to a great start! There is talk, gossip and tentative theories that we might have a bit of a cold(er) snap on Friday, one last grasping at our ankles by winter, clawing its way up from the grave! I will make sure that fluffy socks are at the ready!!  My explorations into Calligraphy continue this week! But not just any kind of fancy doodling, oh no no, rather 'other languages I can't understand at the best of time and will probably royally offend with my writings ' type of calligraphy! This was my first attempt: According to Google Translate it says exactly what it should: Then I tried Arabic! I wrote this Right to Left and just the fact that it fit on the page was already more of a win than expected - I have new respect for people
