Very Few
WE have had very few raindrops this afternoon. The map shows various areas and then the rain disperses.
My objectives today . . . were very few. Not for lack of ideas to pursue, just allowing the simple pushing of buttons on the washer and dryer to still show evidence of local effort with very little excursion. It is satisfying to have an empty laundry basket with the laundry folded and tucked away.
There were several YouTubes that were interesting.
Dennis has been collecting the Hesston belt buckles. One issued every year since 1974. Dennis’ two sons were both in high school rodeos during their years in school. Jeff won the all around events year after year and won a beautiful saddle. Hmm. Non of the four remaining children of Dennis wanted it after Jeff passed away. AJ said he would take care of his uncle’s saddle until such time that a family member was hit with sentiment. I realize a saddle on its own stand may not work in everyone’s home. Son Kenny will be heading back to Arizona sometime this week and the belt buckles are going home with him. Buckles and the cases. It does bring a peace knowing that decisions can be made when it works for the one that has had ownership.
My wares in our home have always been those of high utility. Nothing ornate. The fanciest I ever had was Onida silverware from collecting Betty Crocker box tops.
I have stabbed and poked a few threads this afternoon. Enough to allow me to feel some semblance of creativity.
I did hear from Megan this afternoon. That is always food for my soul.
This next week, our schedule is non-existent. As I had been busy with the deck, the octagon window, washing my porch windows and some yard spraying, other than the meals and laundry . . . the surfaces high and low have been ignored. Hmm. That may count as a week’s schedule.
With that I will take my leave. ♥
