Welcomed Rain
There was thunder telling us rain could not be far behind. Not very much lightning, which is a good thing.
The rain and wind was a combination that induced sleep.
Dennis had made arrangements to pick up Dwayne for coffee at McDonald’s. When he came home he mentioned all the farmers around South Branch had come in. Lots of talking ensued. As usual Dennis made whips around town for them to take in all things that are in the works. The best news that Dennis shared with me is that we are the owners of the heavy duty implement trailer that was Dwayne’s and we have been storing for him. Hats off! Some time in the future Kevin and Kersten will need to find room for this trailer as Dennis said he would be handing it over to them when he is done using it.
Today I was folding laundry as yesterday I got laundry pods home. Dennis always wears a pocket tee-shirt either solo or under a shirt or jacket. He may go through two in one day depending on what he is doing. As laundry loads are forthcoming, I will put them on hangers. That will be much easier on my hands and arms rather than the folding process so they look tidy. I would never just take them from the dryer and cram them in a drawer getting all wrinkled. I take pride in how Dennis goes out and about.
The next thing on my docket was working on Dennis’ bed coverings. He likes the weight and heft that he equates with warmth 12 months a year. I do believe he sleeps restless enough that he gets balled up in all the layers of coverings and falls out of bed. First time, I thought nothing of it. With that happening too often, tonight we will see if having only one cover will work better. That one cover is a down and polyester filled cover encased in a cotton duet flannel covering that is easily laundered. My such cover is the summer weight. Dennis’ is several levels denser as he is always cold sleeping with an electric mattress pad, plus flannel sheets, plus a heavy flannel two-sided quilt with heavy batting that I had made for him, plus the double layer of polar fleece. This one cover fits all of those and can be pulled over one way or another. If it gets kicked off there is only one cover to pull back on and over for warmth. The mattress pad may still be turned on with the fitted bottom sheet. Time will tell.
All Dennis needed was a list that he needed and what we like on our one Subway Tuna on cheese bread 12″ sandwich for our suppertime. All we can handle is cutting that 12″ into 6″ portions for each of us. Perfect suggestion.
With that I take my leave. ♥
