Winds Down
As the week winds down, I can reflect on a very successful amount of energy expanded here on Stauffer Avenue. We are not the fastest couple. We are intent on taking care of life and limb. You can add home-owner savvy to that.
If the weather had not turned nasty hot that encouraged all sort of annoying bugs in the air, we would have had our next conquest in the history books. There is a wonderful octagon window in our bathroom that cries for TLC every several years. The mill-work around the exterior of the window is very poor quality. In the coming days, the small step stool that is sitting under the window on our sidewalk will be put to use. The cracking, peeling paint will be done away with. There may even be some E6000 glue used where needed. That glue will hold like no other. I cannot even remember when Kersten and I glued the antlers back onto the cement deer that we have in the yard. Yup, tried and true product. When the weather turns, the cast off paint chips will fly.
I didn’t waste the morning. The studio was busy. As of two this afternoon, there is a patriotic project that has been sandwiched and made secure with my huge safety pins. You know. . . the red ones that operate quite easily. If I visit the studio tomorrow, my first task will be to select the correct color of thread with which to quilt it under the needle. One step at a time.
We will have the remainder of the tuna oven dish for supper. Sweet.
September will be noted as going from hot to very cool, back to hot. All four seasons in one month.
With that I will take my leave. ♥
