FYI

For your information, the oven meal of last night was a winner.  The chopped up steamed broccoli was a great pairing with the chicken.  So much better than corn or mixed vegetables ever were.  Dennis commented the alfalfa was good.

Today I worked on the living room floor.  Traffic patterns were in need of TLC.  The remainder of the floor was in need of some spills of various kinds.  First the vac, then the wet mop and finally the stuff that makes the laminate look good.  By supper the floor can be walked on.

Tomorrow, the area on the west part of the living room will need the TLC.  Sometime last fall, I decided a rug under my teak rocker was going away permanently.  It could bunch up as I rocked and it for sure caught lint and such while not being easy to shake outside.  I didn’t notice scratches on the laminate.  It was more like a wax finish that was rubbed.  I will buff out the floor area before I apply the liquid rejuvenator.

Is this the start of spring cleaning for Grammie?  No . . . it’s just that what the eye sees, cannot be ignored.  Tiny homes need tending just like any other place.  Only, the larger the home, one’s eye gets weary of looking.  We no longer expect anyone to take off shoes when they visit as we surely do not.  A little bit of tidy tidy at a time, sure does beat having to clear out the entire house once it’s gotten away from me.  That can happen if I find myself down the rabbit hole of stitching, stitching, stitching . . . either in my bedroom porch or in the studio.

As I worked myself out of the house today with the flooring, I had left the front door open so I could get into my bedroom porch and the west part of the living room.  As I walked back and forth the boxelder bugs on the southwest corner of the house amongst the dirt were horrible.  We hardly had a break from those nasties since the fall of 2023.

With my back and butt cheeks being weary, I am so happy we will have a repeat of Dennis’ alfalfa pasta dish.

With that I take my leave.  ♥
