Whew
Hello Peeps!
Coming to you from Stauffer Avenue.
A very good day is winding down to a midday break.
Yesterday after a medical appointment for Dennis here in town, we motored on to Mankato.
I visited Menards and purchased two more blinds, 72″ x 30″. Sweet.
Dennis took me out for an early birthday lunch. Far enough away from the actual date, so I wouldn’t be concerned about what was needed done at home. Sweet.
On the way out of Perkins, Dennis made sure he picked up a bag that was waiting for him when he paid the check. Last night we enjoyed carrot cake for dessert from Perkins. I should say . . . last night and today for a noon snack. Sweet.
In regard to purchasing blinds. I am requesting Kevin to put up blinds in four windows on my birthday. Of course new blinds have different brackets than those of 25 years ago. Kevin is in charge of taking the old brackets off and putting on the new. How could I not want to wash the windows and woodwork off before hand. Thank goodness for the silicone lubricant to help with pushing up the top sashing. Hmm. Hello outside! Even Dennis noticed how nice it was looking out of clean window panes.
A note on the installation of the blinds with brackets. The window woodwork is 100 years old. I put up brackets 25 years ago . . . how many other holes are there in the window woodwork?
The north windows have blinds taped up over them. I didn’t bother opening the two blinds boxes for the south windows. Those two windows have blankets taped over them with that great 3M strapping tape to hold them up.
As I said, I am on a mid-afternoon break and Dennis is making tuna, pea, white sauce and pasta for supper. Sweet.
In part some of our home has been homogenized and we are ready for new dust.
With that I take my leave. ♥
