Dennis is off to a three day weekend taking in a trade show. Different location, different buds to visit with makes for a well rounded outlook. Dust bunnies didn’t stand a chance with me today. I started in the northwest corner of the house and kept moving until I got to the southeast corner. Beds were stripped, windows on three sides of the house were cracked. My weekend will start with fresh air in the house being ready for new dirt and new lint. My treat for the weekend was getting a few grocery items that I am partial to . . . Nature Sweet Cherub tomatoes were on the top of the list.

The best news to celebrate was that I received emails this morning that both the federal and state income tax forms have been accepted. Dennis just scratched his head wondering what the world has come to with what can be accomplished with a computer. Admittedly my world would seem diminished without a computer and all that I can access with just a few finger strokes. I could very well do without the telephone and tele-marketers. There is no such thing as a “do not call” option. They are sneakers.

Now that the government has been satisfied with our tax returns, the house has been tidied, and I have a container of peanut butter cookies to pull out of the freezer for Dennis when he returns home, I give myself permission to enter the sewing studio tomorrow. I do put restrictions on myself. It really is all about balance in my life.
