Dry Snow
It may sound ridiculous but an inch of dry snow it was. It took just a short while and I had the front deck and steps swept off. I think Dennis feels better as well as he got the faithful “Kevin snowblower” started for the first time this fall and winter season. Good dose of fresh air all around.
Solutions are out in this huge world. Seek and ye shall find. We have had numerous problems with coffee filters collapsing as the hot water washes over the coffee grounds. In today’s mail was a box that contained Bunn coffee filters. Their round bottoms are broad and settle right into the appropriate place. They are also very tall and will withstand water sloshing into them. No more coffee grounds in the bottom of my coffee cup. Sweet.
In tomorrow’s mail, I am expecting the crushed walnut shells I have ordered. They work perfectly to fill pin cushions for hand stitching sewing needles. The pins stay placed as well as keeping the sewing needle’s tip sharp.
This ole Grammie could run her legs off in Mankato looking and seeking what I require, which isn’t a whole lot. The right item for the correct expectations in all things great and small.
I am staying on the main floor today. Reading for me is like watching television for the ole cowboy. While I am doing some hand stitching I am contemplating on the finish of my “HOME” wall hanging. My first step is to try out glue on a sample of a panel to see if it will hold and support the brackets or such to hang up the finished product. The glue I am thinking of is the same glue Kersten and I used to glue the cement antlers onto the cement deer in the flower garden. That deer, out in the weather, has shown off that repair for five years or more. We will find out how that same glue will hold onto the fiberglass. Of course . . . I have that glue on hand. Mini Michael’s Craft Store right in my studio.
With that I take my leave. ♥
