Let the Sunshine In

Let the sunshine in and face it with a grin.

Every morning I have a choice and I choose to grin and say, “Good Morning.”  If I am lucky I get a wave.  I’ll take it.

This morning the latest framed stitched design found a spot on the living room wall with the two previous ones.  Again, the small brass hangers with a fine needle nail going in at an angle worked great.  Actually, there was a previous hole in the paneling.  Just a short tap to make sure all would be well.

There is a new book started in my bedroom porch.  Also there is a new stitched item started.  This new project has a new challenge.  It is not a single color for stitching.  It is a kit using 54 colors.  Before making a donation of the floss, I had taken out one of each color.  There is eight yards of floss on each skein.  When doing a project with multiple colors, each color may not take more than a dozen or two stitches.  I have not done color swapping in stitching for decades.  Nothing ventured, nothing gained.  It will take me some time and I am fine with that.

Contentment is my game and I have found it within our little home on Stauffer Avenue.

Dennis does not make it for very many days and he needs to get the little red pickup out to see what is going on around the town.

The city crews are cutting and trimming trees.  The sound of the shredder can be heard.  Many small projects have been done around town with this open winter.

With that I take my leave.  ♥
