Self Satisfaction

I can’t put a price on self satisfaction.  Doing for myself is better than any pill or prescription.  Once the three living room windows had been freshened up, complete with a changeout of valences, I knew the rest of the living room needed a once-over.  

Out came my small vac off of the attic steps. Dennis was on hand to move all the furniture into the center of the room and I could work at my own pace.  With a bag of various attachments, the rest of the day fell into place.  I don’t mind taking multiple breaks.  It is a treat knowing that I can mange my home’s needs.  I don’t have any problem asking for help in reaching when it takes both arms.  The left arm is gaining strength and the left hand fingers have come a long way being team players.  Sweet! 

Dennis took over to vac out the lint trap in the clothes dryer inside as well as on the outside of the house.  Damp lint can really stick to surfaces.  I can attest to how hot the next load brings the temp of the clothes to.  Warding off a dryer fire . . . got it done.

I have the remains of last night’s oven dish out of the refrigerator so we can each decide how much to microwave for supper.   

Saturday nights I enjoy several mystery shows on PBS.  After my shower, the challenge will be not checking my eyelids for cracks, aka: napping.  I had a great workout today.  Who knows what tomorrow will bring!
