So . . . Do Tell!
It is official from two sources, one on each end of town, that we got three plus inches of rain in a slow and steady all-day rain.
The rain is all it took to hear the hum that had not been heard for some time, lawnmowers. Dennis was right in there with them. The weeds had continued to grow and they needed to be trimmed back right along with whatever else was green. Dennis has learned to take two days to get the acreage done as the back and arms sent him a strong message.
Today Amazon delivered the last item for my bedroom porch’s reading and stitching corner. Years back most shops had a clamp-on light fixture that could be angled via springs on the main hub. My clamp-on unit that was delivered is similar but different. There is no light fixture at the end, but a clamp to hold my hoop for stitching. Sweet. Until it has been used for a time, the clamp is really tight . . . enter stage right . . . Dennis. My left hand is really going to enjoy not having to hold the hoop. For the sum of $24.99 it does the job of the expensive wooden standalone hoop holders.
For several days this week, Carrie and Megan are in Las Vegas at the largest USA marketing event for 2024’s merchandise. What a sweet event for them to share. Later on this month, Kersten will be flying to New York for her endeavor. My special people do get around. When Dennis and I talked about it, he was thrilled for them, as he and I couldn’t take it.
I did take in some stitching this morning in the studio for my next scrappy quilt. I realize it. I am admitting to it. I am overanalyzing the scrappiness of it. Good grief. It did take my repair man, Dennis, to replace the batteries in the radio for KNUJ to be enjoyed.
Our oven meal of last night was a hit. There will be a re-run of it this evening.
Take care everyone!
