The grass is so lush for this time of year. Dennis mowed with the rider on the entire yard. It wouldn’t be a bad thing if this was the last, but with rain . . . who knows? Today I needed 8 fairly small hooks from which to hang small circular curtain rods for the new basement windows. I had lace curtains that were brought out of retirement for such a project as this. Light can filter through while providing privacy. After all, our basement windows on the south are a mere 15′ from Stauffer Avenue.
Of course, small town retailers . . . six hooks of the same size and I had to settle on the last two having a much larger shank. Putting the screws up above my head was a real challenge. Once I got them going, I used a screw driver hooked into the curve of the hook to use as the force needed to twist them in. The yard looks good, no one can look into our basement windows, and we deem it a good day. Who knows what tomorrow will bring.
