Windows were Opened

For a time this morning I had the east and west windows open before the traffic of 18 wheelers was heavy.  Though we have a concrete street running in front of our home, with no rain for a long time to rinse it off it makes its own dust.

The same thing happens in the studio.  The concrete floor is ever flicking off tiny particles to make dust and keep me on my toes with the vacuum.  I have one piece of jute carpeting in front of the ironing board.  Would I want carpeting over the remainder of the studio?  No.  Threads can intertwine with carpet fibers as if that is how they came from the factory.  Dropped pins are the same way.  I have a great magnet that Dennis gave me.  Nothing like a magnet on a stick!

I took my walk this morning to the north.  There has been so much commotion of the rebuilding of the street in that direction, I needed a looksee for myself.  Not to worry.  The old lady with the cane stayed far back.

There isn’t a lot going on at Stauffer Avenue.  I can work my whiles in the studio and make slow progress on a quilt project.  I can get into mischief with my computer.  That being said, all is right with the world.
