Day to day stuff....a memoir without order. |
It's raining cats and dogs and frogs here in North Central Florida with more storms to come tomorrow and a big drop in temperature. We need the rain but I'm not looking forward to the cold. The birds fed early this morning somehow knowing what was coming and now I watch an empty feeder and a raindrop splashing birdbath outside my window. When I opened the mini blind on that window yesterday morning, all the slats slowly slanted to the left and I expected to be buying a new replacement, but you know me, try to fix it first. I got out my 2-step stepladder and miracle of miracles was able to climb it...several times...and I was able to "fix" the blind. In my "elevatory" mood, I imagined hanging a rainbow colored scarf across the top of the window to brighten up my painting/writing/office room. I had one that was a perfect fit (36 inches across) so I draped it over the now installed curtain rod as though a valance was at the top...very cute! And this morning my blind continues to work correctly with my very brightened work area on this very gloomy day. So now I wait for the ides of March to do their thing. Stay safe and happy! |
