I want to be this lady when I grow up. If she doesn’t win THIS time, maybe NEXT time…

I just had to tell my husband that the CPU he was hoping would be delivered today probably wouldn’t be, due to this being Inauguration Day and Martin Luther King Day. He was NOT a happy camper.

My daily sessions in my closet are definitely starting to show. (We are ignoring the fact that the closet has needed to be cleaned out now for several years now.) We are just concentrating on the fact that it’s getting better daily. Yesterday I started cleaning out my cubbyhole shelves, and that spilled over into one of my bureau drawers. It’s all resulting in a good, strong clean-out with a hefty donation to the Veterans Thrift Store the next time we go to Fort Smith.

I deep-scrubbed our stove top yesterday, running all the parts on top through the dishwasher while I concentrated on the rest of the top. My husband was in the Marine Corps, and came away with several rather unfortunate phrases he uses to this day. One of them is the highest compliment Marines can pay to a job of cleaning. He looked at the stove top when it was all back together and pronounced it, “Shining like a diamond in a goat’s ass.” (If you’ll pardon the expression.)

Due to all the work in the kitchen and the closet, I didn’t make it up to my art room to continue wood burning on the squirrel. Hopefully, I can make time for that today.

Shout out to Sheila – a recipient of the snow we had recently. I have apologized to her about this inadvertent ‘gift.’ I also apologize to any other recipients.

Enjoy your day today.
