Abundance is servitude. My technology is cranky. A letter has gone awry; one with a check in it. And clothes. and clothes…. Continue Reading

Sunday in the park…

Action is action…

Minor things done today, like choosing a new drawer to keep my cutlery in after living here for over six years. Also learned that there has never been a worthwhile “Children of the Corn” Movie. Tags: chores, clutter, daily photo… Continue Reading
