It's been rainy and in the 50s since Friday. We needed the rain desperately, but the timing was poor for all the people who were looking forward to kicking summer off properly.

Next week 80s, following week 90s and 100s.

I am ashamed of the dust and clutter in my house. Often was that way through the years.
-
I am trying to fix from plaster ( then paint), wash some walls ( then paint), do some exterior scraping/ painting/repair, grow grass from seed where I took out garden. I should also do some painting on some storm windows. Also should do some bed work before the weeds take over.
-
I should replace ( get replaced) my water heater.
-
maybe get a different vehicle.
-
throwing stuff out and DUST in house.... will probably wait til I am closer to dead ! or I get that other stuff done. : )
-
Vacuuming is near last also.
----------
I wish dust was my only job to do. : )

sweep the floors

put away the laundry

clean up the storage room so it can become a craft room

tidy up the basement

etc.



I did solve one problem by being sneaky and putting my son in charge of the kitchen!
