We're going to read A Good Man is Hard to Find, by Flannery, on the Literary Life podcast, and Angelina is explaining where her stories are coming from. This is interesting, and helpful, because her work seems depressing to me, but it isn't supposed to be. So, I should be able to read it without being brought low, so to speak.
I realized the other day that it was May, and that means window-washing season. Except I so love to do it on days where it's breeze, dry and cool(ish), and it's not. It's like summer most of the time. But I've got to do it anyway, and I wash the bathroom window yesterday. Then I made a new curtain.
I have to figure out a valance, since I used all this gingham for the lower window. It isn't this dark; it's more of a slightly lime, summery shade, and I have a piece of cotton jersey which could be a valance, if I can figure out the shape, since it's a large scrap.
We're back to having regular bouts of rain, which makes garden prep kind of iffy. But I've been starting some seeds inside, and have a watermelon sprout, and a few Bachelor's Buttons, too.
Since we have gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, let us exercise them.
Romans 12:6
Love this and the verse
ReplyDeleteThanks, Elizabeth. :)
DeleteI love the pretty gingham curtain! We have had an extremely dry spring so far and mainly sunny too. The wind has been mostly from the north or north-east which has kept the temperature in check. I have loved the sunshine after such a gloomy winter and am not looking forward to the rain that is forecast for next week, though we do need it.
ReplyDeleteI don't think we're supposed to see the sun all week! More rain is scheduled, and cool temps.
