Good day all,
Well, I got my chores done today. Just a minor job of cleaning the kitchen window from all the dirt and grime that stuck to it over the winter. It might not sound like much, but it was about a half-hour job by the time I finished cleaning the track and the area around the window. It looks much better now, even if it is an overcast day and rain is predicted.
Yesterday I spent HOURS weeding in the backyard. I was totally spent when I finished that. It sure takes a lot longer as we age to do things that we could get done in half the time years ago.
I have a few photos in addition to the fish eye FIRE HOUSE HOSES I posted last week. Here is one of them taken with a normal lens. I edited the composition to remove the white rack that the jacket was hanging up against, but decided it didn't look as good with it left in. My husband agreed. I did not think it was a fitting photo for Memorial Day, and my husband, having served in the military, agreed that Memorial Day was created to honor our fallen soldiers who gave the ultimate sacrifice in war.
I don't know about you, but the more I stared at this photo, the glassier my eyes got.
