Thread Name: Summer 2014 Exercise the right to declutter!
Subject: RE: Summer 2014 Exercise the right to declutter!
SRS: Anyone can use it! I wrote it during long trips back and forth on 13 Km of road so bad it was May before I knew if it was gravel or paved! Some of each. Pete was referred to me by a couple of single women. He is a dream of a mechanic. He fixes things without costing six arms and 32 legs. Of course I figured I paid for his new bathroom anyway. Old cars are SO expensive. So I bought a new one and saved a bundle. Pete missed me! I missed him also; we had great conversations in that drafty garage heated with a big wood furnace! Now he is on the main road and had several employees and does not even have to work every day! So I shall take him his limerick this week - 25 years later! I had to think about that!! WOW! We were so much younger then. When I "wrote that, I did not even have a computer.

I still have not gotten away from this one today. Too wet to go out. I did make a quick trip before the rain to pick up a 50 pound bag of epsom salt to take to the folks with whom we are staying in Ontario. Much cheaper than the drug store.

Tomorrow: massage at 10 am, then to country to load pottery, start a bisque firing, let the electric co. read the meters, go to writers' group and come back to city. So excited about this trip!
