Dupont:
fascinating assortment of mops. Mine is the white with green stripes - works a charm on wood floors -most of ours! I need Mylene for the vacuum cleaning which my shoulders and safety - on the carpeted stairs - are a concern. However, she did not get here at expected time and I was missing my "grief group" so I texted her and she will come tomorrow. Today I shall try to finish that window; even with the storm sash closed, the cold is amazing! I cannot budge the actual window so must get it as clean as possible before R comes home - so it can be closed regardless! He has been gone since Saturday morning. The bridge -ICE! Still no snow tires as of last eve. Still looking for them!

Yesterday was strange - I realized I was feeling sad at not getting to the group --- ME?? a group of women - a gaggle of geese! I got there for most of it. An epiphany of sorts!

Mylene is coming at 9 am Thurs!! I have made great inroads into clearing lots of stuff - ignoring repairs! And realize I can store stuff in the pottery room!!! A store room is a wonderful thing to have! OK, so I am a bit dense at times! I will ask her to make the house as clean as possible.
