Well, I'm in the process of packing up to move down the hill one block. (The museum I have lived in for a total of more than 12 years is scheduled to begin renovation early next month and I'm told that I don't want to be here when they start taking down the plaster.)

I have three pockets to pitch to: one to keep and take down the hill with me, one to donate to Salvation Army and Friends of the Library and one that will go out with the garbage. My plan and hope is that what I take with me will be the smallest pocket.

Now, however, I have come down with a juicy cold ao I'm slowed down. Am baking bread but that's about the extent of my householdy chores today. Did take Meggie, my little Cairn, on a longish walk though.
