Didn't get outside because it started to rain so climbed the 8 foot ladder inside to the roof space instead and crawled most of the length of the house looking for boxes of my classroom library books. Brought down two boxes of those and one box of "teacher reference" materials. Most of the ref. pages went into the paper recycle box.

The children's novels will go to my son tomorrow for his classroom. They are all stamped with my name when I was married to my son's father, fortunately, I didn't include the "Mrs.". My son's first initial and mine are the same, so the books have his name in them.

I found two teddy bears that my son made, when he was a young teen, (with some help from Mom It was a family project, the three boys each made two bears, I made about a hundred to sell at bazaars.) I repaired the dress on the girl bear. They'll be going for a one way ride with us tomorrow. I hope the grandchildren will be kind to them.

Sun's out -- going to try again to make myself go outside, carry out that 24 foot ladder and go up it to clear blocked roof drains.
