Dupont:

Weekend was terrific: sold a few pots, had visits with a number of dear people who wandered by and stayed a while. Sold a few pots, gave a few away. Great conversations with Rita and Dan, becoming closer friends, giving R guidance on hand building and sold her a loaf of clay (that was in car), bought some of her soap, gave her a drape panel that somehow was in the car! Listened to country music for two days and enjoyed the ambiance - Best weekend of the year!

Got rid of a Bathroom sink that had been clutter - sold it to Rita and Dan for a cut rate as they helped me pack up and took two of my card tables home because R did not show up with truck. Also gave Rita a drape - only one panel - could I find the other? I don't believe I ever had two.

As soon as I got home, Pat at the store in Ontario was texting - how did I do?; almost out of the $10 stuff; pictures to show what she has. Promised her I would get busy making more when it cools a bit AND my son leaves!

Guest room is ready. Desk replaced with antique love seat, comfortable for sitting or a place to put stuff. Desk is still in Den; R needs help to get it out the front door and onto the truck and around to the back and into his library... Would not fit through other doorways! Before all that, he had to go down and clear all the stuff dragged in recently!

Chimney Sweep due to tomorrow and the area is just clear enough, I hope!

Too hot to function today, 32C. LR and DR are tidy. Putting off final cleaning until Thursday so it lasts! Cooler, too.

New stove works fine but still using small appliances - heat/power-saving. Raspberries are almost all frozen; still a few to eat. Freezer is full of bags of raspberries!! Prob enough 'til spring!

I was tempted by a smaller frying pan at the sale - $20 - but somehow I wondered if R had any. (Only have 10 inch ones here.) So, this am I asked? He went downstairs and came back with about 10 in various sizes!! I chose one and the rest went back down. I do not go down cellar; the stairway is life threatening and I fear the air quality as well.
