Dorothy, we cross posted. It's nice you have shops that you can send your pottery to. Good luck keeping the frost off of the tender garden. I'm setting up sprinklers here as it starts to heat up.

Once the bookcase top in the bedroom was bare I realized I could reclaim my dresser by relocating the TV to that spot. My exercise stuff is also there, all in front of the carpet where I use my yoga mat. Disturbing dust was part of this operation.

The messiest job today was the continuation of dog bed cleaning. When the second fluffy bed went in the washer I added the case from a flat egg crate dog mat (it's "orthopedic" for the old Lab.) Once the case was clean it was clear a lot of dirt had migrated into the foam so that needed a wash also. With dog shampoo in the tub I did a lot of gentle swishing and wringing then draped it over a couple of plastic trash bins in the bathtub so air can reach it to dry overnight. The amount of dog hair around the house right now is astonishing. My next project is to gag my vacuum with as much as I can round up. I've started brushing the dogs and though you'd think that would reduce the amount of shedding, I think it makes it worse.
