Around the House

 



  I finally got to one of those jobs, about 15 years after I first considered it.  The top step was about 6'' and the bottom one was over 12".  They're closer to the same and much less surprising to people going up or down for the first time.  The bonus is a better tool arrangement under the steps, and a storm shelter for climate change.

  Gail didn't wait 15 years to knit our New Orleans transplant a comfy sweater.  Nina has not indicated that it itches in the least.  She also hasn't indicated she's cold.

  Soon after the completion of the sweater, Gail put a hold on her knitting, cooking, swimming and dog walking.  A simple trip over a stick dislocated a finger, injured a shoulder and worst of all, chipped a bone in her elbow.  She had outpatient surgery for the elbow, the finger is taped up for a month or so, and I'm rediscovering my cooking skill.  But in all honesty, they don't match Gail's when she's got one hand taped up and the other arm in a sling.
