RTBTCKI The Quickly Moving Clouds Edition
Nov. 2nd, 2013 08:32 amThe clouds are moving rapidly across the sky right now making all kinds of patterns. Caroline is looking at them and giving me running commentary about what the clouds look like. Her cat Fig is looking along next to her. Really kinda cute.
The clouds are also breaking up enough to allow some sunlight to stream into the house so I can turn off the overhead light.
HOUSEKEEPING NOTE: Tonight in most parts of the US we go back to standard time which personally I think we should have never left so tonight before you go to bed, remember to set your clock back one hour. So as of tomorrow the light I am seeing now will be there about the time that Caroline gets up for school. It does mean that it will be getting much darker faster around here in the afternoon.
It is kind of funny that my parents and I live in the same time zone but I am about as far east as you can get and still be in the zone and they are pretty much all the way to the west which means that our light and dark are at different times on the same day.
1,2,3,4 I declare a thumb war (just something that has been stuck in my head for the past couple of days). That and the cell block tango from Chicago but I can trace that to the Disney/Chicago mash-up of the Cell Block Tango that has been making the rounds on the Internet
Sometimes I think we have too much information and entertainment to choose from. We are so connected that at times we seem to be disconnected from reality. I feel a little overwhelmed at times.
I think today the graveyard goes back into the garage. I do plan to keep the lights up for a while. I finally figured out a safe way to attach the lights to the railings on our porch, I have been using the chenille steams (pipe-cleaners) to attach them. Heck of a lot easier than tape especially when taking things down. Ditto with strips of cloth and zip ties. Pumpkins need to retire to the compost heap. I think they have served their purpose well. This will probably take less than an hour to do.
Then I need to clean up from Caroline’s Halloween Costume project and do some small sewing that has been building up on my sewing table for simple repair.
I am getting some urging to pull out my clay and play for a bit.
But first I promised my family pancakes so that is next on my list.
I am grateful for getting things done in a timely fashion.
