The Relief of Sorting
![]() |
At Sorting Level 2 |
Sorting for me this spring has been an experience of discovery. The more I go through stuff, the more stuff I have to go through. In the past, clearing up, organizing didn't feel like it does this year.
Summer Set Up
- No liquids, hand sanitizer, anti-bacteroal wipes, creams or lotions left in hot car other than plain water
- No snacking while driving
- No eating chocolate in the car because bits that fall in my lap will melt creating a crapped pants look that's not attractive
- Sunscreen for face, body and sport uses
- Mosquito Nets, hat and single net
- Vehicle warm weather safety pack stored safely in trunk
- Driving safety pack: cooler with freezer pack, water, extra sandals, extra sun glasses, windbreaker, umbrella, long thin raincoat, plastic poncho, crackers or health bar in purse
- Keep old winshield wipers in trunk for just in case
- Make sure spare tire in good condition
- Sunshield umbrella in trunk
- Folding chair in trunk
- Small sketch book in car
- Repellent spray feet before leaving home to prevent bites from mosquities attracted to foot scent
- New nail polish for toes
- Committ in Prayer to be a courteous safe driver, no finger declarations, no fumming over bad drivers, windows up at all times when critiquing aloud driver talent on the road
- Be considerate of lip readers
Windy Views Along Lake Champlain
I am not getting out of my vehicle.
Biting cold windy
The light green water is sunshine.
The darkers waters are cloud shadows.
Lots of rolling white caps.
As I type, a man and 3 old retrievers are walking along the lawn's lake line.
One old dog trails the rest. The black one stops to turn to check on him.
I hope someday when I am slow older, somebody takes me for a walk,
And turns to check on me.

Fish Sheds and Schooner 63.5 x 76.2 cm Oil on canvas, 1898 William Merritt Chase 1890 ~ 1916 |
William Merritt Chase, American Impressionist painter, is a favorite of mine for his landscapes of the Shinnecock Hills of Long Island, New York. Those land and seascapes remind me of Cape Cod, Massachusetts.

Valance, Wires & Creativity |
A favorite environment embellishment, above the old craft desk, wires and other things were handy. Unlike paper, wires are easy to find. And so is the hanging planter spinner (center photo) I've been looking for!

May Everyone who lives the love and compassion of mothethood,
Whether by birth from body or heart,
Celebrate Your Kindness to Others
