Mundane, but matters!

Nothing new yesterday or today — sorry!

I promise I’ll write tonight and tomorrow, though.  Possibly three blog-posts!  Who knows?!

What’s new?

House Party at my place today!  That’s what!

This means only one thing!  An excuse to clean, clear, wipe and dust much of the house, most of the day before yesterday, yesterday and today.

In my home, we need an excuse, or else everything goes straight to hell.  This week, there was an explosion of books, toys, student papers on desk, correspondence, clothes, hair-ties, ribbons, projects, sheets with designs, numbers, drawings, dust bunnies in unsuspected corners.  My excuse?  I was enjoying my Feb. break.  Now, there’s no excuse.  A party!  That is what makes all of us scurry around, cleaning, clearing the debris of a busy, but happy life.

How mundane!  I like it.  My head is filled with mystery and strangeness.  The mundane is a welcome change.
