Well, the house is officially painted and the spare bedroom has had all furniture removed, wiped down walls and doors and mop boards and used a little Liquid Gold. I rearranged all of the furniture and cleaned drawers in the desk and dresser. (well there is still a small box hidden in the closet that I will do today)

Joyce called in the afternoon and I invited them for dinner last night. We had a couple of drinks and grilled brats. Also had sweet corn for one of the last times this season. We had such a nice visit and Joyce and Dick stayed until about 9:30PM. We should really do that more often. It is such fun to reminisce with friends of over 30 years.

Today I will finish that box that I hid in the closet before Joyce and Dick came and plan for a big day tomorrow with Fran and Jim in Winterset. I did not know it until last night that Winterset is the home of Fons and Potter. Famous for quilting supplies. I think we must visit.

God is so good and we are so blessed.
