I can see clearly now. the rain is gone. I can see all obstacles in my way…..
Our windows were finally cleaned on the outside yesterday. The insides were tackled today and in well over a year I have never had a view I have today.
We always have other obstacles but seeing through a clear window toward the view we pay to see is amazing. These guys didn’t bother to call or show up last year. This year I had nine ways to make sure everything went OK and it did.
I believe a year-end farewell is due to our educational schooner. Sailors are still out there but extra mats are coming in, and squirrels are fattening up and gaining food so winter is coming.
I can see clearly now, my windows are clean, I can see all obstacles in my way, Dee
Cooking with Dee 
I left all the shades up last night and this morning the sun came streaming in at six. There was already a light layer of dust on the dining table and kitchen counters and dog hair on the wood floors. I called to my husband, honey, give me my dirty windows back! Just kidding. I just dusted and all was well.
