Drying Her Wings

Freshly emerged
from this tiny chrysalis,
she patiently waited as her wings air-dried for flight.

Thursday's Things In A Row

Steps at the lake,
steps to the door,
teeth on a rake,
spindles on an old screen door.
Hay in the field is a joy.
You'll have ants in your pants,
if you ride this toy.

Visit Pat for more Thursday's Things In A Row.

The Last Cloud...

that promised rain,
rumbled and grumbled
thundering across the sky.
Bringing hope and possibility,
clinging to the greyness
The winds tossed the promises away
and left us disappointed,
dry and even hotter.

One Of My Weekend Projects...

was finding my tools and reorganizing the tool closet.  I have every thing labeled and so easy to find...wait, that should be HAD every thing organized.  I could reach in the dark and find the tool I needed.  No more! 

I have a tool thief...been living with me a long time. Many years ago when asked what I wanted for Mother's Day, I replied, a tool box with a lock.  This has been such an ongoing problem, my daughter bought me pink tools thinking it would shame Hubby into not using my tools.  Nope, he can see them better.

Through the years, my tool collection has grown.  I have battery tools, a dremil, a jig saw, and some other saws and boy, do I love them....and it really tees me off when they are not where they are supposed to be.  Hubby uses them so much, he claims them as his!

So Sunday, I gathered and sorted and redid my closet...one more time.  Know where I found my pink straight edge screw driver...that's right, on hubby's table.
