canyonwalkerIt's something little that feels big. Or is it something big that feels little? Hawk and I are seeing a couple of friends today... in our house!
The four of us haven't totally been strangers over the past year. We've met several times for hiking and picnics— oh, and one wedding— but always outdoors and with masks and 6' distancing as much as possible. But now that we've finished our Coronavirus vaccinations, and at least two weeks have passed for maximum effectiveness, it's safe for us to gather indoors & unmasked again.
Having friends over to the house means... housecleaning! With nobody but ourselves entering our house for the past 13½ months we've let a lot of tidying slide. Oh, the house is hardly a pigsty. We don't want to live like that. But there's a lot of clutter, and a few cleaning tasks have been neglected because they just haven't been that important to us. The foyer and the lower stairs, for example. I vacuumed and mopped them yesterday. I don't think I've done that for 13½ months!
