As the whole of the main floor is tile...
it takes but a few minutes to use the extra wide dust mop on the entire 2nd floor.
I then just form a pile and sweep it up with the broom and debris container combo.
I had initially swept off the water proof entrance rug.
This is where I take off my snow boots...
and there are often small pieces of crushed granite and snow
which deposit themselves onto this special carpet.
Its whole backing is of rubber...
and so...
every so often...
I need just do a quick sweep.
Anyway...
as I always clean up after myself in everything...
there is no need for me to do any rush or deep cleaning...
not anywhere in my home.
I talked with my younger sister last night.
I had been trying to get her to come out and stay with me...
for at least a few weeks.
We looked at the weather window...
and as it is supposed to be relatively clear...
my sister agreed to drive out early tomorrow morning (0200 hrs).
She should arrive tomorrow late evening.
She will stay for about one month.
She is thinking of looking at properties in my area...
and if not in the immediate vicinity...
then somewhere relatively close.
My sisters and I love many of the same things...
that of privacy...
the serenity of being surrounded by nature...
or by having it nearby.
My younger sister was looking at some pieces of property
with some acreage and views.
I will be driving her all around to view...
not only specific pieces of property...
but of general areas.
I wanted her to get an idea of the mountains in winter.
They are actually much milder than most winters
in other colder areas.
I will also be able to show her around more than when she was last here.
I will take her to my favorite restaurants...
and we will explore some others as well.
------------
As a result of my younger sister's visit...
I, of course...
will put off my little projects.
There is no rush for anything that I do around the house...
and it will be fun.
I have all winter to chop down trees...
but even should I miss all of winter...
I can always start next year.
However...
I will have plenty of time after my younger sister's visit.
But...
this will also present an opportunity to take pictures
of surrounding areas as I take my sister around.
And so...
I will share many photos of the surrounding areas as I show my sister around.
Nice for your sister to spend a good amount of time there. She will be able to get to know the area and find out for herself where she might want to live. Enjoy the time together!
ReplyDeleteMy elder sister is contemplating a move here some time in the future as well. She had actually lived in Colorado Springs for one year decades ago.
ReplyDeleteIt is so magical here. I just came back in from taking the dogs out to use the bathroom. The early morning sun had shone through the ice crystals on the tree limbs of the Aspens. I just love it so much here. And to be able to have our family in near proximity once again would be the frosting on the cake.
