Weekend splash

From the weekend
Dear Friends,

Sunday night:

The only thing to say today is I love Ace Hardware of I Street

They help in a personal way that Home Depot just cannot match.

Yesterday Rosa got a notice flashing on her dashboard "Key battery low. Replace soon."

I have no idea what that means — and I don’t really want to know. I checked YouTube and it got even more complicated to my brain. So today I went to Ace, where the man at the key station looked up that very YouTube, and in a minute he had my key renewed. For $6.95. This is one of the things Clark used to figure out easily, and I don’t want to. So I will keep going back to Ace. Their personal service seems an anomaly now, with everything so mechanized. But I’m not the only happy customer — there was a long line at the register when I went in. I am so lucky to have the store nearby!

I know this sounds like an ad.  It isn’t.

Monday night:

When I write Family, my thinking is extending, stretching. Today was a lazy afternoon with family at Judy’s -- her family, and Keith’s, all of us connected somehow. Almost everyone (not me, not Marissa … ) eventually ended up in the beautiful pool. Now I am tired, feeling like I too swam for hours. But all I did was watch the splashing.

I hope you also had a lovely holiday.

Love,

k
