Patience has never been my long suit. How do I pass the time until the house closing? Reading, blogging, a little social media. Lots brewing today on the crisis of having this horror in the White House. Hoping Nancy goes full out impeachment later today.

In the meantime, I did the time honored activities of women everywhere: Cleaning and cooking. I attempted to clean the cowhide suede on our living room wing chairs, mixed results, alas. Next I need to work in some colored wax into the wooden portions. The poor chairs have been gnawed on by more than one puppy in their lifetimes. Maybe that’s tomorrow’s task.

I’m cooking this afternoon. A huge pot of tomato sauce is simmering away on the Viking. Then back to my book.
