Today’s sunrise.
And a lilac blossom from our huge lilac bush. I walked past and did a double take. Lilacs bloom in May not September. Another one of those small, almost unnoticed blessings from our Lord.
And since winter is edging toward us, I thought it would be a good time to fix our side door and primary entrance to our house. When we bought this place, the door had seen better days. The house was a rental for the last several years and lived in by, I can only assume, feral people. They had several cats and not much interest in changing the litter box. My dog wrinkled his nose when entering the house for the first time.
I bought the same style door at our local big box outlet, but it was already November and too cold to replace the door frame with the new door. I slapped the new door into the old frame, with some difficulty but no blood and it has been that way until today. The Brother in Law came over and started on the project yesterday afternoon. We came to the conclusion at sundown that we needed to sleep on it and try again in the morning. Door frames can be that way most times, I have found.
