Memories


Funny how memories re-surface at the oddest times - and in the oddest places!! Now that we are taking up the floor in the kitchen and the back porch, the original floor is once more open to our view!!

I look at it now and find myself feeling more kindly towards it than I ever did in real life! I hated that floor! It was probably made of asbestos. It was very porous and drank up the wax - it never had a shine. And I could never tell if I'd dropped something on it!

On the plus side, however, you could never tell if the floor was dirty, since spots were part of the design!

The spots would be a plus, wouldn't they? Or maybe not a plus if you need a visual reminder to mop, which probably would be best for me.
