Chris is funny
I am amazed at how much I have suddenly discovered I need to do before Monday.
Scholarship applications, prospectus writing, paper reading, pie-making,
computer-sitting, garage cleaning, room re-organizing . . . it's enough to
make my head spin.
On a lighter note, I have a little story for you. In my kitchen, there is a
weird sort of desk built into the wall below one of the windows. None of my
family likes it, but we haven't yet gotten rid of it. Thus, it remains.
Christopher is painting the windows in the house, and now he's cleaning them
all for the winter. In my family, we use newspaper to clean windows because
it's lint-free and better at scrubbing.
I came down for breakfast this morning and found Chris standing on the desk,
pressed up against the window, reading the Globe and Mail from last week.
When I remarked that it was an odd place to read the paper, his only reply was
"the light's better."
Of course, that story would have been funnier if I hadn't explained it, and if
you knew my brother. Odd fellow.
