Both of the governor candidates here want to allow expansion of sports gambling to mobile devices, for the tax revenue. The city government has put a pause on the sale of marijuana-derived products, probably so they can figure out how to tax it.
I've continued to make small improvements around the house. For two shelves in shallow cupboards, I put a board across the front of the shelf to turn it into a built-in bin. The board just rests against the inside of the cupboard's face frame. The shelves hold small towels and washcloths, which I don't take the time to fold and stack neatly.
I sewed up ripped leather on a child's shoe with dental floss. Needed my leather thimble to push the big needle through the leather. I also finally got around to mending a few items of clothing. Still have some slippers and braided rugs and I don't know what else to repair. Neighbors handed a very nice large rug down to us; it is in good condition except for wear at the edges, which I think I can deal with with some turkey stitch (tufted) embroidery.
I gave up on my bedroom closet office plans, and started using the space for craft supply storage. I finally found my misplaced bedsheet, which I had cleverly stored among some spare pillowcases.
The weather has been very dry, but I saw that rain was finally coming, and got most of the rest of the leaves raked up before it hit.
The children have been doing good work. It's been fun to see the older ones teaching the younger ones.
