Today as I was getting cleaned up and dressed in my bathroom closet area, I dried my hands on the dark grey towel hanging next to my sink. It occurred to me how old that towel is, having been purchased in the mid 1980's when my nephew Jamie was a baby! The color of the bathroom fixtures for that home were Kohler Warm Rose and Thunder Grey, and this hand towel remains from that period. The passing of time!
How weird that is to remember for which home a certain towel set was purchased! Having lived in many homes over the years, some things from each place do stand out. I have a couple striped hand towels remaining from the bathroom on the lower level in our lake house. The stripes coordinated with the striped bedskirt and valances, and yes, bedroom wall, in my adjoining bedroom.
This late morning, Justin got out some more bins from the "Timmy" closet for me to go through. In one of them I found part of a set that hung in the kids Jack 'n Jack bathroom at The Preserve house, with a fish motif. It is presently in the washer with some other clothing items and a few stuffed animals. I was told the police dept. will accept the stuffed animals for taking with them on domestic calls when little ones are involved and need some extra comfort. Glad to share these from my kids with those who need some extra love. But the towel set stays, how else would I tell time?
By the way, set your clocks ahead one hour when you go to bed on Saturday night!
