Chapter 31

“This is women’s work,” Velma told Kurt when he asked why ‘the men folk’ weren’t consulted.

He shook his head in amusement, telling Guy, “That’s always her reasoning when it comes to decorating. Not that we’ve done much the past few years but when the kids were growing up, she and Alice were the ones who made the final decision a new sofa, or comforters for the beds.”

Prior to starting the painting, Kurt rented a carpet cleaning machine. What Guy had thought was a faded green carpet turned out to be a nice medium green one. “It happened so slowly, I didn’t realize how much dirt and dust has been ground in no matter how often I vacuumed,” Velma said ruefully when she saw the results.
