Funny how such a simple thing as dusting can sometimes turn your world upside down! Decided today that I needed to clean my husbands den, it’s as exactly as he left it when he died 15 years ago. Now don’t think that it’s been 15 years since I cleaned it, not true, it’s like any other part of the house it gets cleaned when I get around to it. LOL.  Anyway was dusting his Stein Collection, normally I just use a feather duster but today I decided I would move the Steins and wax the book case, now he has this Stein that was given to him by  his Army Unit when he was Leaving Germany after three years of service. Anyways it has his name and dates of service are on it, now I didn’t remember but I do now,  his dog tags are in that Stein so when I picked up the Stein to dust it, the Stein made this tinkling noise and to my surprise his Dog Tag are in the Stein.  Dusting turned a normal cleaning day into a very Special Day because I took a photo of the Stein with the Dog Tags and sent the photo to my Son and it made his day very happy , so remember you never know what life is going to hand you even on a normal cleaning day!

Miss you very much Bill!!
