My contribution for this week’s challenge…
Fray
~~~~~
As soon as I brushed the cobwebs out of my eyes this morning
I knew the direction of this post.
Yesterday Ginger’s new bedding arrived and
was inserted into her kennel.
During the clean out, this piece of smelly frayed carpet,
which I have looked for on many occasion, was discovered.
~~~~~
It wasn’t because I was in the dog house, that I searched for it,
we were seeking padding for furniture when kids moved out.
~~~~~
But I can assure you it smelled a lot better being extracted
from Ginger’s kennel than it did being extracted
from the rubbish bin this morning.
The second object for this challenge I am wearing right now.
My favourite green windcheater/sweat shirt.
We moved from the farm nine years ago and
my two green windcheaters
are constant, comfortable reminders of the ‘good old days’.
However, a few months ago I was feeling the cold and
held my constant companion up to the light
and I could see right through it.
(Focus on everything but the tear in the seam.)
About then I decided not to throw it out,
but to wear another one underneath…for warmth.
Summer is just around the corner 🙂

Fantastic! At least you have a dog to help you with this challenge. I’m kinda stumped actually!

She is a very obliging pooch when she wants to be. When she digs in the garden … well that’s another story. 🙂

My brother would have said of your windcheater “You can’t even call that threadbare, because it has no threads.”

Has years of life in it yet…much to MGW’s disgust 😀
