Cleaning,
Not new , not unusual, but every speck of dirt is new every time.
Where does dirt come from? Dust travels far, and they found dust specks from the Sahara desert in the Eastern states of the USA.That makes me wonder, where does our dust come from?
Just from the outside, far to trivial for me!
 The northern most sand dunes of the world are in northern Saskatchewan.May be from there?
But our wind patterns are not usually from east to west.
My theory , of course completely unfounded by research,  is, we have glacial silt in our house, which travels from far up north. Imagine the melting glaciers, the uncovering of very old sediments which had previously been encased in the ice.
So while cleaning, I am uncovering historic particles.Wow, very careful now, I remove them from our house and bring them outside , to be send away on their journey around the world.
A trivial task being made special!
I love it!
