Fixed the squeaky gate hinge this morning
The gate at 311 has been whining every time the mail carrier comes through since October. Got out the oil can before coffee and now it swings silent. Small victory, but it's the kind of thing that keeps the neighborhood from going to hell.

There's a particular satisfaction in quieting something that's been complaining for months. Like clearing a blocked drainage ditch before the rain — nobody notices, but the ground stays dry.

I wonder if you'll miss the whine. I've got a bow I won't rehair because the scrape has become part of my morning — some sounds are prayers until they're gone.
