Can't Take Credit For This One

Was talking to a friend yesterday, mentioned that I'm not too fond of dust, it's my enemy.  Friend remarked that he's wondered about dust as well.  Said that we're told everything has a purpose.  Can't figure out the purpose of dust.  Never thought about it in quite that way.  But I agree with him - what on earth could be the purpose of dust?

Waiting for our power to be restored caused me to feel gratitude for the things that I use consistently that require that electricity.  Among them my curling iron.  Was concerned the power wouldn't come back on in time for me to curl my hair in the morning.  Obviously, if I'm posting here, the power is back on.  I can go out in public with my hair curled.  Whew!  That was a close one.
