The Rank of Things



Although we rarely verbalize it, things in our lives have definite ranks. Things like your job, health and family are right at the top while things like your job and your pair of Girbauds from 1988 rank somewhere near the bottom.

Did I mention the job at the top and the bottom? It's a complicated list.

This complexity can change the importance of things in a split second, making a lost $5 earring seem more important than your most expensive jewelry. Or a simple measuring tape more precious than your whole tool bench when your trying to buy a piece of furniture.

The unpredictable nature of rank is trumped by a few constants. One of those constants is your home.

As always, this leads me to M&M Carpet Installation of North Haven. They do quality, conscientious work for a reasonable price in most of Connecticut.

Oh, and for the husbands out there, shoes and closet space rank frighteningly high on your wife's list. Trust me.
