Sometimes it is something as simple as covering the top of your cup with a CD case while in the garage so that dust and insect friends don't descend into the liquid level inside; the things that friends teach me. Yes, I can see the bugs flying. Yes, I know there is dirt around. Somehow, I just didn't naturally think to cover the cup. These are the moments of "dumb genius" that are of note for my life. I don't think the others around me "get that" most of the time.
I'm so lucky when they do.
