Why Red Thread?

Okay. I'm done with this banner now.

I love the color. It's pulled the room together. And, it's meaningful. Notice the meaning?

"His banner over me is love".

I thought we could (he we, not me we) easily move a long white peg shelf from one side of the room to over the bed, but it is about a foot too long.

A foot? One would think I could 'eye-ball' something to within a foot, but I cannot.

I'm curious to know if I am the only one who notices tiny weird things but cannot estimate to within a foot.

Today I sat in an office and noticed how tastefully decorated everything was. Creative, classy and comfortable.

But what is it that I remember most?

I remember that the impeccably dressed doctor had four buttons on the sleeve of his sport coat. Three were sown on with matching brown thread and one was sown on with bright red thread.

Is that the signature of any particular designer?

If I had my druthers (what ARE druthers?) I would rather be able to eye-ball the length of a shelf than to wonder if the reason the one button was sown with red thread had anything to do with the lack of a wedding ring on the doctor's finger.
