Seems like Sunday

I don’t know why, but today does not seem like Monday to me. Perhaps because a good part of yesterday afternoon was devoted to walking very slowly through Home Depot looking at stuff we will need to do some spiffing up around here. While I looked I was also organizing in my mind how I wanted to describe problem areas and what preferences I had to ‘people who can handle a saw and glue without winding up with leg glued to head and only a few fingers to try and pry it off’. Important point, that.

My afternoon purchases were a clamp-on metal light, which will highlight the dirty areas for cleaning before fixing, and light bulbs. (Yea to AmeliaJake for actually putting that 2 +2 together)

On the way out, I saw a big bag of grass seed from Scott’s that normally sold for 44 dollars, but was on sale for $10. I will try to follow the instructions, but darn it, just the act of putting that much grass seed on my poor yard is worth the $10 in emotional boost.

By the way, if ramble I must, let me ramble this: In some areas people are actually spraying a paint solution on their lawns. I am assuming they are spraying something green. It could give a whole new meaning to grass stains. And to criminal investigations: Look at this jury folks – green paint was found in the crevices of this sneaker and our expert testified it was consistent that used by  THE GREEN UP YOUR LAWN COMPANY employed by the victim.

Now I am thinking about sneakers; were they named because you could sneak in them? And what was the motive of the developer? Did they advertise in Cat Burglar magazines?

I have a cat that I wouldn’t mind being burgled, but it is Mother’s cat and so I can’t put out a contract. Everyone else here thinks Tiffy is so cute  . . .  I am not a cat person. So Tiffy and I tolerate each other. Did I ever mention members of this family think nothing – NOTHING – of using Pfalzgraff bowls for milk?

Soon I am going to use one vacuum to suck the filter on another one clean er than it is now. Ah, yes, it is going to be that type of day. With luck, no glue will be involved.
