I have bags of mulch, some emptied out, some waiting for emptying . . . and I making them my minions in the war against weeds. This morning, I dug out one ugly, big-leafed fellow that was the size of a pizza pan from under the blue spruce. It was behind the clubhouse and I [...]

Snout and geraniums
May 16th, 2013 · 2 Comments
Yesterday the temperature got up to 87 when I went out to get plants for my Memorial Day urn assembly; if you remember my whining about mowing on Sunday, then you know that was at least 43 degrees within 72 hours. (And Sunday, the wind made it feel like 37.) I came home with geraniums, [...]

Snout still attached
May 14th, 2013 · No Comments
Quentin had a bone spur removed from his nasal/sinus area today. We have word that he is doing okay – although there is a suspicion his snout will temporarily be enlarged and his eyes those of a raccoon. This should mean no more lingering and deep-seated sinus infections, but right now, I think it means [...]

Warming up
May 13th, 2013 · No Comments
Because circumstances threw me off the LaGrange mowing schedule, the grass was high – and in the north part, it was the first mowing of the year. So . . . I had to do it AND IT WAS CLOUDY, COLD AND WINDY. It felt like 37 and I wore a shirt, a sweatshirt, a [...]

Cool . . . like under 50
May 12th, 2013 · No Comments
It was supposed to be somewhat sunny and about 60 in LaGrange today. Well, it’s not going to be that. I am donning jeans and a long-sleeved shirt and a sweatshirt. Guess I won’t have to worry about sunscreen – I should be concerned with goggles because it is going to be w i n [...]

It has been a long day
May 11th, 2013 · No Comments
Some days are just off-kilter. Today was one of them. But, like other days, it is passing. So, then, we come to tomorrow . . . and it is supposed to be sunny, if a little cool. Cool would be good because circumstances have kept me from mowing – and I mean THE BIG MOWING, [...]

I got my little friend on my key chain as a present; she has served faithfully, but is getting tired. I am letting her retire to a nice keepsake box ( with pasture) – or maybe on the window sill where she can keep up with things. Her moo is getting weak, so I will [...]

Bummed by the yellow guys
May 8th, 2013 · 1 Comment
They came back so quickly!! I mowed on Saturday and yesterday morning I looked at the front yard and the dandelions were all over. Actually, they had a sort of grouping to them: they looked like the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, only yellow. I was tempted to get the mower out right then, but I was [...]

Furniture movers

Summer and I rearranged things in her room today in an attempt to get the most comfort from her air-conditioning vent. It went okay; we moved a desk and her bed. The bed was easy enough and the desk wasn’t difficult, but there was a little surprise when I started to lift my end of [...]

Crate & Barrel Station glasses
May 6th, 2013 · 2 Comments
When I was ordering online, I passed over the Station glasses because I had a feeling they were thin and more likely to break; they are thin and they probably do need more careful handling than the tough Gilbratar glasses. However, standing in the store with the glass in my hand, it felt so nice [...]
