Cooler and overcast. Maybe some rain. Plenty of humidity I’m certain.
Did lots of little things around the house yesterday. Actually cleaned up some things and put some stuff on shelves. Doesn’t feel like much and it wasn’t.
I cut the grass in the backyard. Mower battery died after about 5 minutes. Put it on the charger while I used the string trimmer, and even though it wasn’t fully charged it was good for the remainder of the yard. Put it back on the charger when I finished. Did some string trimming around the blueberry bushes. I don’t let the lawn guys do that. They used to just whack off the bushes too. Cleaned the filter in the pond. Water was still clear but flow to the aerator/waterfall was slow. There was about a 1/4 inch of fine black silt on the top of the filter. Flows good now…
Many ripe lemons, but the oranges and grapefruits are still a bit green. I don’t want to wait too long, but I want tree ripened fruit! I cleaned up the failed planting beds, and I’ll try some other seed packets tomorrow.
Plugged in lights for a couple more fake jack o lanterns in the yard.
And that was about that. My wife spent the afternoon with her Brownie troop. They did a couple of craft projects including making “sit upons” and decorating them. Before heading out, my 9yo discovered the vinyl cutter. Oh MY. She’s turning out 3 and 4 color stacked stickers. She’s using my wife’s Cricut cutter so she’s not drawing the shapes but she’s doing all the rest. She’s doing a great job of making good looking vinyl too. I might have to get her dialed in on Inkscape and my big cutter….
Today should be more of the same. More cleanup, more auction, more wasting time on the internet with my friends…
And somehow, I’ll find time for more stacking.
