Again Vit Da Veird Veather

Yesterday was cloudless and clear. Today’s weather says “rain is expected to continue for the next several days”. It hasn’t been raining. The weather office is practically next door to my building and it hasn’t been raining there either. All we have is this:

and i don’t think it’s going to get us. So, should I take off work and do yardwork before it starts allegedly raining? Or trust that the weather peeps are nutzo and that it will continue to not rain as long as they say it’s still raining?

Also, I still must assume I am still in control. If the weather says rain, and I take precautions, it will not rain. If I rode my scooter to work instead of driving the van, it would rain. Today I’m driving instead of riding, and I hope for a nice sunny snorkel at lunchtime. If it rains, good, the plants need it. I haven’t been watering because of all the promised rain. (If I did water the plants, as you know, it would almost immediately start raining.)

Have a wonderful day. If you want it wet, may it be wet, if you want it dry, may it be dry.

Suddenly Seemingly Overwhelmed

Seems like suddenly, things around the house are out of control. The yard is a disaster because I didn’t mow. (weed killer experiment). The inside needs cleaning really bad. The floor especially. And I have repairs to do and a tree to put in the ground and I need to make a list.

Maybe I should take a couple vacation days and do some work around the house.

We’re almost half way through the week. Looking forward to the weekend already. There’s not much to report on around here.

have a good day!

Weed Killer Ineffective

i put down some weed killer on a 10 x 100 test area of my yard. Precisely measured according to the manufacturers instructions, I see no effect. It’s supposed to kill broadleaf weeds and not any grass that may be there. Maybe it needs a little more time.

Im also looking for a more effective bathroom cleaner. Soft Scrub doesn’t seem to keep it clean for long, and doesn’t stick to vertical surfaces.

Any homemaker helpers out there, I appreciate your input.

Have a wonderful day!

Nice Weekend Ended

Monday is here at last! It was a good weekend. Saturday was the 1 Mile Sea Swim, I came in 308 out of 550.

Sunday i took he dogs to the beach, then gave baths and then made the third anti chicken lid for the third planter. I still have to put the screen on it. Also, I have to finish refurbishing the original planter #1.

Maybe we’ll get some weather coming, maybe just rain, but I won’t get a ride-the-scooter week like I wanted.

But, all is well and I hope you have a wonderful week.

Remembered To Post

Many people.say they forgot something when they really remembered it. For example, I am already at work when I remembered to post this morning. If I came here Monday and and realized I didn’t post today, then I would have forgotten.

But anyway, HAPPY FRIDAY! Don’t forget to have a great weekend!

Duck Sauce Murder

This 51 year old in New York ordered Chinese Delivery, and killed the driver because he didn’t bring enough Duck Sauce. When the police were searching the man’s apartment, they found the refrigerator crammed full of the little duck sauce packets, as well as other condiments.

There’s an insanity plea for you… What a horrible reason to die.

damn…

Road Repair (I hope!)

Last night coming home from work, the crooked pothole road around the corner was all graded and looks like time for a re-pave instead of a patch job. Yeay! That will be nice. The equipment is parked in a vacant lot nearby.

an asphalt comb

Had a god lunchtime snorkel yesterday . Not much in the way of pictures tho. Same Flamingo Tongues, but a nice puffer!

Have n enjoyable Wednesday!

Beets and Lettuce (And Peppers)

new anti cat/chicken lid

Back to work today. I’m glad to be back on my routine.

This long weekend I built another anti cat, anti chicken lid for one of the planters. When I get done, all three will have them. The original, which is probably over 10 years old, is being refurbished, planter and lid.

I transplanted my beet and lettuce sprouts in the grower yesterday. I hope they survive. I’ve got peppers on the back porch. I put them in my pasta sauce and my salads . I’m going to have to start giving them away..The lettuce I can really use, lettuce is expensive here!

I have a house and yard full of plants. More coming!

Have a good rest-of-the week!

Queens Jubilee Monday

Today is our last day off for the Queens Jubilee. Looking forward to her 80th

It doesn’t seem like it was a long 4 day weekend.

It’s not cloudy now, and the wind isn’t howling , but it was all weekend. My friends who tried to go diving couldn’t, seas were too rough.

I did some yard work, I am making anti chicken covers for the planters out front . Just a screen lid really. Pictures of them coming later. Below is a picture of the plants in my house that I took this morning. There’s more in the picture than it looks like, and there’s more not in the picture. Lots more. I keep splitting them up so I can sell them, but I never see them

I hope you will have a very nice week.
