we have had four or five or six windy weekends in a row. Bad enough to prevent diving and hurt my plants.
it’s getting later noticeably earlier, hello is a picture of the same old scene from our morning dog walk.
i got a lot of work done in the yard. I have the conduit ready to run my new internet cable.
It was, overall, a good weekend. There will be a short week this week and next because of Easter.
Have a good week!
Happy Friday!
Above is a few photos from the week. Clockwise, cruise ships from roadside at the north end of Seven Mile Beach, taken a few days ago. Paypaya plants coming up after I had given up on them. My dusty head after drilling a 1 inch hole thru 8 inches of concrete. And the road from my walk this morning. I like taking a picture on this road . You’ll find other seemingly indentical shots scattered through these posts.
last night for supper, I ate an entire Domino’s small thin crust pizza in about 10 minutes. It was the first time I ordered a pizza in more than a year. I can’t believe I ate the whole thing. But I felt fine last night and this morning.
I was sleeping really well when the alarm went off this morning, my first thought was that there were two alarms. But I’m awake now, drinking coffee. At least I think I’m awake, how would I really know?
have a great weekend!
tends to stay at rest.
it’s a Sunday night after a wasted day. Well, not totally wasted. I mowed the yard and did laundry, but I planned on going out and delayed and delayed and then didn’t go.
I wanted to go diving, none of my friends were going, but I was going to go to the dive site and just tag along with somebody. But I didn’t, I mowed the yard.
then I was going to go to the Westin for lunch, but I didn’t, I did laundry.
now I feel depressed, like I wasted the day. I know I didn’t waste the day, but I feel like I did.
yesterday, saturday, was a fabulous day. I went to a meeting then breakfast then Sabbath Services, then shopping for plant supplies then to the beach.
this is my Monday morning post on a Sunday night. Have a good week!
Yesterday i got my tires changed on my scooter. Those little tires cost almost twice what my tires on my van costed! And I finally got a new battery. It costed a lot too, but supposedly is a really good battery and will be the last I ever need. Wee shall see! It was shockingly expensive. But I’m glad to have it behind me.
And it’s Friday!
In other news, my Monstera plant is making a flower, it’s going to be real purdy. More to come.
Have a great weekend!
This plant has been growing for quite a while. I thought it might be a weed but never plucked it. Glad I didn’t! I took this yesterday while I was checking on my pepper plant. Pretty Yellow flowers.
My internet is down hard. Massive problems with the underground conduits from the road to the house. Full of mud. The wires have been pulled and cannot be replaced until the conduit is cleared.
oh well. Have a good day.
Last week I bought a new garden hose and sprayer. Look at that beauty! What color is that? Turquoise? And the new spray nozzle! Deee-vine!
I am probably much too thrilled about a simple hose and sprayer, but I think they’re both great!
Like i said yesterday, there was no diving for me last weekend,but I did do a lot of yardwork and gardening. I split up several plants to make babies and fertilized an made little anti chicken fences around a few of the bigger plants. I’m using a product called Black Kow, it’s cow poop but doesn’t stink.
I hope to get some fruit off the fruit trees that thus far have bore nothing.
I hope you have a happy Tuesday !
Just a few pictures from yesterday. Sunset last night, (sorry ’bout the power lines). And my new thing that burns smelly essential oils. And flowers from yesterday’s watering of the yard.
Have a wonderful day!
We knew it would happen when we started reopening our borders. Yesterday, for the 1st time in more than than a year, we found 2 cases of locally transmitted covid. Yesterday at the grocery store, I noticed probably 1 in 5 people wearing masks.
Several months ago I ate a star fruit. I saved the seeds and try to germinate them. I use the wet paper towel in the dark method. Of the 3 I tried only one sprouted. I put it in a pot and nothing happened for a long time but today I noticed it had come up. I hope she makes it!
it’s Friday! And looks like another yard work weekend.
havva goodun!
During those storm my generator wouldn’t start. I found the air filter had turned into moosh and .the carburetor was very dirty (clogged). I rebuilt and cleaned the carb and replaced the filter and got it running. But it runs rough. The jets in the carb have two parts, I could only get one out. Maybe I can get it out today.
Also, more yard cleanup yesterday (and today). And yesterday I went out looking for a replacement closet door. Didn’t find one, but stopped by the nursery and beach for a minute.
Tomorrow it’s back to work, I’m looking forward to it, strangely enough.
Have a good Tuesday!
The yard cleanup is progressing, closer to done, clean up some cactus palm fronds and little sticks.
I’m trying to save the plants below. They came off their tree. There’s two buckets, one plant seems to be doing well, the other, not so well.
The branch below was huge, a third of the tree. The limbs covered a large area of the yard.
I’m trying to save the Jamaica Apple Tree, I made a tripod and stood it back up.
I really need to rebuild the carb on my generator, which wouldn’t start when I needed it.
It’s a nice day, but hazy from some Sahara dust blowing over.
Have a great week!
