Done With Leaves

I finished hacking through the giant pile of leaves and pine needles yesterday. The leaf mold at the bottom is great for the gardens or maybe even a new woodland garden. Ron kindly brought the bags to the transfer station.

Ron also replaced the vanes that Teddy had chewed. That involved repairing one of the vane holders.

The day before, we’d composted a bunch of gone-bys. At Ron suggestion, I planted a sprouted red onion in the garlic patch before composting the rotten outside.

I made oatmeal and sautéed two bunches of chard with garlic. Ron cleaned up the kitchen before going to bed.

I did a late shop around 8. The store was quiet, and I lucked out, got a register pretty much right away.

We didn’t finish the laundry and get the bed changed until close to 9 PM.

This morning, I dug up a couple of offshoots of the beach rose and some weedy plants and finished pruning the garden in front of the fence. Two acetaminophen and I still hurt. For the first time, the thought of condo living crossed my mind, briefly.
