How’s this one: “I felt so guilty about leaving you that I took up with someone else.”
Yes, that one really parses. And love is a thing that can never go wrong, and I am Marie of Roumania.

Woke up to rain – good news, since I didn’t water the bulbs planted yesterday. Bad news, since I didn’t mow at Edgewater yesterday.
Busy one today: dropping John off for chemo, appointment with Amy, stopping off at Highfield to help with a mailing, job interview, going to UMass Law School at 4.

Second frost last night and I finally pulled out the tomato plants and some of the annuals from the vegetable garden. Planted some bulbs; late, but maybe some will “take”.
Lost two favorite gardening tools.
Not a good day.

Getting jittery about my trip to California in THREE WEEKS.

The flights and the cottage reservations have been booked and paid for.
Since my flight out is at 6:30 am, just reserved a room at a hotel near the airport for the night prior that offers up to two weeks free parking and a complimentary shuttle.

Candy and I did some clothes shopping yesterday, and I think I’m pretty well set there. Got my ears re-pierced.

Ron called to see if I was interested in having Thanksgiving dinner with friends of his, which is great – I get to meet some of the people he cares about, and no cooking, maybe just some clean up, which is easy.

I am off on a couple of secret errands today, which is probably why I’m so nervous right now. I’m way out of practice with “girl” stuff.

I’m worried about Mr. Fluffles. I’ll be gone for 9 days.

Mowed the back and the sides today at Dixon. Leaves are starting to fall. Did some more scraping at Edgewater.
Added some cute decorations to the gardens, 90% off at Christmas Tree Shop.
Dropped in to see Laurie and all the kids at their annual Halloween party.

Hey! You should look so good at 64!

Not much doing this week other than a good rainstorm yesterday and some cleanup after the window installers. Still getting tomatoes.
Have been doing bicycle crunches and already notice a big improvement in how my back feels when I get up in the morning.
Working on scraping paint at 11.

We’re having a spectacular foliage season in Mashpee. These pix are from just one venue, the Quashnet golf course.
