Since around 2 this afternoon, it’s looked like it was really trying to rain. So far, though, all we have is heavy fog, rather nice in fact.
James, Eric and Ethan were here for the weekend. No one was hurt (thank goodness) and casualties to the house – a knocked out window, a rip in the trash can cover, the thermostat mysteriously turned up to (choke, gasp, humid enough for ya) 74 degrees – were easily corrected.
Brought Emme to the nail salon and we picked up a Father’s Day card and gift for Peter on the way back. She is thrilled to be out of school and sympathized with my running around: said that I might be done with errands, but not with chores.
I’m thrilled that the big ornamental grasses that were skinny little guys last year are now strong enough to no longer require stakes.
I finally finished digging up the grass and spreading mulch on the far left side of the border garden. It now looks empty. I did a lot of watering this morning and cut down the mystery tree by the fence. Will dig up the roots in the fall.
I’m amazed at how well the Miss Kims are doing; even the brand new one is putting out new foliage.
I labored from April till November 2009 for June 2010.
