Mulch has gone sky-high, overnight, and I was stupid enough to buy some that I didn’t even like for the new lilac. Damn.
Maybe it’s because I was tired from pruning and stressed from trying to pay our gas bill online. Their website is having problems. Their tech support guy was helpful, suggested (heaven help us) Firefox. I finally logged on and paid in full with Microsoft Edge.
I pruned the six hydrangeas in the back, the larger of the two butterfly bushes and the three little St. Johnsworts.
Also washed and dried Teddy’ comforter. Ron and I managed to drape it on the outside clothes dryer. It got some tree effluent which brushed off easily and it has the wonderful scent of outside.
I grilled burgers for lunch – served with fries and mixed vegetables. Did a shop for ice cream and hot dogs for Teddy. Picked a handful of rhubarb by twisting instead of cutting the stems; Ron made sauce and changed the water filter.
