We had enough soil from prior digging to fill in the lilac.  Ron did a great job excavating and hauling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our timing was good: it started sprinkling just as we were putting away tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After mulling over placement for days, I&#8217;m pleased with how everything looks.  The lilac will get plenty of sun and I hope the silene regias and the winterberry will do okay in their part shade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I also weeded and cleaned up the ferns.  They were a mess, knocked over from who knows what, an animal or maybe the last heavy rain.  Garden looks 100% better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We skipped Five Pound Horse at First Friday in North Adams last evening, but turns out, after watching a couple of videos, Ron isn&#8217;t crazy about their music, so just as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We steamed corn for lunch.  I sauteed leftover chopped vegetables and an egg\/breadcrumb mixture left from prepping eggplant for a casserole.  All very filling.  Trying to unload odds and ends from the frig.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ron took Jett for a long walk up the hill.  He kept Jett busy while I worked on the Inventory app.  Keeping the functionality the same, doing cleanup.  Changed &#8220;products&#8221; to &#8220;relief items&#8221; in the code and in SQL.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Met with Andi yesterday.  Got the code on the new machine and a successful database connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Up at 4 am yesterday, took a nap in the afternoon but was pretty groggy afterwards.  Slept better last night.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We got our four new plants in the ground before a deluge this afternoon.
