sinjunToday ... let's see. Got up to discover there'd been a power brown out sometime between my going to sleep and waking up. Was very glad I didn't have to get up at any specific time. Finished reading "Komarr" by Lois McMaster Bujold over my coffee. Brunch was bagel with cheddar cheese melted in the oven. Yum. Went outside to garden, after taking my claritin.
Good thing to do when you've a mild grass allergy. take the allergy meds before you go weed/plant/whatever. it works wonderfully well. Anyway, got the lilac soil loosened, and added topsoil. Planted the dianthus around it. They're edible flowers, if they survive. We only have 4 of them, so far. Also Ariel and I weeded the big front garden, and planted Violas there. Yes, they too are edible. They're in between the grass and the lovely white flowering trees. Then I planted the Hosta (Blue) to one side. And we planted the Dragon's Blood by the big old tree near the road. Weeded some more.
My uncle came over and he connected the garage door opener that Ariel bought. Was way nice of him. And now we have the automatic door opener, which is awesome!
Alery arrived. We took a break and then planted a small lilac - it will grow. A red current bush, and a Rose of Sharon. Okay, it ended up being three of htem, but I didn't realize that at the time. We also planted some green onions and 4 tomato plants. Ariel also transplanted a few of the inside plants that needed a hand. Droopy lives again. I think we have 4 droopies at the moment. Which is good. Droopy, for the uninitiated, is a lovely leafy plant with small delicate yellow/green flowers that open at night. It's related to the Jasmine family or in it or something. And it droops when it needs water. One of the few plants even I can't kill. Raked some grass. Discovered grubs. Yick. Must get grub killer tomorrow. *sigh* Watered. Yay us. Very productive.
Went out to Klondike's ... darn place was closed for remont. Go figure.
So we went to Lonestar which accomplished the same thing. And then to the movies. I saw Shrek and can I just say ...
I want one!
Nope, not the donkey, not the ogre. Not the princess.
I WANT that pink dragon. *drool*
'nuff said.
