[gottawonder]

Today I am grateful for:

Warm, but not HOT like the last few days.

Getting one or two of the piles of shit picked up and put away, with some things going straight to the back of the truck for our next trip to the dump. A bit of a drop in the bucket, but at least something.

Got the big half barrel planters moved up to the front step, and planted the rest of the bedding plants.

Pulled more grass and weeds out of the garden by the raspberries. Also pulled grass away from the base of some of the shrubs, where I can't mow that close to them.

A quiet evening, watched "Ninja Assassin" which was pretty good. I've watched it before.

Friday: Fairly hot, with a brief thundershower.

We had to take our ride on lawnmower to the guy down the road who does small engine repair. We ended up sitting outside and visiting with him and his family for a while. They're nice people.

Then we dropped in on some friends of ours to return some tool we borrowed a while ago, and to give them some rhubarb. We helped them unload some things from his Mom's house they're trying to clear out. Again, we visited outside.

Went to see River, and worked on some of the core groundwork exercises since they are still not translating to smoothness in the obstacles. I rode for a while too. Saw some people at a safe distance.

An oddly social day. People who have had their shots are being more social again, I've noticed.

Painted for a while.
