A Short
This is a shortie of a blog posting.
The winds were brisk with cool temps. I had been looking out the bathroom window since the water had gone down on the patio. I needed to strike while the soil was soft. Snuggles and Honey Bunny stuck with me the entire time as I pulled up vegetation that was less than desirable. Dennis raked up what I had pulled and piled it onto the patio for it to dry out for burning. My clippers were needed for volunteer trees that were enjoying multiple years of growing. The dandelion tool was the last to deal with. Again, soil so wet I could get the root.
It was time for a break and a bite of noon lunch.
Dennis was off for his daily ride around town in the little red pickup.
I used both of my walking sticks and I headed up the street. I noticed yesterday that the Smith family had a huge dumpster delivered to their driveway. They live a block and a half from us and less than a block from the creek that had shut down the street for several days due to flooding. I wanted them to know that I had empathy. It seemed the thing for me to do. Yup . . . it had been their basement floor drain that had let water come up from the floor drain. Been there . . . done that. Amazingly as they had put some salvageable items to the curb, it seemed to disappear as fast as they put it out.
A morning of yard work and a good walk, my eyes seem to want to shut. I may put a YouTube video on the television and see what happens.
With that I take my leave. ♥
