So another day of trying to get the left side working. This picture is titled Courtyard of the Hospital at Aries. Where Vincent must have stayed at some point in time. It looks lovely.
Smelled of skunk last night when I went out to cover the containers.
I was left alone yesterday afternoon...and I decided to go looking for the hoses....so I could stop carrying heavy containers of water...having to balance myself etc.....I found two hoses thrown in the woody section of the lawn. Now the guys cutting the grass could have done that....so I dragged them both out-- hoses not the lawn guys--. One is on the hose holder my husband made out of wood and attached to the garage (so I could water my tomato plants which were on the driveway- back in the days when I grew tomatoes- when husband would eat tomatoes)....the other I dragged out to the front porch. It's out of the way of anyone walking... safety first around here. I held one end of the hose and walked....didn't lift or carry anything... the hose itself was very very dirty.
I HAD promised not to do anything that could be dangerous. No one was killed or injured.
It's NOW where I can fill the containers and even water the containers without having to lift and carry anything heavier than a gallon of water. I can reach one of the Peach trees and two of the containers and the two birdbaths....The second Peach tree I need to use the French watering cans.... IF I had found a sprinkler attachment.....I could be sprinkling the trees. I did not. I have one gallon bottles of water by the driveway container. I promised myself I wouldn't drag the hose over there... that I wouldn't drag the hose there. Because I DO NOT WANT TO FALL DOWN.
So, that's the Gardening Report.... Library was short visit. I filled my bag but not sure I am going to like anything I selected. I am reading Nine Women, One Dress (Jane Rosen). Nine women who at pivotal points in Life in New York City wear this one black dress. I'm a bit under 3/4 done reading. It's holding my interest even though it takes me a page or two to figure out we have changed women and to remember who they are.. Author goes back and forth. And that's the Book Report.
I could delve into the Refrigerator Report......I buy things we don't need and need things I don't buy. I got the extra large gallon of milk...I've run out twice we discussed the pros and cons.... I CAN finish two boxes of Bran Flakes in a week so I got two boxes.. I was questioned regarding a protein for the week. Last week I had Pulled Chicken. I bought Hot Dogs this week but I do have Pulled Pork also from last week... I wanted ice cream but didn't get any. I did get a very large bottle of lemonade. Water was suggested as a liquid I could drink. I said I had been drinking water. A very large cup after watering the containers each day. I had seen up close what NOT drinking water can do to a person (husband) and that isn't going to be ME.
So...The One Dress book and then I begin another. I kept Mrs. Nash's Ashes....I want to read that one again. So those are the Reports for today.....the Sudokos continue to evade solving.
