Wednesday

47°f/8.3°C, warming up quickly. Clear skies.

Morning coffee,


with David Austin roses. 


So, yesterday: mulched, moved the chicken coop, did a lot of stringtrimming, packed some larger ebay sales, went to open mic.  

We had plenty of porch time, too, and nice visit with son Derek who helped move the coop. He had just run over his phone while helping a friend fix his golf cart, which was so sad, since he had just bought the phone ($800) two days before. Fortunately he had insurance on it, so a replacement is already on the way. Whew. How many of you have done something similar? I messaged him later, noting that lots of people drop their phones in the toilet.  He wrote back, "did that with my last one!" Larry has run over or lost at least 3 phones. I am sure my time is coming.

Open mic last night featured my friend Pete Kosky, a writer, songwriter and musician who is also very funny. It was another fine evening with friends.


Today has started off quite noisy. Tree trimmers are here to clear the electric right-of-way,  and their saws were going at 7:30 am. Now I am on the way to an eye appointment,  my first checkup in years, while Larry goes to pick up grass clippings from our friend Glenn. Busy days.

  1. Running over his phone? What a catastrophe! Dan is constantly misplacing his but has always found it so far.

  4. Running over a phone 2 days after getting it would be heartbreaking. Glad he had insurance on it. The worst I've ever done to mine is drop it.
