I’m a morning person, so the forum is usually my first stop. Nice I get moving and get into things, then online stuff waits till later in the afternoon. But I’ve been busy this week with yard stuff while we have sone nice weather and I want to wrap up these projects. Ai got all the dirt in my new flower beds by the porch, the grass is all mowed and trimmed as is the grass at the sub entrance, got two planter boxes planted with petunias and patriotic flag banners hung in my fence. Yesterday was out getting flowers. Haven’t found all of what I was looking for, so may have to substitute for this year. Plan to stop at one place in way home from church today. Wanted to put some hosta in my beds by the porch, but I think there may be too much sun for them there. Haven’t seen any tomato plants around, but forgot to check at the one greenhouse. Decided that I am foregoing doing a garden planter this year. Been spending a lot of green on porch project and the landscaping around it, so am going to just concentrate on that and not buy zumpteen bags of dirt to fill another planter box. Will go to farmers market once produce starts coming in. Thinking of actually selling the big planter box I built this spring as I can always make another. Somebody’s always looking for one. We shall see.
Still getting used to the new truck though and its technology. They changed the dashboard configuration, so have to get used to where what is. And some of the buttons are smaller and hard to see. They say that they are putting stuff in to make driving safer, but to me it’s just adding driver distraction. You can do almost anything in today’s vehicles, but how can you pay attention to the road when you have screens, gps or maps to keep an eye on, various dials, push buttons etc. to adjust, and whatever, plus other stuff that’s available. And then there’s syncing the phone etc. Driving and phone calls do not go hand in hand. Not saying it’s all bad because some of it is good. But I think they get carried away. Like my one friend says, the vehicles are smarter than we are. But it Drives like a dream and has been working since got it, hauling dirt and flowers. Lookng forward to a nice road trip with it. Couple coming up in the next week.
Tine to get my hair asked and get ready for church. Hope you all have a nice Sunday.
No beach traffic and nasty fumes here, yea. I now live about 15 minutes from Chestertown, home of Washington college. The town also have a large Saturday farmers market. The Modern Stoneage Kitchen makes everything from scratch including delicious sourdough bread. #2 daughter keeps me supplied with bread. I go to bed at 11 and get up at 7. I thought I was a morning person until I read the sleep patterns here. lol The sun is peeking through so will get on with the day. Have a safe holiday and give a thought to the reason we celebrate.
