The Sun
The sun has heat. The sun has the ability to promote yard work.
Dennis was able to get on the zero-turn with no problems. The two grab bars were worth the $200.00. Our acre here around our homestead did need a mowing. It came up in clumps here and there. It will be able to take off with a more even growth. The mowing was with a dirt storm that ensued. First mowing of the season under the belt. The blue barn acre for a time in the coming week.
We had purchased several pump up gallon sprayers at Harbor Freight. One is labeled bugs and the other is labeled weeds. This afternoon I may have sacrificed several Russian Sage perennials. There was an infestation of Night Shade among the flowers. That is such a nasty weed. The roots crawl under the dirt like quack. If need be, I might have to do some digging to get rid of it.
Several times over the years we have talked about our flatware in the kitchen drawer. The forks were always the main topic. Spearing a well-cooked Brussels sprout would be out of the question. No can do. In between time this afternoon the flatware drawer has been cleaned out. Sifting and sorting what will be kept and what will be no more. In yesterday’s mail, a service for eight of Onida flatware came to our front deck. When I ordered it, I chose the widest fork handles available. We had such a mod-podge in that drawer. I ordered the set of forks, knives and spoons. The favorite serving pieces will be returning to the drawer with several of those extras being retired. I have an emotional attachment to several serving old-time pieces.
Sometimes we look at what we have for our daily living without actually seeing it.
The new week is tomorrow and we have no appointments. Sweet.
With that I take my leave. ♥
