In case you were worried that I might miss Gary, be assured. He called early this morning about some urgent information he'd lost. Also about something he'd done for me, which in fact I'd taken care of after it stopped functioning, no problem.
So I tracked down the info and got back to him to his great relief. And he plans a run over to next door to check into things..
Meanwhile, this morning while the front yard was in shade, I cleared the daylily foliage, and a lot of dayflower spent foliage. This revealed the remains of the flowering Russian sage the landscapers had hacked down which is evidently trying for a comeback. The area looks much better, less end-of-summer now.
After the exertion, filling two bags with debris, I was too tired to tote them out back to dispose of.
When I retrieve my energy, I'll do that. They'll dry a bit and get lighter too in the meantime.
Meanwhile I'm very happy with the new knotting, mainly because I can do it without stressing out my hands.
The summer of bandweaving and related projects has been a success. I now have skills I didn't have before and projects I didn't have before, and friends now own items they like. It's all good.
Happy day everyone!
Wasn't there a song or a book title "How can I miss you if you if you won't go away?"
ReplyDeleteOh! Here it is- a song by Dan Hicks and the Hot Licks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sv8I1-jbahg
Excellent recording. Might remind you of someone you know.
You got a lot of work done!
Great minds. That was exactly the song in my mind while I was talking with him.
DeleteYou inspire me to try new things. I just can't decide what those new things should be! ;)
ReplyDeleteJust jump in!
DeleteI get out in my garden now and again thinking I'd like to change it but really nothing grows but the succulents so I end up just watering and going back inside.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds fine. No use battling nature.
