Too hot to be out much today other than watering flowers, and recycling, so I did exciting laundry and dishes, glad I'd got out walking recently.
Today's about boots for Pink Rabbit, approved by her and in ice cream colors. Summer boots. Resistance boots.
Who knew I'd come to this? My hands are holding up pretty well to crochet and I'm needing to weave again. The warp weighted loom is on hold till cooler weather, another heatwave being promised next week.
Before the heatwave arrives, Handsome Son is driving me to the dentist to complete the coronation.
Then, while we're in the neighborhood, we're taking a trip we've been meaning to take for about a year, to the thriftie. I must remember to get cash ahead. I don't actually need anything other than a bigger teapot, but you never know.
The flowers are doing well but the split leaf isn't. I've now pushed it under the shade of the butterfly bush, because it's looking sun burned though I thought it was in shade. I may have to do some heavy pruning, but not till the weather cools.
Meanwhile the perennial black eyed susans are getting on fine with the visiting coleus, there's a meaning there.
The susans were rescues when a neighbor left, before the new owner finished ripping out the flowers to make the walkway neat. They're pretty robust, to have survived that, and living with aggressive pachysandra.
And the coleus is a descendant of a packet of seeds several years ago which has supplied several gardens and neighbors with plants. I think they're related to the mint family. Judging by their will to live, I'd say it's likely. Also that there's not much repeat business in coleus seeds.
This afternoon I found Alan Bennett monologues on YouTube, wonderful acting, do check.
I'm in search of more, because the acting is superb.
Thank you to the loyal blogistas who signed up and even show up at Boud's Glimpses. It's so cool, a new adventure using the tech equivalent of two cans and a piece of string.
But I usually like the most primitive way of doing anything, why should this be different.
Happy day everyone, keep cool or warm as needed. But better take advice from someone who's not knitting boots for rabbits. I mean, people, who are you going to trust?
We got this. Nineteen states, now including mine, have now won their case against the feds suing to get voter information.
States 19, feds 0.
And there's so many more victories that you won't see in the oligarch media. Spirits up!
