Yeah, just "stuff".
1. Brought my electric mower to the designated repair store last week. Bought it from Home Depot last year. One day, the blade stopped turning. At least it is still under warrantee. But I didn't know that Home Depot owned Ryobi. So actually, there was not really anywhere else I could have brought it too. They will contact me in about a week to tell me if the repair is warranteed. I bet 50% no. But I will still have it repaired if half the cost of a new one.
2. I was late planting my heirloom tomatoes. In 2016, I had a bowlful by this time...
3. Have to show you this...
I had 2 others (with different faces) 40 years ago, but a clumsy housemate broke 2. I got my own house shortly after that to escape such people. Been happy on my own ever since.
4. Have a list of house improvements/maintenance, but tree work comes first as one dead tree can reach the house and the storms blow in that direction. So safety first, improvements second. The 3rd tree service bid will come after a visit Monday. It will be good to have the dead trees safely removed. Then I can focus on the house.
5. I grow a lot of small leafy crops in planters on the deck. On a good time they look like this...
You can cut them back several times and they re-grow. but eventually, they don't grow back. And I had new Boy Choy growing, but some critter came up on the deck the other day and ate them all. Have to replant inside under lights.
6. Have corn, beans, and cukes growing. There is still time til harvest. And some crops like broccoli, carrots, and spinach can be planted in 2 weeks here for harvesting in the cool weather of October/November.
