HAPPY NEW WEEK!
I just walked through the door, back from dog-sitting for friends in Indianapolis. Except for cuddling the dogs, it was an awful time in every possible way. I don't think I'm going to do it again. Probably won't be asked. My friend and I had a bad argument on the way home. I will do you all a favor and not detail my 5 days for you.
No wildlife stories from me this week, except that there were also raccoons in the attic there.
I will now read and catch up with all your news. Everyone have a good week. Love and hugs to all.
Hey Diane: Thanks for starting us off. Sorry about the argument with your friend. Didn't you have a similar experience some years back? Wonder what she'll do next time she needs a dogsitter....
Watched the opening ceremony of the Olympics: Very French and - to me at least - some lovely/fascinating/clever components (also a couple that I didn't like) but overall it seemed somewhat disjointed. even though the at-home audience had the benefit of multiple cameras that made for comparatively seamless transitions. But I can only wonder how the on-the-ground spectators followed it all..... and then of course the wretched weather.
OG: I love it when an off-chance decision pays off. Golden Chippings? They sound pretty.
AQ: I hope you're busy with all kinds of positive things.
Have been spending a lot of time catching up in the garden: Spread Blood Meal around the mandarin orange tree and then added mulch after giving it a good soakinng; tomorrow it's the orange tree's turn. Also have to do something about my keyboard which is sticking more all the time.
Anyway, take care all and have a good Sunday.
