Thursday
RLS woke me up around 6:30, but I stayed in bed until Chris left for work. I did some Sudoku, and brushed my teeth. I went to the kitchen to get through my morning list. At 9, I went to the garden. I watched the sprinkler run. I watered the edges which still seemed dry. I sprayed a tumeric solution on the plants. I pulled mint and weeds. I dug up a sunflower and brought it home to plant in the flowerbed where nothing else grows.
When I got home, I texted Saronna and Keli about yogurt. Then I took a jar to Saronna and chatted with the family. Then I went to the library and dropped off a jar for Keli.
Just then Melanie called me, so I headed out. She needed some figures so when I got home, I ate fiber gel and sent her pics of the loan numbers.
I made breakfast and ate it while watching The Highwire. I stayed by my laptop all afternoon so I could respond to her e-mails quickly. I took a break to repair a bag Chris got at work. I read e-mail and articles and messages.
Chris came home with a pizza. He baked some fish for me. I ran to the library to print out some forms and to get another book. When I got home, I signed the forms and took pics. I sent them off, then ate the fish and continued reading.
I went out to wash dirt back into the gopher holes and to set traps. But on the second mound, the critter came up for air. And … a trap was no longer necessary. I attacked a third mound and set the second trap there.
I emptied the spray bottle of tumeric solution and refilled it with a dilution of kelp. I worked on my blog before going to the garden to spray it on the plants. When I got back, I sprayed the home plants, then made tea and we watched TV. Chris and I both read online till bedtime.
