    Howdy. It's terrific Tuesday! A bit cooler today with 80% chance of rain. If I want to pick blueberries, I need to get on out there soonish before the deluge.

    They got about halfway across the yard yesterday with the ditch and it looks like they are trying to get as far as the driveway today, though weather may not allow actually doing the driveway today. I guess they will let me know if they plan to get to that today.

    I got three big bowls of blueberries this morning. Some of that, no doubt, was left from yesterday since I waited too late and got caught in the rain after only one bowl worth and had to come in. Looks like I will be freezing another two or three quarts soon. Maybe today!

    Right now I am cooling off (and drying off - the bushes were very wet) from the picking. After the cool off I may take a shower, but that may wait until after lunch. They are out there working, and piled rocks (for the drainage ditch) all over the end of the driveway, after asking me if I needed to get out this morning. I think they may well finish that up and do the driveway today, which would be fine with me.

    Howdy. It's wonderful Wednesday! Hot with 50% chance of rain. Not a lot on the agenda today. Sit around and wonder what the construction workers are up to. Peek out the garage door windows occasionally to see. Eat some blueberries for sure. Dishwasher is running now. Did laundry yesterday.

    Howdy. It's thrilling Thursday! Should be hot and thundery today, especially in the morning and late evening. Not a lot on the agenda for today but pretty definitely a nap. I woke at 2:00 this morning to a severe cramp in my right leg and was in agony for 10 to 15 minutes, alternately walking and trying to hold it straight, while crying out in pain. If J were home, I am sure it would have been loads of fun for him, as it would have had him awake to share the misery. I didn't sleep well after that, with flashes of residual pain.

    Orion did his best to help, giving me a nice kitty massage, complete with healing purr effects, for 10 or 15 minutes, just after I laid back down. I didn't have the heart to tell him that he wasn't massaging the right area.

    They finally installed the concrete conduit under the driveway yesterday, and then cut my internet (third time!) as they proceeded to the neighbor's driveway. Xfinity installed a new, bright orange, cable from the box by the road, to the house. This looks like the cable they usually use for the trunk cable that goes all down the road. They will be back to bury it in a couple of weeks, presumably, and hopefully the destruction...er, construction has proceeded enough now that it won't be cut again in the interval.

    Howdy. I'd have beat you on posting, but I was at the tag office. We received J's motorcycle license plate yesterday, and another plate, addressed to us, in a separate envelope, but containing a normal sized vehicle plate for someone in Lawrenceville. Somehow they put copies of J's registration in the mailing window pockets of both envelopes. As the expiration for the large plate was set for November, and we use birth month for renewals in Georgia, I hope the lady in Lawrenceville is enjoying her new car!

    And I hope her plate gets to her before her temporary tag expires.

    The clerk I spoke to must have been fairly new as she hadn't a clue what to do at first, just saying that they don't mail those from the satellite office here. When I pointed out that I had nowhere else to take it, and certainly wasn't going to drive to Lawrenceville to turn it in at the courthouse (or perhaps deliver it to the rightful owner?) she took it to ask her supervisor.

    I could have taken that opportunity to flee, though there was no way they could get me to take it back into my possession anyway, but waited, and almost laughed out loud when I heard the supervisor saying, loudly, as the clerk headed back to me, "And be sure to thank him!"

    The clerk did thank me and said that they would take care of getting it back in the mail to the right party.

    Maybe you can't fight City Hall, but apparently you CAN work with them...

    As part of the city/county sidewalk construction project (that we didn't want in the first place) in front of our house, they created the horrendous ditch pictured below, though we had never needed anywhere near that volume of drainage before.

    When I inquired, I was then told that they were not even planning to install a guard rail to keep people from falling in!

    YESTERDAY I sent an email to the mayor, explaining that this was a safety hazard and could result in serious liability issues, and that it would quickly become a trash collecting eyesore. And, of course, suggested a resolution using buried conduit instead of the ditch.

    He responded almost immediately, promising to have it looked into.

    THIS MORNING a small crowd of people arrived, and after a brief look at the existing mess, summoned me for a consultation. The Construction Manager assured me that he wasn't happy with what he saw, and that he would take it back to the designers and engineers, and do his best to eliminate the ditch for us!

    I honestly thought that we would be stuck with that ugly ditch, and was hoping to at least get guard rails.

    Now it looks like I may get everything I wanted them to do to fix it!

    Howdy. It's another hot day with 50% chance of rain. Not a lot an the agenda today, other than possibly freezing some more berries and, hopefully, picking more berries.

    Needless to say, I've been up for hours, but distracted by this, that, and the other things.

    Howdy. It's sumptuous Sunday! I was up past pumpkin time last night because J drove his motorcycle home from Kentucky and, with many stops, didn't get home until after 11:00. I had a large handheld style blueberry pie waiting for him, but didn't actually get to see him eat it, as it turned out he had not stopped for supper on the way. After a little bit of this and that, I went to bed and he stayed up to figure out what he wanted to eat, besides pie. Honestly, the only plate I noticed this morning was the plate I had put the pie on, but he might have slipped another plate or bowl into the dishwasher.

    I never did get around to freezing any more berries yesterday, but did spend over an hour out there picking 4 more big bowls of them. J was a little bit nonplussed to see about two gallons of blueberries sitting in various containers in the refrigerator.

    I definitely need to freeze another gallon (or more) today.

    Howdy. It's terrific Tuesday! A bit cooler and no chance of rain. I should get out to Kroger, and maybe PetSmart today if possible, and include a stop by the vet for more 1 ML syringes with needles, as I used the last one in the house for Lilo's Tuesday shot this morning. She hates the shot but loves the crunchy treats she gets right after!

    Howdy. It's wonderful Wednesday! Another fairly hot one with no chance of rain. I gave away some more fresh picked blueberries last night, to a Thai restaurant owner friend. Not a lot on the agenda for today. Maybe some laundry, and I need to get some lamb stew going by 10 at the latest. I have the potatoes and slow cooker sitting on the counter to remind me.

    Howdy. It's sensational Saturday! Pool party today, and I haven't checked to see how many are on the guest list. I can always just bow out early. Baked beans for 50+ are baking in the oven and I have some freshly picked blueberries packaged up as a host(ess) gift.

    Oddly enough, there is another one planned for the next weekend. Not sure if I am really up to another so soon. Heck, I am not sure I am up to today's party, but I'll do my best to keep the social anxiety down. Maybe bring a bottle or two of wine? LOL! I DO have to drive back, so maybe not.

    Howdy all y'all. It's sumptuous Sunday! Looks like another hot one, with 20% chance of rain. Yesterday's party was great. The beans were a hit, and the crowd ate oodles of burgers and hot dogs. I ate one of each, sans buns, and a decent serving of the beans with a few nibbles of sweets, including a few pieces of broken cookies (the calories leak out through the broken edges you know) and one, whole, small chocolate chip cookie. Then a bite here and there of various salads, some veggie chips, and a tiny bit of fruit. J managed a late lunch (he was working registration) of baked beans, several different potato salads, and I think I may have seen a cookie or two on his plate.

    I brought the hosts a container of blueberries, forgetting that they have blueberry bushes too, but they still appreciated them, saying that they have not really had time to properly pick, other than handfuls for snacking so now had enough to make some muffins and maybe some pancakes.

    My breakfast this morning was sausage and pancakes. I leave it to the imagination of the reader to guess what kind of pancakes those might have been. Needless to say, I made (and ate) more than I needed, but did save a stack in case J might want pancakes for lunch. If he doesn't, I may save them for tomorrow's breakfast.

    Might need to do some laundry today.

    Howdy. It's terrific Tuesday! Terrifically hot anyway, and likely the same tomorrow. I think I will have to pass on trying to meet for coffee tomorrow as I will likely be staying in, other than trying to revive some plants that a friend is sending that are supposed to arrive Wednesday. He insisted on sending them, though I have doubts about whether a couple of clumps of Lenten Rose will survive several hot days of travel and possibly sitting in a hot metal mailbox...though they may be too big for the mailbox (one can hope) and would then end up in the covered front entry.

    I have eaten a banana, and there is a HoneyCrisp apple waiting on the table. The sugar gliders will get a wedge or two, peeled, from it.

    I did get a small (one standard can worth) crock of baked beans going just because I suddenly felt in the mood. I used wildflower honey instead of brown sugar. These aren't going anywhere and don't have to be vegan.

    I think I really prefer brown sugar, as, when I tasted the sauce, it just seemed to be missing something, and I think that something is that slight molasses flavor from the brown sugar. I did NOT add any brown sugar as they are already quite sweet enough from the honey.

    I like them with honey, or even maple syrup, as the sweetener. It's just that I haven't used honey in a long time, since I am usually making a huge dish for a party and want to go vegan. I have, sometimes, used maple syrup in the party beans, if I was out of (or short on) brown sugar. I am sure today's beans will taste great after cooking for a while so that the flavors and spices all get to commingle.

    I will make the potato salad and deviled eggs later.

    I grilled some tofu for J and slathered it with ghost chili barbecue sauce.

    Howdy. Hot with 60% chance of rain today and I hope we get it! Not much on the agenda. Maybe some house cleaning. And a nap. Kiara was the most upset by the fireworks. Some of them were from just two doors down and sounded so loud to me that I can't believe the people down there can possibly have not gone deaf from the din.

    In addition to the "agenda" posted earlier, I remembered I needed to place a plethora of plants in the yard. OK...4 clumps/clusters, but there were a lot of bulbs in two of the clumps and it was already awfully warm out there!

    One clump of white (I think) Lenten rose, to the left of the little pine tree, and one clump of red-orange Crocosmia (I think) to the right of the little pine.

    Another cluster of Crocosmia (I think) and a clump of red (I think) Lenten Rose)

    Howdy. It's magnificent Monday! Another warm/hot day with a decent chance of afternoon showers, and SOME chance of morning showers. I might actually get out to Kroger today or even do some laundry that I didn't do yesterday. Maybe.

    Howdy. It's terrific Tuesday! Not a lot on the agenda but definitely a nap! I was up past pumpkin time since we went to the Atlanta Orchid Society meeting last night and then had a late supper at Su's, a little Chinese place not far from the Botanic Garden, surrounded by clubs, mostly gay. You might like it, as they have all sorts of vegetarian "meat" and even seafood, not that J or I ever order that, though I think I did order the "pork" once, just out of curiosity. J usually orders tofu and I get real chicken, beef, or pork.

    There has been absolutely no construction activity on our street since that Friday morning after they came around to investigate my inquiry/complaint. The construction manager did say it might be a while as it all had to be run back through the engineers and planning and design stages again. That morning, the work crew, who had actually already arrived, but not started work, just packed up all their equipment and went off somewhere else to work.

    We have been enjoying the quiet, though the front still looks like a war zone. LOL!

    Howdy. Another typical summer day. The dishwasher is running now, and not a lot else on the agenda.

    Well I did add a thing or two to my "agenda" for the day so far. I have my dinner of bœuf bourguignon, or, to be totally accurate, beef Tempranillo, started in a crock pot. And I plan to make some kind of stir fry for J for his dinner later. I have yellow squash, bell pepper, broccoli, onion, and carrots as the vegetables, and will fry up some tofu as well.
