Yanno, I've got so much to do tomorrow that it leaves almost no time at all to work on my book. Whatever shall I doooo? Maybe I need a secretary.

you will be complaining in a day or 2 that you're bored, you'll do too much at once and leave nothing ... mark my words young lady 🫣
 

Turned into a busy day. After breakfast, DH & I went to the produce store and Costco. Stocked up on some things that I know will be hit with tariffs. Came home and shortly thereafter learned the tariffs will be higher than expected. Supposedly.

The past five hours have been dedicated to food prep for freezing and future meals. Am about to hang up my apron and dive into my book. No idea what I'll eat for dinner though - might just pop some popcorn, slice an apple and call it a day.

Boy! Ma Nature sure was in a bad mood today!!! Severe thunder storms, hail, lightening, tornadoes, flooding, etc!!! And when it was all over, she gave us a beautiful evening!

All that rain made our pond over flow, and that hardly ever happens! The peeper frogs loved it though....they filled the evening with their songs!! I love listening to them! We actually thought that they hadn't survived the winter, but they were out today....only 2 months later than usual.

Tomorrow, we are expected more rain....and Thursday....and Friday....and Saturday....and Sunday!!!

All the sunshine is on our side of The Pond Trila. Sunrise seen here over the river Stour.
This morning I shall be at work again, but this is by pre-arrangement not like the call for help yesterday. Chances are I shall be home by mid afternoon.

My wife has an appointment at one o'clock this afternoon, after which she will be back to the fabric shop. There's a fabric strengthener, the name of which, escapes me. It's needed to reinforce the flies, I prefer a buttoned fly rather than a zipper, although with buttons, when the urge to pee happens, don't ignore it. Unfastening fly buttons when the urgency is impressing, is not recommended. Why buttons and not a zipper? Originality I guess.

It's a glorious morning again, It's coming up to 11am ..I should have been down at the garage with my car now, but I didn't feel great this morning so I called and cancelled until tomorrow...fingers crossed I'll feel more like it

Nothing planned for today now of course,..I'll probably go and tidy up around the garden at some point.

DD sent a picture of these...she won them in the local newspaper crossword ... fab surprise for her...

I am seething.. my eaighbours cntinue to feed the squirrels.. not only do I get nut shells all over my lawns, but I've had to pay for 2 new fence panels because the squirrels running along my trellis broke them which in turn broke the top of the panels...

Thanks for the beautiful picture of the sun! Since you are hogging it all to yourself, I was afraid that I might forget what it looked like! 😏

I'm assuming that your DW makes your britches. As we get older, more urgency tends to make "convince" a bigger consideration! 😅


Personally, I was never good at sewing button holes or zippers. I'm more of a straight line sewer: curtains, pillows cases, etc. Also, craft sewing like needlepoint and cross sitch.
