Well, this wedding will be interesting. The groom is from India and they are starting the service with a Baraat:
"In Hindu and Sikh weddings, the Groom is led to the marriage venue in a procession known as the Baraat. In Sikh Tradition, the Groom arrives wearing a sahara and saafa while carrying a kirpan. He is accompanied by family members, groomsmen, and friends known as baraatis."

They are having some sort of "parade" on 5th Ave. in the nineties. Sounds interesting, like something new I should see.

I used to love doing and seeing new things. What the hell happened to me. That's not a question. I know the answer. Just makes me sad/angry about how low I've fallen.

If I lived in NY, I'd be your plus one, @Pepper! This sounds like a terrific party!!!

just after 3pm..I've got quite a bit done today considering it's so humid...

I sorted all the dates of food which is stored on shelves in the barn .. and brought in everything that needs to be used before August of this year, and put them in the kitchen food cupboards....found a can of white crab dated 2017 decided not to keep that.. :unsure:

I got the winter cover off the bird bath, cleaned it up, filled it with water and added a little bit of blue dye.. it always looks pretty when the sun is shining..

Took up my big turtle mat to wash.. and put away for the winter.. O/H had glued it down.. so I had to use glue remover on the tiles , then wash the floor before I could put the new smaller mat down, and now the big one is in the washing machine.. . It's rubber backed so for the first time since last summer, I've un-reeled the washing line so I'll hang it on there to dry...

Hung 2 more pictures on the stairs wall.. at the top...that makes 7..quite large ones .
I have to use heavy duty masonry picture hooks to hang them, and then both of them were ever so slightly crooked so I used a tiny bit of 3M double sided tape on the corner of the frames to straighten them otherwise it would irritate the heck outta me

Busy girl!!
 
We went into town to walk in the park again today....even ran a little bit. (a very little bit) It was such a nice day, it felt good to be out and not be cold or wet! LOL

After dinner we took the baby chicks out and let them run around in the grass. Andy was very interested, but I had the fly swatter ready, in case he got too close! 😁. I handled the little fluff butts for a while so that they would get used to me. They tired out after about 20 minutes, so I put them back in the barn. They seemed interested to be out, and I think they had a good time. I know that I did! 🐤

Well it's gloriously hot Good Friday here today. I got my hedges all trimmed in both gardens front and rear... swept all that up, and then sprayed some weed killer on the paths... The garden is looking beautiful.. my crocus in the pots are having a resurgence, and the lupins are really growing fast.. . I drilled some holes in the new plant pots... . I'm finding it more and more painful to grip things due to the OA in my right hand.. so I did squeal a bit with the pain a few times today.. 😖

Went over to the Woods, to get some photos of the bluebells. They're not out for long so I like to get pictures every year...and it's such a beautiful day today.. so warm.. I went out with a sleeveless shirt on... and shorts..

Your pictures have brightened my day!
 
Went to the big Walmart in Craig yesterday for groceries, and the hardware store for a new collar, and nail clippers for Li'l Bit. She barfed twice this morning right after I fed her. Always pleasant first thing in the morning. Kind of like having kids around again. I've been giving her a raw egg with her kibble in the morning. Hasn't seemed to bother her in the past, but might back off that for a few days. Back to working in the shop today. Took a screen shot of the tank pic I talked about in an earlier post. It's a little blurry, but gives the basic idea. May take the dog for a walk latter I need one too.

Really frustrating, that didn't work either.

@hollydolly How pretty!

My gramma told me that the weather on Good Friday is an indicator of what we should expect for the next 40 days and nights.

It's pleasant and sunny today. Tomorrow, Sunday, Monday are expected to be full-on rainy days.

What? My gramma wouldn't have lied to me :mad:

‘You’re the first person, I’ve read and heard mention this in a very long time.
