A View from Mel's Place 10-11-04 |
Well this morning at 430 I sat here and typed out a whole article. Then our internet card crashed, to the point of having to redo the entire pc and I lost it all! Oh well! Now to begin again. Yesterday and today were very productive. We finally have a lawnmower! Yipeeee! The front yard looks so nice! Finally my irises are taller than the grass! MJ has been busy fixing dining room chairs. We got some tough but pretty material on sale a Wal-Mart and he is tightening them and recovering the seat. I am still busy on Christmas gifts. Monday I am going to play with the sewing machine one more time to see if I can get it working. I have had it almost a year and have not gotten it to work yet. Now that the temp job over, I plan to finish my fall cleaning. I am not only doing the inside but the yard is getting an overhaul too. I am moving all the iris to a larger bed away form the house, I am hoping the sunnier location will help them grow more! I will be getting several types of seed from friends for next year’s flower garden, and I want to get things all neat and nice! I reactivated an old injury in my left wrist with all the hand sewing, and extra computing, so next week end I may have to break down and get a brace. I hate the brace, it limits my mobility way too much, but resting my wrist is just not working well enough. Well the evening is cool and a touch breezy, the cicadas have eased their nightly song, and I am bushed! So good night my friends until next week! Hugs mel
