sunday

I need some sun.

I'll probably spend some time outside today.

I'm thinking about pulling out my cantaloupe plant and moving it to

another spot. Maybe it would do better if I moved it.

 

Boyfriend hates the wall just below my deck steps.

I built it myself with rocks I collected

from the dirt we dug when the water pipe coming in to my house burst.

We had to dig a 4 foot deep by 60 or 80 foot long trench to lay new pipe.

Because of the layout of my house, we were unable at that spot to get the trench deep enough.

So I had to put in a circular wall, and fill the center with dirt until the pipe was as deeply buried as required

to keep it from freezing and then maybe bursting.

So he'd like to re-do that wall. I kind of like it but am not against changing it.

So maybe we'll work on it today. But probably not. Especially if I have my way. :O)

 

Daughter is doing ok.

She's limping around on crutches.......and some of the time

she's limping around without the crutches.

She's afraid that if she takes off the brace her knee will

dislocate. Plus she's wearing a compression bandage to prevent further bleeding, and that is not allowed to be removed.

So we put a garbage bag over her leg and duck tape it closed

for when she showers.

 

Middle son bought a boat.

He's practically lived in it the past 3 days.

I hope he's having a blast.

I asked him to not drown.........and then told him about my friend Terri's father drowning when we were in the 3rd grade. He was partying on a boat and fell into the river. (I think it's why she's a drinker and why she pushes every man she dates out of her life.)

Son promised me he wouldn't drink and drive the boat, and that he wouldn't drown. (He probably needs a beer after conversing with me. )

So then I made his older brother promise me the same thing......he laughed cause he knows how I am, and loves me anyway.............and he promised me he wouldn't drown ......................... they are men...........and capable, intelligent, responsible young guys.................................but I have to say "don't drown" because if I don't say it and they end up doing it, then it will be too late.
