A little peek at things on the porch.
We are in a stretch of rain-filled days. This morning I looked at the weather app and they’ve added an additional day of rain. It looks like we won’t get a chance to mow until the end of the week and that means the grass will be VERY long. I did sneak in a mow of the corral and back forty on Saturday. Shouldn’t have done it, as I wasn’t feeling well, but I did. However, I did take it easy yesterday and it looks like I’ll have no choice but to do the same for most of this week. The gray skies and endless rain are depressing, but I will say that the “green” out there is very intense and beautiful.
We watched Poltergeist the other night. I hadn’t seen it since it first came out, so it was almost as if I was seeing it for the first time. It’s so good! Though it’s kind of a period movie now, unlike other movies made in the early 80s, the time setting doesn’t reduce its impact. It’s full of powerful performances, not the least of which is that of Jobeth Williams. She is extraordinary. Anyway, I was riveted. I actually had to leave my chair and go sit with Don so he could ‘protect’ me. It was on TCM.
The same talented seamstress that made this dress for Ruby also sent her a bucket hat.
I mean, how adorable is that?
As you can see, I’m getting a wee bit back into the dolls, but it’s hard to get motivated given what’s going on in the real world. I have to force myself to take a picture of them. Or redress them. A couple girls still have their winter sweaters on. Bad mom!
Stay safe.
Happy Monday.
