Well. Monday morning. Time to pay the bills, time to mow, time to clean up the garden and do some weed whacking. It looks like a lovely day out there with milder temperatures and much less humidity. Never thought it would come!
We’re going to mow this morning – Don is taking the corral, I’m finishing up the part of the front lawn that we didn’t get to last week. Constant rain makes for long grass. We’re busy emptying the dehumidifier bucket – it works so well! I now realize the old one was really on its last legs for a long time. This baby is efficient and we are very happy with it.
Saw one of the groundhogs on the porch the other day. I shooed him away. Then, an hour or so later, I saw a baby bunny on the porch! I’ve never seen any of the many critters on this property so curious about the porch. Chipmunks routinely run across the porch but that’s been it until this summer.
Looking forward to hibernation time in October, if only to have a break from Groundhog Watch.
I’ve been chatting with a friend from college days. We were very close friends during our time studying drama in Michigan. We’re actually going to talk on the phone this week, which I’m really looking forward to. He can do anything; act, direct, design costumes and hats (he designed for the Muppets for years – and SNL, too.) He also designed clothes for dolls, as well as designing his own line of dolls. He’s pretty extraordinary. I’ll share more about him later, but it’s been a joy to reconnect.
Speaking of dolls:
Nina walking Bertie.
Okay. It’s time to make our second cup of coffee and get going!
Stay safe.
Happy Monday.
