Thanks Diane, I am happy too! And even more happy when I'll get new windows later this autumn!
I got terribly tired after the repairs were done, and haven't done anything really. I went for a walk and chatted with a friend. I will go to sleep very early today!

OnTheMend, I'm exhausted after anyone does anything in my home, it's the tension from having someone in. I don't know if it's the same for you, you're probably more social than I (just about everyone is more social than I!) so maybe it's less stressful.
I got a very long call from my decluttering client, and now I'm eating lunch. I'm going to watch a little more of the movie I have to return, I can't renew it and it's due tomorrow. I really need to get a DVD player, it's not very relaxing watching a movie sitting in front of my computer. The only relaxing place would be downstairs, and I would need to buy a tv too. And I can't decide which kind to get, so I keep putting it off. I have so many really good DVDs of old tv shows and movies that I like, it would be good to be able to watch them.
After lunch I have to make myself keep working on the fridge.
Diane

Good afternoon everypony!
I just went out and asked my neighbor if he could show me how to use my leaf blower. Then I could not find the leaf blower. Did it get stolen? Does XSO have it? Am I looking straight at it but not seeing it? Anyway, he is going to mow my lawn with the tractor later in the week when it dries up. I picked up sticks.
I'm glad I got to chat with him. He and his wife are recovering from Covid. I'm so glad they are feeling better. I'm hoping he can show me how to use the pressurewasher as well. I need to figure things out like oil:gas ratios for the engines, etc. The perils of not wanting to deal with the yardwork all these years means I don't have a clue.
Also done: filled water feature
long talk w/ LR texted DNIL re: her RV checked online balance x2 checked email

A couple friends stopped by & we went outside in the heat & stood out & talked wth them. It's so sad & frustrating, and embarrassing that I could not welcome them in. I told them that next time we hope to invite them inside not sure how much needs to be done, maybe set a date and invite friends for Halloween? desposito yer, I might dry fresh seeds on tissue paper and stuff it into an envelope, old medicine bottles work, I've stuffed seed packs into old video tape boxes too....I've bought a couple of packets of seed to replace the old ones (oopppss😒😏) TBH I've had more luck in starting new lavender plants from cuttings, despite scattering random bundles of mature sprigs around the place only one plant ever selfseeded. Nasturtiums on the other hand can become botanical clutter once allowed to develop a single seed!! Today... --Finally had the ultrasound on my sausage fingers, though probably be a month before I hear any feedback. --Aqua Aerobics after, and the side trip after to get a couple of storage boxes for the kitchen gave me a lucky find of reduced late season strawberry plants 😊🍓....I have to confess the video I watched last night about increasing shipping costs & prices nudged me into buying a couple of spare washing up bowls, but they can be used for holding cleaning supplies for now , and I guess as panic buying goes, it's not too bad 🤷🏼♀️ -- I was determined to make up for my naughtiness by setting to work on the kitchen., .. --bit more washing up too. -- cancelled tomorrow's aqua so I can get stuck into tidying outdoors before it warms up,,, but may head down to the river instead to cool off in the afternoon as we are getting a brief glimpse of summer temperatures this week.

Hi scholar, cando and decade!
Thanks for the seed info decade! Interesting that you don't find lavender growing easily from seed. If the handyman can prepare some garden areas for me, I was going to try putting some seed out this fall to see if it grows in the spring. And then also save some to try starting inside. I guess I'll see what happens.
Well, almost nothing done for the rest of the day, I talked to my decluttering client again, then I spent a lot of time online deciding on some new address labels to order. I wanted some Christmas ones, but didn't love any of the many available designs, so got some winter themed ones instead, plus some bird and cat. Not a necessary purchase, but a fun one.
I took the dog for a walk, but it was a little warm so we didn't go too far. I can't wait until it gets chilly outside, hopefully she'll be able to walk farther then, she loves her walks.
I did not get to the rest of the fridge. There is always tomorrow...
I'm going to eat dinner now.
Diane
