I decided I am staying home today. I dont need to be running about without a plan. I was thinking about going to grocery store but i have food in house so i need meal plan more than going on road trip which is never to just grocery and back but includes me goofing off too.
First up kitty care🌸, my breakfast🌸

Good morning TML, I hope you have a productive weekend ahead.
Bree, have a good trip, and rest up from all your cleaning!
Today is cooler, so I'm hoping to get some things done in the yard. Right now I'm eating breakfast and waiting for the library to open so I can get that over with. Last night, at about 8, there was 5 minutes of thunder, and about 2 minutes of rain. Then it all stopped--once again, the empty containers in the yard were damp inside but did not even have an eighth of an inch of accumulation. Before I leave I have to get some mail ready to take to the mailbox.

Good morning ☕ Cool and sunny here ☺
Got the neighbor man to bring my bike up from the basement. Cleaned it up. (Was down there for 2 years.)
Put a For Sale sign on front and back. Walked over to the fall festival across the street at 9 am to see if it caught anyone's eye. Nope.
Going to try again later.
Ate breakfast, took 4 blankets out to air on the clothesline.
Next: clean out my car. Again! 😩

Good afternoon sue and ohblondie!
Sue, I hope you get a taker for your bike, and ohblondie, I hope your aunt's okay.
I did go to the library, then I came home and watered a lot of the 1st floor plants. I don't see them as much so sometimes they wait longer for water than the upstairs ones.
I only got one thing ready to mail, it was the most important, some catalogues I'm sending to my shopping friend because it will be a while before her computer gets hooked up so she has no internet yet. She desperately needs some things and can't get to the store to get them.
When I took the dog out this morning, I brought the clippers and rake and clipped down a lot of the vines. I guess I can't have vines, because the ones I don't want wind around the ones I do want and are impossible to remove, and they choke each other out. And once the garden is planted in the spring, I won't be able to have easy access to the fences, so I won't be able to spend a lot of time differentiating between vines. I also removed some more nightshade from under the porch, and then I raked some of the dead grass up. The piles were sitting next to the tilled area in a long row, I'm raking the dry dead parts out each day and stirring up the rest, so that the top part keeps drying and I can remove it. Well, last night the neighbor put her sprinkler on, and set it so that it came into my yard about 8 feet--so it got all the piles of grass wet again. Today I spread them all out all over the lawn so they can dry.
I can't imagine what that neighbor's water bill is, she's trying to keep her grass in the back from getting brown--it's a lost cause when there have literally been two five minute rains in the last 2 months.
Then I came in and ate lunch and took a reading break.
TO DO:
Clean up from lunch, put dry dishes away Update lists Restock water in fridge Delete 30 emails

I spent a long time (relatively speaking) in the yard, there was shade and it wasn't too bad out there so I got my kneeling pad and a bucket and picked up some stones from the dirt. It will take about a hundred more sessions, but at least I started. I did some raking, and harvested some Agastache seeds. That required collecting them in a little container and then letting the insects back out of the container when I noticed them (including a few teeny, tiny light green spiders).
Now I think I'm going to eat my dessert before my dinner (ice cream) since it will cool me off.
