Tuesday I poked around outside a little bit, deadheading daylilies and pruning the yews.
Wednesday I was able to get out to the library for our A&S discussion on definitions of color in the medieval era with Natalia. At the same time I continued working on my inkle loom and got halfway through the current purple/yellow piece I set in the loom last week.
Thursday and Friday I finally fired up my 'Get her done!' and worked on the compost piles and veggie beds. I also carried out a few more boxes to the garage for the sale.
Saturday I was sorting stuff in my bedroom putting away summer SCA gear and making room for the Gold Key totes. When I went to my closet to get my shoe-case the closet pole crashed to the floor. I hadn't touched it; just all three supports failed! Cleared everything out of the closet to the living room sofa, studied the situation and figure I can fix it myself.
Sunday Leofwyna pretty much finished her front yard project removing the flower beds she'd put in fifteen years ago. All that's left now is the forsythia and the thyme bushes and a volunteer maple we're encouraging. While she dealt with that I mowed two-thirds of the yard, leaving the zoysia in front for another day. For a wonder it's stayed green this year with the nicely spaced rainfall all through the summer but growth does seem to be slowing some.
Monday Leofwyna declared a holiday with pizza and root beer floats while we watched 9-11 programs. We also taped programs on stations we weren't watching. My favorite was the one about a photographer who revisited the folks she'd met and photo'd those days. Another favorite was the French photographers who were already taping the fire department that was first on-site on 9-11. I did get out while Leofwyna was sleeping and bought what I needed for the closet repair.
Tuesday and I'm down sick with a sinus crud. Blech!
And naturally a portion of every day is still applied to job searches and genealogy research.
