It's been a lovely day that turned into a blustery grey evening... but did I care.... noooo... I have been up to my elbows in poop... and soil. It's been wonderful. All day I've been working on "My Deck" and planting all the annuals for my potted deck garden. I still have two pots left to do but it is now raining so I'm in until the rain stops unless it doesn't... and then I'm in until tomorrow. I have my carrots in the ground too, and Teapot almost has the area for the beets, beans and peas ready. Potatoes.... well, I'm not sure how that is going to happen, but I'm hoping that we'll get time next weekend. Teapot and Daughter #2 are going on a camping trip down river, this weekend, with the work ethic and academics honour kids. Daughter #1 was supposed to go... but with her arm in a sling she's opting not to go canoeing since paddling would be dreadfully difficult. Instead she is going to be in a Run for Cancer research in FSJ. Me?.... I'm spinning for the 150 hour project. This weekend will be the make or break... by Monday I will know if I will require an extension on the level 4... we'll see. (I'm thinking that an extension is very likely.. urgh!)
Squeeky (the cat) had a f---ng kitten, (just one thank God) night before last. I didn't do anything nasty to it either. Suffice it to say she almost had her kitten on my chest. It was only when I realized that the hunching up she was doing was not exercises but an effort to push out a kitten. It was then that I figured maybe having Squeeky on my chest and stroking her might not be the best idea at the time. I promptly got a box for her and a nice clean towel and figured that maybe she would be best off by herself... I went to bed and slept, while below Squeeky passed her evening suffering the consequences of being a slut. She has been a good Mom and with some luck there has been someone willing to take the wretched thing when it is old enough... Damn Cat! Hi ho, hi ho, it's to the vet we go... in a few weeks.... when we get rid of this blasted kitten. Argh!
Well, it looks like the rain has stopped so I am off to finish my deck planting.... hope you're having a nice day where you are.... and to my Aunt A.... hope you are feeling well soon... walk on, oh Steel Hipped One.
