Ode to sprinklers

I am going through sprinklers at a rapid pace.


Not that this needs to concern you, but be warned. If you are coming over to see the house. The likeihood that the lawn will be yellow/brown is increasing with each passing hour it receives no water.

My old reliable yellow has stopped moving.

Kaput.

See ya. It last watered one continous one time too many.

So, this evening I went with the hose hole option.

No luck.

Now, I am searching for the new ones we got a couple of weeks ago. They are certainly lost somewhere.

Hmmm. Not so much as exciting as most things.

Songs going through my head.

Been away, I know - no excuses - just have been here and there.

Good grief, I have songs that have been stuck in my head for days now. Not that I mind. But when I am working, people come by as I am trying to work them out and ask me a lot of questions. So, I am unable to listen to my Zune and enjoy them as much as I wish. The Shins are really under my skin lately....

Kathy is smart

Well, you actually probably already knew that. But now we have proof. Kathy walked across stage to much applause and music. All that hard work for a nice picture and fun headaches. Kathy has pledged her newly found free time will be spent carefully reorganizing shelves, drawers, file folders, mulch, bird eggs, velcro straps, and much more most likely volunteer work, other things besides singing.

We will be celebrating soon and hopefully you were invited. If not, well, nothing personal, but I sent it out- so not that things went perfectly, but let us know as it most likely a email issue. Yes, I blame email for things. Those evil doers.....


Remodel.

We have added some nicities latetly. We finally finished putting some tile baseboard in the kitchen. It was surprisingly nice to do. We ran into a couple of problems with some gaps in the floor that we did not anticipate. We added a piece on the bottom to help with those gaps.

All in all it went well. Our next projects involve the outside of the house mostly the flowers need to get set-up, though it has been a banner year for the pernials. I will get some of that up this weekend on the blog.
