its been a long exhausting day...
We were up early to work in the yard, now that the mornings are in the 60's and tolerable...Brian went after this gigantic grapevine that's been growing all over the electric and cable lines...and I planted bluebonnet seeds, removed grass and weeds and cleaned up the rose trellis and deadheaded the rose bushes...needless to say, even tho it was cool out, we still wore ourselves out...and to make things more fun and interesting, Jack and Chloe's sister seems to have a small, 6 wk old orange offspring that was hiding in our garden hose box...we tried to catch him, but he was too fast for us...but he's on our radar, and we'll be taking her in to be fixed, and try to get him (or her) adopted out while he/she is still cute and fluffy...man, really cute...tiny...but speedy...
The grapevine is now dying, it looks all shriveled and brown...which is good, that means the weight isn't pulling on the cables...
After we took naps and had dinner and watched football, we've come upstairs to dig thru our Halloween stuff...its not as much as we thought, and we've even created a new box to donate...most of it will be displayed indoors, since we still only have the one outlet, but we'll fix that by next year, I'm sure...its just as well, I don't want to draw a lot of attention down our street, I like the privacy and fact that not a lot of folks drive down here...why light it up like Las Vegas, right? So, I think we'll put the 3 giant pumpkins out, the same 3 we put out last year and some tombstones and I'm not sure what else...and we'll just keep most of the plug in/light up stuff inside and enjoy it ourselves...
And that's been our day...tomorrow is catfood/litter, IKEA, and I'm not sure what else (Target?)...breakfast at the local diner and then hit the road...I think I need to go get a bath before I fall asleep...see ya'll another time...
