Espa\u00f1ol!
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

OYB!
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Work week!
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

Love my girls!
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

Stopped at QT on the way back to my house. Gas is thirty cents cheaper!
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

Still figuring out the logistics for the trip.
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

Went by Walmart to pick up more distilled water. K uses it for her CPAP machine and for my plants. I got eleven gallons.
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

Used my Gorilla Cart to transport all that water to my room via my back door. I inflate the tires from time to time. I LOVE my cart.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Always some bill stuff to deal with.
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Cleaned off the deck and watered all the plants.
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Picked up Everly’s bike from Aztec Cycle in Stone Mountain.
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

We tried to go to the German Bakery but it was closed this week. Went to Hot and Cold instead. Penelope in particular really eats well there. She likes the hibachi grill. They had fun trying the different sauces.
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Art projects when we got home.
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

Did a big job of cleaning the comforter that we keep on the couch on our front porch. Mixed up the oxyclean and soaked it and scrubbed it.
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Brought it up to my driveway to really scrub it hard. Hit it with dish detergent and comet. Man, was I every sweaty after that job.
\n\"\"
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Drying it out. The water gathers at the bottom and I wring it out as much as possible.
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

I have two, fifty foot hoses that I have connected together. They usually burst after about three months of use. I have two so I only have to replace half at a time. I have a lifetime guarantee on the hoses which I’ve replaced about seven times. The quality continues to deteriorate each year.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Grandgirls, Jessi and I leave for Texas tomorrow. I got us checked in and printed our boarding passes. When I check my suitcase (which contains the girl’s stuff as well) They usually give us new boarding passes, but I’m so old school I still like a ticket. I have this on my phone as well so I’m not THAT old school!
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

These are the culmination of my pollination project with the Venus Fly Traps! These shiny black seeds actually contain many even smaller seeds. I’m letting them dry out completely. I have the peat moss and vermiculite ready to mix and sow the seeds when I get back from Texas. It’ll be something that I’ve never tried before in my over fifty years of growing these little plants.
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

Gave myself a fresh haircut and shave before my trip.<\/p>\n

Released a new episode of Verbal Surgery “Normalized.” <\/a> “this evening.<\/p>\n
