I spent a big part of my day cutting more limbs off of the holly tree and picking up the leaves under it. There were several years of leaves under there, I picked up and I filled a total of 8+ big plastic leaf bags with leaves and little sticks. I plan to put those in the yard debris cans as the trash removal people empty them every two weeks.
Yeah, I know it’s a mess back there, it is on my to-do list to get that looking better, but it is kinda out of sight and will have to wait until I get some other things done first. Roy, you will notice the old refrigerator is gone. ?
The limbs are now loaded on the truck ready to go to the Reece burn pile.
I still have a few leaves to pick up back there but it looks a lot better.
There were a couple of items under the tree that were interesting: a cat collar and a busted cell phone.
One bonus of city water being expensive, the grass doesn’t grow much when you don’t water here in TGNW; don’t have to mow very often. The basic cost of water is $82 a month and goes up from there depending on how much you use. Ugh!
I drove April to the Post Office to mail a package during the afternoon. She still is hesitant to drive the new car.
We took a nap after we got back from the P.O.
Pat and Scott watched their game shows together from 7:00 to 8:00 and we watched TV during the evening.
Today
I don’t have any firm plans for today, maybe I’ll make a run out the Three Dog Farm and unload those limbs on the burn pile.
We haven’t talked about what else we might do.
Weather
It is currently 63º and cloudy with a prediction of sun and 85º high.
That’s all for August 6, keep in touch.
