Good morning, Chicklets! I was up bright and early but was waiting for my laptop to install some updates, which took forever. So I took my mug of coffee and walked around the garden while I was waiting.
Ruth, is Disney still worrying that poor rug? It does keep her busy, but I hope she doesn't start on the pretty one on the front porch. I was hoping your leg was about healed by now. Did you have the doctor look at it? I have 3 lovely eggplants sitting here on the windowsill and have been wondering what to do with them. Ratatouille sounds good, I'll have to look up my recipe. I have several more coming on the plants, too, and am thinking of dehydrating them.
Matilda, I'm glad you're having some breakthoughs and hope it makes life a lot less stressful for you.
Cyndi, there's nothing more restorative than a good night's sleep to put things in perspective. You sound like you're in a good place about your decision with your job.
I had a pleasant afternoon yesterday with Amber and her friend, who came over to swim. Their summer is about over with their school starting on Monday, and they're trying to squeeze the last few precious vacation days out of it. Most of the other schools around here don't start until the 29th, though. Later, Dustin, Andrea and Tyler came over and brought supper to cook on the grill, and we had a nice evening.
I don't have any set plans for today, but the kitchen floor needs a good mopping and I want to go through the house with the dustcloth. I really should harvest the beets, too, but I just don't feel like dealing with them right now. Next year, I don't think we'll plant as many.
