Hi Potties - still not much news here.
Katie - Boy did you get lucky with your Outback. Usually if you expect a charge of several $100 then you'll be blessed to get out for under $1K. Glad you were the lucky exception.
Your comment about finding clothes to donate got me to thinking - I have lots of clothes I should sort thru & bag up some to donate. I'm sure I can find some & it would open up some drawer space. Still have a lot of clothes at the old house that I need to sort thru & bring over here to wash & bag for a trip to GW. I nearly have a load to take that way & this would almost make a special trip worth the time. I haven't been over to the old house in over a week - trying to give the vermin a chance to move on - but I'm starting to put together a list of things to bring back & I may put clothes on the top of the list.Marson - I've had caladiums in some of my planters in recent years & my good intentions of drying them thru the winter have never come to pass. Maybe this year will be the year I get motivated & as soon as frost kills the leaves I can get myself to take them up & store them in the cat bathroom for the winter. It would be nice to not have to buy new ones every year.
Wishing you a Happy Thanksgiving in advance.Gordon - the weather has been nice enough that I've neither needed the a/c or the furnace in recent weeks. I'm seeing the mold issue in more places than just shoes. I'm finding a start on some of the wooden furniture so I need to polish furniture & clean glass to stave off the problem. I keep meaning to call my a/c guy about a dehumidifier & forgetting until after his normal hours. Maybe I'll remember one day soon.
We've had several days of warm, dry weather so I've spent a total of 6-8 hrs. in the big flower bed at the top of the hill. I finally took today off since it sprinkled a bit this morning. I'm hoping to get back up there Wed. afternoon to get a couple of hours in - the weather thru Fri. is supposed to be dry & fairly warm so a couple of hours a day could do quite a bit of good. We're supposed to get scattered showers on Sat. & the weather is to turn chilly. The lows are being forecast in the high 40's to mid-50's which won't help my impatiens.
So proud of our Atlanta Braves - tonight they won the game that enables them to move on in the playoffs. It took a homer in the 8th inning but a last minute win beats losing any day of the week. Also a good week for the college football teams I follow. Boise State beat the ranked BYU team & the UGA Bulldogs beat long time rival Auburn to take over 1st place in the college football rankings for the 1st time since 1980. Still a lot of season left but I'll take a good week any time we get one.
Got a load of wash to move to the dryer & then may feed the land sharks a bit early so I can move on to the current book. Everybody take care - hope all have a bit of nice early Fall weather to enjoy. Later.
Susan
