What Was I Thinking

Had breakfast and watched some of the news.  Carol has an appointment with Dr. Gross at 10:15 this morning.  I paid a few bills on line and prepared a deposit.  I couldn't start my weed eater so in put it in the car would not forget it.  We then drove to Fillmore for her appointment.  She went into the Dr.'s office I then left to take care of my business.  The first stop was at Penny's to have my weed eater fixed.  He was with another customer so I had to wait for ten to fifteen minutes.  He took it and gave the rope one pull and it started right up.  Several times earlier I pult the crank rope until my arm was tired and it would not start

There is and off on switch which is always in the on position.  To stop it, you push the switch to the off position and the engine stops.  I think that sometimes it sticks to the off position.  He made a few adjustments and was working really well.

I then went to the credit union where I made a deposit.  The next stop was at Zion's Bank where I made an interest and principle payment.  I then went back to the Dr.'s office.  Carol was still waiting. It was after eleven after she had seen the doctor.  We then went the market for some groceries and then to the Service Drugstore for some medication.  She also bought some birthday cards.  We then came home.  After a quick lunch. I shredded more papers.

My shredder was nearly full.  I shredded a few other papers and put them around some tomato plants that I planted a couple of days ago.  It is my desire that the weeds will not grow through the layer of shreds.

While I was waiting I read from the Better Home and Garden magazine.  There were some recipies using rhubarb.   I took a picture, but it is not legible.

I also took a picture of this small side table.  I have a lot of tile pieces that I could use if I made a similar table.

This little magazine shelf which hangs on the wall would be handy for current magazines that we have.

I got the weed eater going and cut the weeds along the road south of the street from the east to the west.

The copper rose on the west side of our yard looks and smells good.

I started to dig a lot of weeds.  I was not able to spray them because if has been so wet all of the time.

There were some shrubs and a dead elderberry bush that I needed to remove.  The almond tree had several dead limbs that was in my way.  I cut two honey suckle shrubs at ground level and painted the cut edges with round-up. I also cut down wild rose bush.  I brought over the shredder pointed in the west direction.  I turned on the ignition switch and pulled the crank rope and it started on the first pull.

Late this evening I planted a bunch of eggplants in house six.  The photo is somewhat clouded.  I don't know why.
