It rained last night, and we really needed rain. It made the topsoil pile a little muddy, but the weather was cloudy the whole day and there was sometimes a slight breeze, so I was able to get both raised beds completely filled. They are ready to plant.
Ah, but we need seeds, right? And we got seeds – at the little local HomeHardware store.
Then Stuart got a call from South Carolina, which he answered for the lark of it, and it turned out to be Lowe’s (the hardware store chain) to tell him the microwave we ordered was at the Ottawa store ready for pick-up.
We got a little cleaning done in the garage. There was a large, broken snowblower in the back corner that we got to the curb, along with some other pieces of metal and junk. We hoped that someone would recycle it, and, yes, a woman driving a pickup truck filled with mostly metal junk rang the doorbell and asked for assistance getting the thing up into her truck. She collects the stuff and her husband fixes things. Maybe he will fix the snowblower. It doesn’t need to go to the dump, anyway.
And to top it off, the batch of yoghurt turned out great, and the little red squirrel was cuter than ever.
There were things that were not perfect today, but I will take these good things. Be well. Stay safe. Treasure the good things.
