Sunday! Work day!

The problem with travelling is all the "stuff" that doesn't get done at home and sits waiting for your return. STLE seems to always occur in that one week in May when all living things go "sproing" and either sprout or leap up to hip height. This year was no exception.

So today:

I woke up at 6 (well, the dogs woke me up), did my online stuff, bathed, dressed and ate a little breakfast. Out the door with the dogs for a 3 mile walk about 9 am. We met about 6 friendly dogs along the way, recommended a new "poop bag" to the city, and made sure that the city hasn't changed in a week.

Home.

Mowed the lawn, raked up the patches of dead grass (they are about 1/3 of the lawn), spread some seed and watered it in.

Break for lunch.

Watered the pots on the deck, fed everything with fish emulsion, picked some rhubarb for a pie.

Now for a nap. The dogs are crashed on the tile (a sure sign of summer... dogs on the cool floor). Maybe some weeding later today.

What's for dinner? Grilled Chicken Salad with grilled vegetables, fresh lemonade, fresh strawberries and angelfood cake.
