Snake

 June 12th

Here are some happy things from my day:

• Before going to bed last night I set a series of alarms.  Before lunch I had taken care of the clean dishes and loaded the dish washer with more; washed a load of laundry; pulled, chopped, or sawed random weeds and trees by the house, and got some sun.  One of the trees I should have cut last fall because it seems to have killed some of the roses. 🙄   That particular tree comes up every year no matter how often I cut it.  I'm going to have to get some stuff to stop that.   I'm also going to cut back the roses that seem to have died, just in case they have something left in them.  But, yay productivity!

• After lunch there were other things on my list I wanted to do.   The only thing that actually got finished was my laundry.  I'm okay with this, I was still busy, just helping other people. 

• However, while going from the apartment to the house with my laundry basket there was an accident.  It was sad.  A garter snake tried to come into the apartment while I was going out with my clothes basket.  I didn't see it until the door was already in motion and it got stuck.  I'm so thankful that Corvidae was home and that she is okay with snakes.  She was able to get it from the kitchen where it tried to hide.  Then she made some calls and found a place to bring it.  Now the little thing is hopefully getting better under the care of someone who knows what to do.  The snake should recover and be fine.  

• There are roses in bloom!
