Busyness

 September 26th

Just after sunrise.

It was a day with a couple of, “Maybe I shouldn't do this.”  Here are some happy things:

• A friend made some monkey bread that didn't come out the way they wanted.  I thought it was delicious, but I like doughy things. 
• After weeding more and adding some top soil I planted Johnny Jump-up seeds in part of the triangle portion of the driveway.  Supposedly they can be planted this time of year and return next year. 🤞
• Bel fixed the weedwacker and I went after a bunch of grass and things out by where we used to throw weapons.  It is a start.  I stopped when I noticed the bees.  That is when I decided that cutting down so much pollinating golden rod could wait.  

At this point, I had cleared a pathway between the targets.

Most of what I cleared was behind and around the targets.  

A catbird in an autumn olive tree.

• At Craft Night I worked on the Viking apron dress. The only thing I have left to do is to make the straps.  I have finished everything else I think.  If I get creative, I might embellish it with some embroidery later.

• After bringing out my loom and attempting to tablet weave, I realized the error of my ways.  I ended up taking out a couple of rows instead before putting it away again.  I'm glad I tried, but my back started hurting right away.  I'll need to find a more comfortable position next time.
