08-07-22 Curtains
I slept well and long enough, awoke to accomplish some chores in the house and then headed outside to deal with my nasty pool. I haven’t been maintaining it properly and on top of it, little miss Emmy came down with hand foot and mouth disease and she was in it last weekend. I left it covered and intended to get chemicals and deal with it sooner but by the time I opened it up this afternoon, it was pretty green, sigh. I had bought a kit yesterday to shock it so I followed the directions and have to wait 48 hours to see how it worked. I seriously hope I don’t have to refill it, such a waste of water. I will perhaps have a greener lawn though, so that would be an advantage.
I slept through the cool part of the day so didn’t get the lawn mowed, again. I had tried to start my weed eater last time I was doing lawn maintenance but it wouldn’t run. I need to trim the lawn edges more than mow but it will have to wait for another day. My roses have recovered from the deer attacking them and I am still getting a few raspberries daily which is a blessing.
Through late afternoon and evening I took down one of the ceiling swag curtains in the trailer and put the beautiful piece of material I picked up at Fabricland. I then spent the rest of the time making two new curtains out of it for the side windows as they got some mildew stains I can’t get out. I haven’t sewn in a while but it was very enjoyable. They are not fully finished on all edges but I have a guest for the whole week so I had to get them finished ‘enough’ and hang them.
I made a Hello Fresh meal for the first in a long time, California Style Fish Tacos and it was so great in the texture and taste department. I will see how well that transfers to my lunch tomorrow, though.
While I was doing all the indoor things today I watched the limited series on Netflix, Inventing Anna. It do is something that would be completely unbelievable if it wasn’t true.
