I would never make a water garden for myself, but if someone gave me one, I would be super happy. Happy coworkers are helpful coworkers so I say go for it. So not much happened here today. Hubs filed the homestead paperwork on our home and I’m not sure how I feel about it. This lowers our property taxes and freezes it at 2027 rates. Property taxes pay for things I use on a regular basis and I don’t mind paying my fair share. Except so much taxpayer money is being diverted to charter schools and land for data centers that I’m not so happy to pay for. We found a parking spot where I could watch the door while I waited and I was happily surprised at the constant stream of people going in. (Saturday, many of us wore our “I voted early” stickers to the rally. I felt like one of the in crowd.) He also dropped off a lot of snubbed catfud at the kitty rescue, I dropped off a box of period supplies to the woman’s shelter and he voted. That kinda surprised me, he usually wants to stand in line on election day and I’m the one who always votes early. The **[Pumpkin House](https://www.loganbanner.com/news/pumpkin-house-features-over-2-400-pumpkins/article_ad956be4-95ea-11ef-9529-ab9786433a2a.html)** had the decorations out but the lights weren’t on. That’s a better picture than I would have been able to get had we been able to stop but there wasn’t any parking available. I bid on a couple of pieces in the ANG auction, it was disappointing that there were so few counted kits, everyone is going to painted and printed canvas now and I hates them. I let one go and won the other, so I paid for that today. ---

so best laid plans to RDOS came to naught. Shortly after I last posted, I received a phone call from the parish office staff. Not sure if I mentioned yesterday but while I was at the funeral mass, I felt that I would like to volunteer to help with the funeral ministry so I called when I returned from the luncheon and left a voice message. The staff said I needed to come to pick up a paper that explains the tasks that are part of the funeral assistant ministry. So I called the pharmacy to see if/when the antibiotic ointment would be ready and was told 20 minutes. I had already been researching the few offices that I hadn’t filled out on my ballot so quickly completed that so I could kill 3 birds with one stone. first I stopped at the parish office and picked up the guidelines for funeral assistants. next I drove to the pharmacy and picked up the prescription. the clerk was about to put it in a plastic bag and I said no bag please. Then I thought for a second and asked for one of their largest paper bags as that’s what I keep Hubs prescriptions in but the current one (which is the second) had torn almost halfway down the side. So, I was glad to be able to replace that. Then I drove to the City Clerk’s office and handed in both of our ballots. Yay I VOTED!!! As I was driving home, I thought hey, it’s such a nice day and the leaves are really turning, I should walk in the woods. The local woods is right on the way home so I pulled into the parking lot. On the way to the trail I passed the new pirate themed playscape that is being installed. Since it was just after noon, all the workers were sitting in their vehicles so I took the opportunity to go through the fence opening and walk all around it. It will be magnificent for the children; should be at $1.5M. Then I crossed the bridge over the river to access the trail and didn’t go too terribly far down it. First I came across a very small side path that someone had put LED tea lights on along with a plastic hanging lantern and at the end of the tea lights was a brown paper floral wrapped package of peach roses on the ground. Many of the tea lights had burnt out and were not exactly lined up nicely. I was wondering if it was perhaps a proposal gone wrong. I cannot tell a lie, I took one of the roses. So I continued on and turned onto the little known path that goes through the deepest part of the forest. I hadn’t gone more than a short distance when BF texted and asked if I wanted to walk this afternoon. Long story short (which isn’t normal for me) I turned around, we met up at my house then she drove to the Lakeview Trail that Bella and I had hiked on Sunday. Today we went the entire way 3.8 miles. The trees were even more gorgeous than on Sunday, pretty gosh darn close to peak. We also happened upon a deer. We stopped as soon as I spotted her and we all looked at each other then we backed away and went back a little until we could join up with the return part of the trail. This hike was very good for both of our souls! I’ve eaten my leftovers; see below. Hubs will have to forage. He got home about 15 minutes after I did. He had gone to some movie, Heart of the Beast. He enjoyed it. Now he’s taking a nap and I’m about to be a RDOS. Although DWTS tonight! (unfortunately Disney night; my friend and I think that Disney night has jumped the shark) **red** my Mom used a 13 x 9 pyrex cake pan to make her pineapple upside down cakes. **FCM** supper is leftover turkey loaf, sweet potato and cucumbers dipped in garlic spread. ---

I was wondering if it was perhaps a proposal gone wrong. I cannot tell a lie, I took one of the roses. There’s a story there … but I’d have taken a rose, too. Better you get to enjoy it, than it rotting away in the dark woods. { _dramatic emo pose of anguish_ } * * * Went out for a few minor errands, including what I hoped was a quick stop at Walliest of Worlds. How, my friends, can you run a giant supermarket and be _completely_ out of lemons (one of the main things I came in for.) Then, since on my way out I saw a lady stocking produce, I asked politely if maybe they had more lemons that just came off the truck & hadn’t been stocked yet? She said, “Oh, they’re out there, we have them in bags.” No, sugarplum. You have bags of oranges, and limes. > 🎶 two of these things > > is not like the other one 🎵 Had to make a special stop over at Meijer just for friggin’ lemons. While doing so, the guy behind me got pulled over, right in my rear view, so that was a brief, minor panic. (Sucks to be him, but better thee than me.) I better make this dang snack! ---

Howdy Y’all! I laundered but didn’t iron. Future me will not like present me very much, but he’ll deal. RDOS sloth did indeed take up the rest of the day as even sup was nuked leftovers.

> [@SCAdian](#): > > This place is a little strange – bins are provided and emptied by private companies, not the town. Not strange at all, that’s how my town does it too, all competing garbage companies that you have to pay $25~28 a month to haul away trash. Recyclables are another $10-12 a month and during 8 months of the grass/leaves year another $15 to haul away clippings and leaves. I just do the required (you’ll get cited if you don’t) garbage bin weekly-as a house of one I just dont create enough to justify extra for recycling. When I have gathered enough recyclables and cardboard I can drop those off at the 6-8 public recycle lots around the city-it takes me months to collect enough recyclables to cart them there. Cardboard boxes are the bane there, they cant go in the $25 a month bin. Have to be broken down and taken to a city site or pay separately. ---

Evening all. As predicted, mostly lazed around the house this morning, spent several hours at the gym this afternoon, and then coached soccer for about 90 minutes. Came home to some Mac-n-Cheese to fill what was empty and will soon head to the WC to empty what is now full. One of the little nose pads came off my glasses, I bought some replacements but the last bits of the original pads is still in the fixture and won’t come out, so I’ll have to see the optician tomorrow to get it done. No soccer for a couple of days, so will have a little more time to do things. And nearly 30 messages behind, so better get down to it… **JtC** , from the pic, it looks lovely out there. And you both did good on your donations. And ANG? (to me it means Army National Guard, but that doesn’t sound right). **Cat Glove** , never did like the word ‘carcinoma’, but hopefully it’s caught and sounds like it’s treatable. Enjoy the blueberries and the good memories. And a good triple play of getting things done. I can do 3.8 miles, but mostly on the treadmill at the gym, your walk is much nicer. **doggio** , Hopefully spot will find his way back to you sooner than later. **Herald,** my bins are the same for both recycling and regular trash, the recycles are done by a private contractor while trash is done by the city. **wet one** , happy slothing! > [@Die\_Capacitrix](#): > > Why do we need an app? **Dicey** , because everyone needs as many apps as possible all the time (or at least it seems that way sometimes…). **rocky** , ah, the old multiplication issue…hope you can deal with it.
