Ha!
-t, the bleach is good for maintenance, but maybe not any better than baking soda and vinegar.
How did your brain even learn human speech? I'm just so curious.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Hey, just having something different to try was worthwhile. I secretly suspect that I'm going to have replace some pipes to really solve the problem, so whatever I can try before going down that road is good.

I have loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night.
-t thanks for the percentage and the explanation - I don't know that I understand it but at least I know the formula for next time!

I think (hope) I might be PMSing: had a whopping total of two volunteers the other day, so decided to do simple projects, especially since I know the one guy has a bad back.
One of them killed one of my gourd vines, like, all the way down to the ground. Just an hour after I discovered that we had one birdhouse gourd that was about two feet long and texted the picture to the intern who built the arbor and planted the gourd seedlings.
I love my volunteers, and heavily rely on them, but, hey seus, when the numbers get low and I resort to projects more appropriate to small numbers, I remember why sometimes it's not worth it and mulching is the relatively safest task (and even that is fraught with danger).

I have a lot of stuff I want and need to do this long weekend, so maybe it's time for a public to-do list! My grandmother and uncle/aunt will be staying in my apartment next week, so it's got to be clean.
- vacuum (including upstairs - my mother and I made a deal to trade mopping for vacuuming)
- clean bathroom
- dust all
- straighten bedroom
- laundry (including sheets)
- dishes + other kitchen
- work -- reviews + other
- beach
- long walk
- groceries (walk to TJ's?)
- pedicure
- hang mirror, etc.
OK, maybe that's it? I think one load of laundry this morning and deal with the kitchen will be a good start. Vacuum after visiting dad mid-day.

....And it looks like there's a coup in the country where most of my work over the past 8 months has been about working with the government. So that's nice.
