Oh man, one of the neighbors must have major sewage issues. City was out with the snake truck, but it just left and an even bigger truck labeled 'RamJet' arrived.
By the time I got back from my swim, there were enough new leaves for another bag if I were so inclined. I was not.
But the kitchen is now mopped.
Jesse, sounds like a good visit.
'RamJet'
Eek!
I swept up a barrel+ of leaves yesterday, and I definitely should have done more. After Tuesday, we'll have two empty yard waste barrels at least -- there was a barrel in the garage with yard waste from years past still in it! Oy.
Now I have a pot pie in the oven. (Not a frozen one in a tinfoil pan; a from-scratch-takes-over-an-hour-to-prep-and-cook homemade pot pie.) It needs to be ready NOW.
Yeah, that's one of the problems with the disposal thing. Once you figure out what you want, you want it NOW! NOW! NOW!
For the last 5 houses on the block , front, alley and side, we got 8 bags. And these are just the preliminaries. Our trees are still full of green leaves.
I gave myself a blister on my nondominant hand. Leaves or vacuuming, who knows.
TJ's blue cheese and pecan dip
Ooooh. Tell me more of this!
I had a bowl of bow-tie pasta with butter for dinner because I was just that lazy. But then S. picked Ben up from work and came home with DQ for me!
Tell me more of this!
It is delicious! And especially with the pumpkin and cranberry crackers. And will be my dinner tomorrow.
And NOW, thanks to you people, I have a ticket to Frankenstein on Wednesday!
Ooh, now I think I want to bring dip and crackers to one of my potlucks coming up (three in the next two weeks, I am not ready).
Popeyes drive-through achieved. That dinner was probably as much food as I usually eat in a day; I am very full. Nom nom nom.
I just saw Frankenstein with JLM as creature version last week. Two years after I saw the other version. Contrary to popular opinion, I enjoyed this version more. The lighting design is still the standout part though.
Oh really? I believe my choices are Cumberbatch-as-creature tomorrow and Miller-as-creature on Wednesday. I
really
don't think I can manage both.
