The Garden Peon
made TWO trellises! I used the rebar I bought last year and two wire window planters that were lying around. I cut the planters so I could spread them mostly flat and used strips of leather left over from Wolf's SCA projects to lash them to the rebar. They sunk nicely into the ground and I planted cucumbers right next to them. I also planted a row of broccoli and watered everything. I forgot to do the Grow Dance from My Neighbor Totoro. I'll do that tomorrow, as Looooo and Handy BIL are coming over with a small chain saw to cut down the invasive trees and help me plant the azalea. I teased Mama A about it and she defended her actions, as I knew she would. I told her next year, just get me succulents or something small to keep on the dining room table, as I don't have the patience for demanding, high watering plants like azaleas. Or basil. She wanted the azalea right in the middle of my front flower bed. I am putting it in the back yard in the destroyed flower bed, because the front porch needs to be fixed and I will not allow tall plants next to the house EVER AGAIN. Azaleas around here can get six feet high or more if you're not careful.
IDK(Indestructo-kiddo) and I also got the house mostly picked up and swept, all the laundry done and he's doing dishes to earn television time. Cuteness is currently taking her turn to play Disney Infinitive 2.0, because she likes to decorate the Avengers Mansion. IDK likes to play the game.
I have eight bottles of wine for Memorial Day weekend and I will need to pick up lots of veggies Thursday after work. We're leaving Friday after work. I'm looking forward to it.
I'll be honest, LJ-land, the last few days have been the best I've had since Wolf died. I'm happy, I'm not beating myself up for being happy, Jazz has settled in as Our House Cat, which was the only thing missing. A boyfriend is no substitute for a cat. I'll have to remember that. (^_^)

Will we have time to order Chinese food before we leave on Friday night? If we do I would like Chicken with Cashews, fried pork dumplings, a pork egg roll, and a package of crispy noodles.
You're getting expensive again. (^_^)
I have risotto kindly donated from lunch today and there's a lot of it. Well, a lot for my family's appetite. I am donating it for Friday night food. Feel free to help yourself. (^_^)
