A quiet day

Headed to the greenhouse today to pick up a small container of peat moss for Mardi's cactus.  Interesting that when we lived on Gateshead and the plant got a northern exposure it bloomed at Hallowe'en.  Since it now gets a western exposure it appears to be heading towards a more traditional Christmas blooming time.  We'll see how that goes.

-------------------------------------------

While I was there, it was much too wet to get the mower going, so I spent an hour or so reorganizing the tool cart.  I think that demons come in at night and move the tools around - particularly the socket wrenches and sockets.  Never put back in the right slot.

The other problem with tools not put back where they are supposed to be is that when you have an urgent need and can't find the tool, it's easier to just go out and buy another one.  Thus we have almost thirty screw drivers.

----------------------------------------

No ball game tonight so we watched the Presidential debate.  The Moderator did a better job tonight than the first one, but Trump did his best to look ridiculous.  Nevertheless, the Republican leaning TV analyst still thought he did a good job.  Let's hope the polls have it right!

-----------------------------------------

Tomorrow we were supposed to play golf at MontHill but they are still closed due to the coronavirus cases they experienced.  So we're heading to wine country with Matt and Maureen instead.  Should be a lot less stressful!

------------------------------------------

David is complaining that it took me sixty years to tell him "life is short - break the rules".  There are some things that just come naturally for David that I didn't have to explain!

-----------------------------------------

Stay well.
