Good morning Rounders! It turned out to be a pretty nice day yesterday. I visited some of my neighbors and took them the canned Loquats & Apples. They gave me the Loquats last year and then another neighbor gave me plenty more and I tried to eat them, but they don't like me. So all year they have set in the cupboard waiting. I knew that my neighbors loved them, so I took them and had a nice visit. The man has been busy building. He has built a wooden deck beside the concrete pad that was already there and it's now a much bigger entertaining space. It has a bar area and a barbeque grill area made of wood. It looks like something I've seen on the DIY channel where they totally redo people's backyards. He trimmed out the bushes next to the Lanai and said he disturbed a 4 ft long snake. It was angry!
Our neighbors that were moving are officially gone. My friend behind me called yesterday and said she has a floater in her eye. I had never heard of that, but I went online and read about it. She has seen an eye specialist and has a return visit in Feb. She said she can see and there is no blurriness or spots or anything.
We ended up just picking up the Rx yesterday. After walking from the car into Publix on that concrete my knees could not take anymore. It's the cold that has them so stiff. So I came home and worked in the garden for a bit and enjoyed the sun. I transplanted about 30 of those Kalanchoe plants. They are so tiny right now and you cannot imagine them getting 5 ft tall and looking so regal, but they do. Next year it will be a showstopper on the Bank.
I noticed the ground mole is back sneaking into the garden, so I had to scoop up some of those grinds from the lawn and put them at the place where he has tunneled in. That should deter him! DH called S Bux yesterday and told them we would be picking up the grinds every Sunday. I decided I really need to work a bunch of them into that sand on the Bank. It needs nourishment big time. It's just pure sand.
I told my neighbor about the coffee grinds for their garden and he had never heard of it. I will take him a phone number today so that they can start picking up grinds. It's way less expensive than buying the Mushroom compost that costs a fortune. No, it's not instant gratification, but it will build your sand into a good rich composted soil eventually. I feel it is my duty to teach them about the benefit of grinds because it is free.
TexMex for dinner. I have nothing planned. We'll see! Peace & Plenty.
