Watch Joules blink and see the day zoom past...
Although it did so reasonably successfully. Got a little client site stuff done this morning before we all took a break in the garden, Kai to weed, Ken to shunt paving slabs around for me (three to extend the paved patch with the blueberries, three at the door end of the greenhouse so I can reach the water safely, and three inside the greenhouse under the high staging, for plants I take inside over night. That's all the paving slabs we bought in Focus' sale now homed) and me to tidy/tend greenhouse (again).
Then Kai and I had to trudge up the hill for dental checkups. Dentist was delighted that the root canal tooth is looking good, and was generally pleased with the state of my mouth. Not so happy for Kai: she's referring him to an orthodontist and he'll probably need braces to shift the misaligned teeth - one on each side - into place. He's less than enthusiastic about it, apparently sprogs with braces are teased (though not as badly as sprogs who wear glasses. What the hell is the matter with this bloody species? Even as a sprog myself I always imagined how I'd feel if I was on the receiving end and refused to do it...) Will report back once we know what's happening.
While at Broadwalk we did the shops, which was moderately successful. It was gone five by the time we got back though, with just enough time for me to organise the netting around the blueberries (a bit makeshift, I'll need to redo it when I have more time) and make dinner before cleaning the bathroom. Then we watched the directors cut of The Abyss. The day was busy, I'm tired, and my legs are killing me!
Folks up tomorrow, though not sure what time. Not having Lee to chivvy along will probably mean an earlier than usual arrival. So I suppose I should try for an early night.
Yeah right...
