must remember how to fly

I couldn’t upload the pumpkin pic, but she’s getting big.

luke is in the process of getting the scooter, finally.

check out what we got a goodwill.

 it’s a big crossword puzzle, in case you can’t tell.

i’m listening to willie nelson because i’m addicated to the album.
i have an allergy induced headache and my sinuses are packed to the gills.
anyway, the wii is really fun to play, neither of us have hit the other…yet. it is bound to happen.
we should have the paperwork needed to transfer the title on the scooter within the next day or so. we still need to go get a helmet.
*on tuesday luke needed gas and we didn’t have the money in the bank for him to get gas. he doesn’t like to take my car, just in case i might have an emergency or something. so he rode his bicycle. it’s a 4 mile ride, so he didn’t have any problems.*
random side note, don’t ever staple your fingers, it hurts like hell.
there will be a new post at idlewind studios shortly.

luke had a heck of a 30th birthday. he got drums and he got a Wii.

we got our tax stimulus. luke’s drums came. we got 4 “new” cd’s. we went to b-dub’s for dinner.

I am window shopping right now. There are some odd things available for purchase in this world.

Like this sign or this one

How about a sweatshirt for your beer  or a way to get rid of flamingos

Not so much odd, but pricey my favorite is the old westerner.

Luke and I both cut the grass yesterday. He thought that I didn’t do it in the morning. Oh well.
I like using a people-powered mower, it doesn’t mutilate the grass and I can mow if the grass is still a little wet. I doesn’t take any more time than using the gas-powered mower. Speaking of gas…we have a gas-powered trimmer, I can’t use it because I can’t start it. So I dug out the electric trimmer and 100′ extension cord and tried to edge the sidewalk out back, didn’t go well for me. It looks bad. I also hacked the snot out of the very over-grown bushes by the garage. All of that stuff will be burned this weekend, if the weather is clear.
I have one strawberry that is starting to turn pink! The peepers are growing well. The lemon-verbena just smells so good, kind of like lemon flavored PEZ. The rosemary is growing better in their bigger vessels. On Saturday, I planted sage, more rosemary, catnip (again), peas, celery, pumpkins and garden bean seeds. No sprouts quite yet.

The plumbing is fixed. That makes me happy.

first the lawn mower, then the car, now the plumbing.
the toilet won’t flush properly, most of the time. when the tub is draining (from bath or shower) it makes gurgling noises in the drain line for the washer and toilet.
