Has gone by since my last post. And what have I done?
On Tuesday I posted our votes for Saturday's State Election:
On Wednesday we took a trip to Clarkesdale Bird Sanctuary so a couple of blokes could play with tractors. I amused myself by wandering round looking for interesting iNaturalist observations. I found mainly insects, but here's an orchid (bud) I found at home before we went:
Diuris sulphurea, or tiger orchid.Thursday was my son's birthday, but I could only talk to him by phone. His housemate has caught covid, and although my son has tested negative so far, he is not socialising. He doesn't want to do anything to contribute to spreading it around. So here's a picture of us on his birthday in 2008:
We were having dinner at an Indian restaurant that is sadly gone.
The rest of the week included:
- An exciting bud forming on my hippeastrum:
- Getting used to an older and slower laptop, which I am using until I can replace my poor dropped and shattered one.
- Sewing sashing to my heart blocks:
- Not starting the latest Bonnie Hunter mystery. I took a look around my sewing room and listed all the things that I could see that needed work. I'll be working to finish a few of those before I start anything new!
- Watching the election results unfold on Saturday night.
- Walking the dogs on days when it wasn't raining (not many), and doing my steps on the treadmill when it was.
Maybe the next week will be more exciting?
