a small relief

for my poor long stuffed and achy sinuses--not much but a bit
and the heat kicked on this morning?
wtf?
oye
in other news, new jackass neighbor who may not be a jackass but we'll see.......is taking down the privacy fence. oh man there goes MY privacy........but at least my chain link is there
i am hoping that he puts it up a bit closer so that his dog doesn't try to dig under
if not i am going to start some evergreens over there
i dont' want his dog to see my ducks or it's going to be a mess.

we had horrid rain yesterday, so i threw malcom in with the little girls........BIG mistake
he had pru IN the water, actually UNDER the water while he had his way with her.....and stripped all the feathers off her back and some feathers off the neck of amelia so no more women for malcom

basically then, what do i need him for?
duck rape is not what i want going on

today is sunny so i am going to get out there and muck pens i think,
i seeded more lettuce in the upper deck planters (which caused the cessation of rain naturally)
i hoed out some of the damn burdock that bernie didn't listen about and allowed to go to seed in the lawn.......gee thanks bernie
pernicious and deep rooted weeds are what i always wanted in my garden- i am going to put some vinegar on the roots and see where we get
and yes i do know we can eat them...... oye
oh and btw, i like this stirrup hoe of mine......did a pretty good job!

i am still knitting on that hat to match damask......i bought a pattern off ravelry from france......why the hell did i bother? i had to really just do my own thing and just barely almost get near to sorta following the pattern.......
first off i didn't even notice that the pattern wasn't written for knitting in the round......hahahaha
i knit it in the round
then it had cast on 104 ..........nope you need at least 138 for a head in doubled sock yarn......oye
really it was me being too lazy to figure it out on my own
and yes i have gotten spoiled and lazy
so many good young designers with excellent pattern writing skills.. well this particular hat pattern really isn't worth the price
i like the hat design but the pattern really is poorly written
and there is a much better way to knit it then following the pattern
oye

well everyone i hope you are all safe, and happy
i am going to start my day (late i know)

see yous all tomorrow......
vi
